Anything I Can Get My Hands On: Philippines invades American Idol?

March 11, 2012- Philippines Invades American Idol

While waiting for my friends to text me before going out last Friday, I was glued to the tube and was amazed by Jessica Sanchez rendition of I Will Always Love You.

It hit me when she finished the song with a standing ovation from Jennifer Lopez, Steve Tyler and Randy Jackson. It was a powerful performance and i think she deserved to be among the finalists. And yes, she's a Filipina. Her father is a Mexican-American and her mother is a Filipina from Bataan... Now, she lives in San Diego, California and now amusing the whole American community with her voice...

I stopped watching American Idol years ago... if i could remember, the last American Idol I watched was season 9... after that, i had that feeling of the show as conventionally boring...

Honestly, I miss having and hearing Simon Cowell's comments after each performances... heck, he has his own show now...

Moving on, I guess putting JLo and Steve Tyler in the show sufficed the challenge to impress... I think they make great jurors for the Idol.

So now that a Filipino is in it...I think I'm going to enjoy the excitement and watching the finalist climb the ladder to the top...

Now, isn't it amazing to note that more and more Filipinos are taking the stage of entertainment?

I could proudly say that Filipinos are indeed TALENTED. Right?

If you could remember, there were notable Pinoys who made it in the show...And to name a few...
