American Idol – Top 10 Recap!

So here are my thoughts about the American Idol Top 10. (First a note about Gwen Stephani: her stage persona seems to have nothing to do with the real Gwen. When she was interviewed and talking to the contestants, she seemed very down to earth, sweet, reserved and just darling. On stage, she jumps around [...]

Don’t follow the camera — sing to the audience. (I totally agree!)2. Don’t go into the crowd when you’re performing. It makes you get out of breath.3. Only start [...]
