Asia'H Epperson In American Idol Season 7 Top 24?

While this week will see the start of the elimination rounds of American Idol season 7 that will whittle down the hundreds of contestants and celebrity wannabes to the top 24 that will qualify for the American Idol finals, news of the Top 24 list having been leaked on the Internet has already started and many are trying to find out who qualified for this final round. One sure sign is that any online personal profile page of an American Idol Top 24 finalist will be removed as requested by Fox Network and American Idol. Asia'H Epperson has been one of the first few to receive such attention as her Myspace page has since been removed and celebrity pictures of her are not that easy to find. If you did not notice Asia'H Epperson in the auditions, shame on you. She was one of the sob stories of Season 7, where her dad was killed on her way to the auditions and she pulled through to qualify. Although I personally thought her singing was not that up to par, the judges loved her and thought Asia'H was good enough to go to Hollywood.

Asia'H Epperson's Myspace page has been removed and this is a sure sign that she has qualified for the Top 24. We will bring you more news of Asia'H and other contestants who have stood out and qualified for this prestigious list as the American Idol season 7 show continues this week. You can bet your bottom dollar that many of the singers who have gotten into the Top 24 would be professional singers or those with experience, as American Idol was severely criticised last year for a lack of quality.

Asia'H Epperson is now ranked 14 on Entertainment Weekly's American Idol Power Rankings for week 4, as she steadily moves up the charts. Slammed for her quivering vocals as she struggled to sing properly while holding back her tears, she is expected to move further up on the strength of her sob story. But in time to come, what would be expected more than her voice will be pictures of her growing celebrity status as Asia'H Epperson does have quite a hot body on top of a great singing voice.

But Asia'H Epperson overdoes it on the drama and shouting diva tracks. She must really have thought that she was that good. To be honest, she was already exposed during her very first audition - Asia'H's voice is limited and not suitable for screaming tracks - maybe the slow soft ballads would serve her better.
