Check out my list of the American Idol Season 8 Top 50 HERE.   And then check out Joesplace list, HERE, cause that’s where all the information comes from!

Just a couple of updates:   Lenesha Young, The spunky teen from Cincinnati who auditioned in Louisville with her original tune called “Nati”, is rumored to have made the Top 50.   You’ll remember her backstory–she and the rest of her family were poor and homeless at times.   You can check out her audition HERE.

Also on the list, Jackie Midkiff, who was totally outed by The Knoxville News. Oops. You can read more about him HERE.

And, Houston native, Jacob McKay, is back on the list, with a picture.   Check out his MySpace here.   He’s got no music posted…

Jacksonville auditioners Anne Marie Boskovich and T.K. Hash are also on the list.   More on Anne Marie (with an e?) HERE.

    Not surprised at all about Leneshe Young. I can see her in the Top 5.

    I am happy to hear that Leneshe is in the top 50! Hope she doesn’t disappoint and makes it far. She’s my favorite girl so far based on what I’ve seen.

    Yay Leneshe, I really hope she does well. She’s really one of the only female standouts for me right now.

    Hey MJ – check out the guy playing violin for Deanna Brown in that new video you posted of her playing live at The Stone. I think that is the other main bandmember in BOLT along with John Twiford. Right? He’s got a very distinctive look so I noticed him right away. Wonder how they started playing together?? Small world.

    Hey! America hasn’t got to hear Jackie Midkiff sing but I am hoping he makes it to the 36! He’s a stand up guy who can FREAKIN SING!!!! I have heard him! I don’t think you’ll see him with his dog or in a speedo but with his talent he should do fine WITHOUT THE EXTRAS!!!!! Unless this show isn’t about TRUE TALENT!!! We all wonder!
