HAPPY THANKSGIVING MY AMERICAN FRIENDS! Gobble Gobble!!!
MUSIC SCENE: Angie Miller moves beyond ‘Idol’ win – “Yes, working at Chick-Fil-A, the highlight of my life was once a month doing a cover song for YouTube,” Miller laughed from her Beverly home. “Now I never want to do another cover.” Given her remarkable run on “Idol,” it will surprise fans to know that Miller had virtually no public performance experience, aside from singing in some church events, before her TV turn. Her father Guy is a pastor who also plays keyboards, and her mother Tana plays guitar so she grew up in a musical family. Her older brother Jonathan plays in the hard rock group Exiting the Fall. “The only real training I ever had musically was in singing, from my mom,” said Miller, who will turn 21 on February 17. “I also took about a year of piano lessons around seventh grade.

My family always gave me that extra push to be musical.” – Read more at The Patriot Ledger

With not one but two former girl band singers watching their debut UK performance, Dinah says it’s important that Fifth Harmony get it right in front of Mel B and Cheryl Fernandez-Versini. She adds: “Two girl groups on the same panel – the pressure is kind of on, we’re performing in front of two legendary girl group singers so it’s like, ‘I gotta make sure I whip my hair right and hit the notes’. – Read more at Huffington Post
