There’s a big possibility that Jessica Sanchez can make history on Thursday by becoming the first contestant of Asian descent (Filipino) and the youngest to win American Idol ever. Prepare to vote tomorrow, Wednesday (May 23) at around 11:00am to 2:00pm.
5 Reasons Why Jessica Sanchez Can Win American Idol
1. She’s one of the best singers in America. Aside from the show’s judges, music industry’s experts like Jimmy Iovine and Akon know that her singing techniques are beyond her age.
2. She’s charismatic. Among all the contestants this year, Jessica’s videos on American Idol’s official YouTube channel received the highest number of hits. The second placer is not even close. Not to mention that she now has 284,413 Twitter followers.
3. She’s experienced. Her stint on America’s Got Talent when she was only 11 years old tells a lot about her maturity as a singer.
4. The producers are rooting for a girl to win this time. It’s been always boys in the last 5 years. To balance the show’s “circle of life,” a girl should win this year and between Hollie and Jessica, we know who is more deserving.
5. Pinoy Power. We can never underestimate the unity of Filipinos around the world when it comes to block voting. If it worked in Miss Universe, New 7 Wonders of Nature, etc. then why not in American Idol?
So remember, at around 11:00am to 1:00pm tomorrow (May 23, Wednesday, Manila time), make sure that you vote for Jessica Sanchez by dialing her numbers. If you’re outside the US, you can no longer cast your vote on American Idol’s official Facebook Page but you can use Skype instead to call in the US for free.
EMPHASIS: American Idol Finale–Phillips versus Jessica–is happening tomorrow, May 23, Wednesday (Manila Time) and NOT on Thursday, to be aired live via Star World and ETC beginning 8:00am. The winner will be revealed on Thursday morning instead of Friday, Manila time.
Instead of Thursday-Friday, American Idol season 11 finale week is happening on Wednesday-Thursday (one day ahead).
