Jessica Sanchez & Phillip Phillips Made It to American Idol 11 Finale



16-years old Jessica Sanchez and 21-years old Phillip Phillips made it to the American Idol 11 Finale which will be held on May 22, 2012 (May 23: Manila Time).

I was happy and a bit shocked this morning when I heard the news. 

Happy because Jessica who also has Filipino descent reached the show finale and vying for the Idol Title. (feel so proud that Filipino blood is also running in my veins). :)

Shocked because Idol Judges Favorite and Front-runner Joshua Ledet has been voted off in the American Idol Season 11. I don't like Joshua but yesterday I predicted that it's Phillip who will be eliminated, which I based it on their performance last night. [watch/read here]

Well, Phillip should feel so lucky tonight because it's not him that bids goodbye. Congrats Jessica and Phillip!

Phillip Phillips & Joshua Ledet Performances on American Idol 11 Top 3 Show



Beggin' - Phillip Phillips

Phillip Phillips sang  “Beggin” by Madcon on the American Idol 11 Top 3 show. He also performed “Disease” by Matchbox 20 and “We’ve Got Tonight” by Bob Seger.

Imagine - Joshua Ledet

Joshua Ledet sang “Imagine” by John Lennon on the American Idol 11 Top 3 show. He also sing “I’d Rather Go Blind” by Etta James and “No More Drama” by Mary J. Blige.

My Prediction.
Based on their performances tonight, I think there's no more reason for Phillip Phillips to stay longer on the competition. Yeah, it's given that he is a good singer, great guitarist and charming - a total package I must say, but , I think, his performance tonight is not enough for him to stay and go to the finals.

Jessica Sanchez leads Idol Top 3 in Online Fanbase



MANILA, Philippines - If the fanbase in social media would be the basis for winning the American Idol contest, then Filipino-Mexican bet Jessica Sanchez is sure to win by a big leap.

Two weeks before the finale of the American hit singing competition, remaining Top 3 contestants Sanchez, Joshua Ledet, and Phillip Phillips are left to vie for the title in the show's 11th season.

And based on online fans and followers, Sanchez, the remaining female contestant in the competition, is edging out her two male competitors.

Facebook.
In Facebook, Sanchez got more fanpage dedicated to her than the other two contestants. Some of these pages even exceeded the thousand mark for "likes".


As for the Top 3's official Facebook fanpages, Sanchez still leads in terms of number of "likes." Her page has with than 191,000 likes - far from the 72,000 likes in Phillips's fanpage, and from 51,000 likes in Ledet's fanpage.

These official Facebook fanpages help boost votes for the candidates. Each fanpage links to an app where voters can cast their votes online. Voting is being opened for at least a day at the end of every performance night. The following day, the contestants who garner the highest votes stay in the competition, while the one with the lowest votes is eliminated.

Twitter.
On the microblogging site Twitter, Sanchez also leads the fanbase race. Searching the name of Sanchez would yield to a longer list of pages dedicated to her than the other two contestants.
