American Idol 7 Top 6 – Syesha Mercado

Last night’s first performer is Syesha Mercado and she chose “One Rock & Roll Too Many” and I cracked up when Andrew Lloyd Webber said she could “bring the house down” with his accent – I love that man! Syesha was pretty incredible tonight even though my attention drifted a couple times. She really made great use of the stage which is important on a theme week like this. The judges all loved it and Simon even said it was “sexy.” I agree with them – this type of performance is really in her niche Maybe she will be the next big Broadway star!

I think Syesha is definitely going to be a Broadway star! You can see it – she just came into her own during this performance.

GO SYESHA!!! She did great!
I have to agree with Steve that she probably won’t make top two but she will do well in the industry, good for her.
Miami has your back gurl!

Syesha is my favorite on the show. I doubt it will happen, but if her and Cook are the last 2, I will be happy.
