La'Porsha Renae is a standout on the final season of American Idol. She first caught our attention with this stunning duet with Fantasia Barrino, but week after week, she's delivered marvelous takes on popular songs.
This week she took Rihanna's 2012 hit, "Diamonds," to new heights with an emotional performance. La'Porsha's dynamics are truly stunning. With ease she goes from sweet and soft to a powerful belt.
Not only does Miss Renae need to win the entire thing, but we cannot wait to cop her album as soon as we can.
Since she won American Idol in 2004 at the age of 19, Fantasia Barrino has matured in bonafide vocal powerhouse. The North Carolina native electrifies with her high energy performances, but she's just as capable as delivering a softer, soulful sound.
One of her most memorable song selections during her time on Idol was the Porgy and Bess classic, "Summertime." She paired up with newcomer La'Porsha Renae for an unforgettable rendition of Ella Fitzgerald's version of the song. The show is in its final season, and it's incredible to see the caliber of talent they're still discovering. What's most amazing is how La'Porsha held her own next to the seasoned singer.
American Idol star Jordin Sparks recently released a music video for her latest single, 'Right Here Right Now' the title track off her upcoming third album.
Each week Candice Glover delivers at least one breathtaking performance on American Idol. Last week she delivered a spectacular rendition of the Billie Holiday classic "You've Changed." Candice finessed the song like a pro. Don't miss her performance.
