Asia'h Epperson Rocks On Week 1

Asia'h Epperson Rocks On Week 1 American Idol

Asia'h Epperson probably had the best performance of the night on round 1 of American Idol. She came out with an upbeat song that just blew the audience and judges away, including Simon Cowell. Simon had been shooting most of the girls down all night, but Asia'h Epperson had him saying it was the best performance of the night.

Asia'h had a great stage performance. It's like she commanded the stage while she was up there. You could tell that she was really having fun and it was nice to see all 3 American Idol judges enjoy Asiah' Epperson's performance.

I believe it's a no brainer that we'll see her continue on to the next round. As you know, with anything American Idol, it's no guarantee, but if anyone continues on to the next round of American Idol, it should be Asia'h Epperson.

Is Asia'h Epperson Good Enough To Survive American Idol?

Asia'h Epperson is a very talented and gifted artist, but good enough for the Top 12? It remains to be seen whether or not Asia'h Epperson is good enough to make American Idol's Top 12..

A Few Things Asia'h Epperson Will Have To Do

Asia'h Epperson will have to sing songs like never before to capture viewers hearts. Song selection is critical and choosing the wrong song will send Asia'h Epperson home from the American Idol competition.

Not only is the song selection very important for him, but Asia'h Epperson will have to be at her best. As there are only a few true amateurs in the Top 24, this will make it harder for Asia'h Epperson to reach the top 12.

Everybody knows by now that most of the Top 24 American Idol competitors have had either previous recording contracts or professional experience. This is something Asia'h Epperson as well as the other American Idol contenders will have to deal with.

What about the American Idol judges?

Now that they're in the weekly competition, the Judges decision will not affect Asia'h Epperson as much as in previous shows when Paula Abdul, Randy Jackson and Simon Cowell had the final decision. No, the judges will critique Asia'h Epperson but it will be the American Idol viewers who have the final say in whether or not Asia'h Epperson stays or goes.

Does Looks Hurt or Help Asia'h Epperson?

Let's face it, Asia'h Epperson is one of the better looking competitors this year on American Idol. Whether we like it or not, looks matter and this is an advantage for Asia'h Epperson. There were rumors that you could see some black skin acne scars while she was on stage. If they were there, I didn't notice them nor anyone I know didn't either. Not only do looks count, but the wardrobe selection also matters, again, Asia'h Epperson has shown style and class when choosing what to, or what not, to wear on stage.

Not only do looks count, but stage presence also counts and this is another positive that Asia'h Epperson has. Asia'h Epperson commands the stage and is entertaining to watch move around the stage. Interacting with the audience is another area where Asia'h Epperson shines. Viewers like seeing performers interacting with the crowds.

What, If Any, Changes Should Asia'h Epperson Make?

It's no secret that the American Idol Judges do not like to see competitors perform easy songs. They want the performers stretch their musical limits. This may be one area where Asia'h Epperson does not have an edge. Asia'h Epperson will have to resist the temptation so choose easy songs and pick hard songs that will not only impress the judges, but the Viewers as well.

Since there's been 6 years of American Idol so far, Asia'h Epperson or the other competitors should not have a problem choosing songs. They should know what the viewers and judges like.

Another area that Asia'h Epperson needs to stay away from is trying to sound like a famous performer. We've seen many American Idol competitors go down because they tried to be like someone else other than their self. Let's watch and see who makes this mistake this year.

Also, Asia'h Epperson will want to watch what she says during interviews each week. We all know the camera looks for weeknesses. Asia'h Epperson doesn't want to be seen appearing week or over confident. Both turn off Judges and TV watchers. There have been several times in the past that American Idol viewers were turned off by competitors appearing whining or cocky. Asia'h Epperson will have to avoid making either of these mistakes.

Asia'h Epperson Will Need Help From Other American Idol Competitors

Just selecting the right song, wearing the right clothes and having a perfect performance may not be enough for Asia'h Epperson. Asia'h Epperson will need help from other American Idol competitors as well. This means that at least one contestant will have to have poor song selection or have a poor performance for Asia'h Epperson to make it to the American Idol top 12.

This will be true all the way to the end. As long as viewers dislike one other contestant more than they dislike Asia'h Epperson, there'll be a spot in the Top 12 waiting.

What Impact Will The American Idol Judges Have?

If history is any indication, the American Idol Judges criticism will have little effect on whether or not Asia'h Epperson makes it into the top 12. In the past, Simon, Paul and Randy have critisized competitors who made it all the way to the end. Although Asia'h Epperson may have feelings that get hurt by bad comments from the Judges, it will be the viewers who ultimately decide on whether or not Asia'h Epperson makes it into the American Idol Top 12. For example, last year Taylor Hicks was critisized several times by Simon as being nothing more than a lounge singer, yet viewers ultimately chose him as the American Idol for Season 6. Asia'h Epperson will need to make sure the crowds are pleased, not the Judges.

What Do The American Idol Viewers Like?

American Idol is really about contemporary Pop music. That is the most popular music played today and that's where the money is and American Idol knows this. This is why country singers, Blues and Rock singers have all had a hard time making it into the Top 12. They're trying to sing songs that they are not familiar or comfortable with. I believe Chris Daughtery is a fine example. He probably made it further than any other Non-Pop singer and by all rights, was by far the best of all of Season 6 competitors. So how did Taylor Hicks win? Because he had a better stage performance than Chris and could sing popular songs while doing it.

All in all, Asia'h Epperson has a pretty good chance of making American Idol's Top 12. If you're a fan of Asia'h Epperson, you need to get on the phone each week and vote to make sure it happens. Only time will tell whether or not Asia'h Epperson is in the Top 12.
