Eliminated American Idol finalist, Skylar Laine, had a little reunion with Randy Jackson on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night.
Skylar sat in with Rickey Minor and the Tonight Show band, while Randy talked some Idol on the couch.
Skylar says she’s going to miss Idol…and she’s NOT going to miss it. She’s relieved to have “the weight of the world” off her shoulders. Her first singout was “Gunpowder and Lead.”
Season 11’s Top 5 is the BEST EVAH he tells Jay, a little mini rundown of the remaining 4 contestants with Jay. Randy’s critiques, as Jay held up photos, was pretty much what you’d expect.
Holly Cavanagh is peaking at the right time, He thinks Joshua Ledet could bring R&B back and has a shot at winning. Phil Phillips is unique and also has a shot at winning. Jessica Sanchez could maybe win.
To summarize:
Phil: Could win
Joshua: Could win
Jessica: Could maybe win
Hollie: —-
Randy was very tactful when asked about The Voice. He says the market is becoming flooded with singing competitions, but at this point, there is room for everybody.
