The Top 11 Movie Night

It was a night of strong performances as the Top 11 finalists sang music from the movies. As expected, MK and Alex continue to be the leaders of the pack. MK Nobilette delivered an impressive and emotional rendition of To make You Feel My Love while Alex Preston added his genuine and raw essence to Falling Slowly.

Surprisingly, Malaya Watson, scored for the second week in a row with her powerhouse vocal on I Am Changing. She is still a wacky doofus, but the voice was there. The other contestant who stepped it up this week was Majesty Rose who took on the current hit from Idina Menzel, Let It Go. Majesty has the stage presence, the style and the great voice to really make some waves in the music business.

My prediction for the bottom three this week is Sam Woolf, Jessica Meuse and Ben Briley. Ben made an unfortunate song choice in Benny and the Jets that had him veer to far away from his fan base. Jessica simply is not translating her experience performing in small clubs to appearing on TV. But Sam was the biggest hot mess and he should definitely be the one going home this week. His attempt at Come Together was sad and droopy. The poor boy has absolutely no personality and he is a fish out of water trying to compete on this big high profile stage.
