American Idol Season 8: Jacksonville Auditions

The judges continued their search for the newest singing superstar in the U.S.A. in Jacksonville, Florida

Joshua Ulloa-He is compared to Justin Giuarini. Blew the judges away with his rendition of Marvin Gaye's "Let's Get It On". He has great energy. Hollywood, here he comes!

Sharon Wilbur-Brought her dog to her audition. The dog sat on Simon's lap. She has an OK voice. She got to up her game if she wants to beat her female competitors. It's a yes to Hollywood.

Dana Moreno-butchered Chaka Khan. Simon threw her out..thank goodness!

Kansewa F.-16 years old. Her mom is a confidence builder but her audition was terrible. She is not ready for Idol.

Jalesa Valquez-Latina girl; Sang Whitney Houston OK. She has a weird laugh. She won over the judges so she competes in Hollywood

Darrin Darrell-He has good energy entertaining the crowd in the holding room. He upset when his new friend got rejected. His audition was unsuccessful so he got rejected

Naomi Sykes-Her friend likes Randy. She compares to Mariah Carey. Is she crazy? She can't be as good as Mariah. It's a no. The judges consoled her.

Jasmine Murray-16 years old from Starkville, Mississippi. Sang on pitch. Very good singer. She could do well in the competition. Potential finalist

George Ramirez-Physics major in college. In 11 years, a regular job and no singing career

Anne Marie Boskovich-Simon was upset when she didn't dress like a star. She changed her look and won Simon and the judges over. She is on to Hollywood. If she wants to go far in the competition, she has to look like a star

T.K. Hash-auditioned last year and didn't make it. Sang John Lennon's "Imagine". He has a good shot of going all the way if chooses songs that aren't difficult to sing.

Michael Perrelli-plays guitar. Nervous because he can't play his guitar in the audition room. Simon was annoyed after his unsuccessful audition. He was upset and didn't hug his family.

16 contestants from the Jacksonville Auditions will arrive in Hollywood.
