After dodging the bullet for nearly 6 straight weeks, Kristy Lee Cook’s luck with destiny finally ran out. On Wed, she became the latest casualty in this years American Idol. The show this season has thrown up some incredible singers and quite a few surprises and we still have six contestants standing.

The biggest of the surprises was ofcourse Asia’h Epperson followed by Michael Johns. Michael with his professional background seemed a sure top 3 contestant right from the start but a few bad weeks in a row saw him eliminated in a shocking vote by the American public.

I’m digressing, back to Kristy Lee Cook. Kristy’s had a dream run, right from selling her horse to pay for her trip to the American Idol audition to continuously emerging trumps when all seemed lost seemed incredible almost unbelievable at times. Kristy has shown what a fighter she can be with performances and great song choices and judgment that kept her in the competition when just about everyone seemed to be baying for her head. America seems to have finally looked beyond her striking looks and voted her out which after the controversial exits we’ve seen in the past few weeks appeared tame and had for once almost everyone nodding with agreement.

Kristy Lee Cook is sure to use all that she learnt and the exposure she got to go on to bigger things. I don’t believe we’ve seen the last of Kristy Lee Cook and like Asia’h Epperson a future star is on her way to singing fame. From all of us here at the Asia’h Epperson fan club we wish her the very best and look forward to many great songs from this talented performer in the coming years. A duet performance with Asia’h Epperson would be the icing on this singing cake. Yeah I know wishful thinking!!
