Watch this video where Asia’h Epperson sings “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” at the Season 7 of American Idol competition. This song was originally sung by Whitney Houston.

The choice of song was questioned by many fans as pulling off something comparable to Whitney Houston was always going to be difficult. Doing this in the final 24 audition at the American Idol was in retrospect probably a wrong choice but hey we all love Asia’h Epperson and this just shows the amazing gumption she had going for a tough song.

Adding to the difficulty was the unfortunate illness that Asia’h picked up during the competition. Though Asiah denies this having any effect on her performance she did acknowledge that she was a bit rattled mentally as she was busy trying to keep her voice from getting affected.

Leading off the singers in the face off was another setback as viewers generally tend to not rank the first few singers in a long line up because they either miss the early part of the show or are more swayed by later performances because they tend to be fresh in their minds than the initial singer auditions.

Asia’h Epperson remains philosophical even in the end. She believes that she is destined for bigger and better things and that her Dad will always be watching over her and rooting for her. I for one totally agree which is why we have a complete website dedicated to Asia’h Epperson, pop star and singing sensation.
