Jessica Sanchez
2 singers left and 25 minutes left in the show. A lot of time for Seacrest to kill.
Jessica is up next. She confides, softly, to Seacrest that she hurt her vocal chords in rehearsals and "my throat is a little swollen". While she says this we see footage of her looking pitiful on the bigscreen.
(Audience awwwws)
I call BS on all of this.
And of course, now she sings without any hint of being sick. Big loud long notes. LOL! Shameless voter manipulation!
Randy: YO! YO! YO! I don't know about no doctor, but what is really happening--that girl can really sing. That voice is a voice to be reckoned. So unbelievably talented.
J-Lo: (gushes) So beyond your years.
Steven: You have exceptional timing. Voice is perfect.
And I thought X Factor was scripted.
