The second coming of K. Cla on American Idol? Perhaps...
Allison Iraheta, you are great. And I totally agree with the American Idol punditry at EW, you gotta stay in the game girl. As the ballsiest girl left standing in a sausagefest, I love that you are bringing the pain and some implicit feminist pleasure. For the year you were born (1992) week here are my picks.
Do a grunge song, either Smells Like Teen Spirit or Under the Bridge, as many have suggested. But maybe do a spare downtempo acoustic version. You can still be raw but show the soft side everyone needs to see.
Or do this as power ballad--so reinvented with your gravelly voice. Cuz I don't think I can make it through Idol without you.
Just make sure you steer clear of this terrifying rendition. *Shudder* He looks like that dude from The Mummy!
The other route is to go full on ROCK, and follow premier Idol champ Kelly Clarkson's lead and do En Vogue's "Free Your Mind":
Dude, this vintage performance is even more blazin':
Rock on ladies. Rock on.
