Posted on Apr 04, 2008 under Pinoy Music ||
An end of journey for our dear Ramiele Malubay, she was voted out from American Idol Wednesday night (Thursday morning in Manila) after she received the fewest votes. It was Dolly Parton night and all nine finalists sang their own versions of hits from the country legend’s songbook, she performed onstage Do I Ever Cross Your Mind?Judge Paula Abdul praised Ramiele and said, “You really had a great minute-and-thirty-seconds and you connected with the audience and you were having fun.” However, Randy Jackson, wasn’t as positive. “I wasn’t jumpin’ up and down but I wasn’t mad at you either, man. It was kinda alright,” he said as he rated the performance a six and a half out of 10. |

| It was also seconded by Simon Cowell that said that the performance is unforgettable. “I think it was very reminiscent of something you would see and hear on a cruise ship.”Ramiele slowly gained popularity from the competition when she sang Dusty Springfield’s You Don’t Have to Say You Love Me, she received raves across the board. Jackson dubbed the performance “classy, almost like a pro.” Abdul told Malubay that she was “a force to be reckoned with,” and Cowell told her, “Tonight, you out-sang every single person.”
“It’s not like I wanna be famous,” Ramiele, who took a break from her nursing course, mused on the AI intro video. “But I wanna represent Asian people and I wanna just live my dream.” The hit reality show airs on QTV-11 every Wednesday and Thursday via satellite feed at 6 p.m., with one-hour replays at 8:00 pm on the same days. |
