I Don't Mean to Be Rude, But...: Backstage Gossip from American Idol & the Secrets that Can Make You a Star

Vonzell Solomon (Contestant's Choice - American Idol 4, Final 3)

Song: Chain Of Fools Download 'Chain Of Fools' at iTunes Check out 'Chain Of Fools' at Amazon.com (Aretha Franklin Download 'Aretha Franklin' tracks at iTunes Check out 'Aretha Franklin' at Amazon.com)

Vonzell throws back her head after singing 'Chain Of Fools' by Aretha Franklin tonight.
Vonzell's personal song choice tonight is 'Chain of Fools', the Aretha number which she sang so successfully in her audition.
She's successful with it again tonight. She sings a peppy light-hearted version of the song and she nails the vocal perfectly.
Vonzell is treating us to her fun and sassy side. She's moving naturally on the stage and has a beautiful energy about her as she sings. It's a great performance, up there with her best.

Panel-Bites:

Ryan Seacrest:  Now moving on to the contestants' choice, ladies and gentlemen. Once again, time for 'Baby V'. She's chosen 'Chain Of Fools' by Aretha Franklin. Give it up for Vonzell.

Vonzell sings...

Clive Davis:  Vonzell, you picked a true soul classic. You have a very, very good voice. But you gave it a very pop, skirted, likeable rendition. It was winning, because you're talented. To me I think you missed the soulful essence of the song.

Vonzell:  Thank you.

Randy Jackson:  All right, yaow... So check it out, I had a good time. I think it's one of the best vocals ever been sung on the show, it was a perfect song choice, you can sing all the runs, every note was in tune. You made it your own. That was what this show is about. That's why you is it. (Applause)

Vonzell:  (Grinning) Thank you. Thank you very much! Thank you.

Paula Abdul:  This song has been performed by many hopeful idols. All throughout every season. Nobody has nailed it with such gusto, with such passion, with such soul, with such everything. You're wonderful... this is your song. You had such comfort on the stage. It's all about you. This was great. (Applause)

Vonzell:  Thank you. Thank you very much.

Simon Cowell:  When er, Clive said you're likeable... is what you are all about. You have the likeability factor. It was a very brave song to sing. You were infectious. To me it didn't actually matter too much about the vocals there, because I thought it was terrific, it was great fun. And we've got ourselves a competition tonight. (Applause) Very good.

Vonzell:  (Blows a kiss.) Thank You Simon.

Ryan Seacrest:  Well said! Clive tougher than Cowell on that one! Okay, Vonzy, let's run down the numbers again...
