“This competition is like all I want right now, and I’m willing to get out of my shell as much as it takes to win this thing,” Alex Preston told the nation on American Idol last night.
Idol producers describe him as shy. Preston describes himself as “so freakin’ awkward.”
But when it came down to the decision whether Alex would stay in Hollywood or be cut from the show, his live performance of Damien Rice’s Volcano fully solidified him as one of the Top 10 guys moving on in the competition.
“That was a song you could have written,” Idol judge Jennifer Lopez said of Preston’s performance.
“That was probably the best song choice of the night,” Keith Urban agreed.
One thing is for sure, Alex Preston knows how to work an audience – whether it be 40,000 on the Esplanade in Boston or a couple million watching on national television.
To vote for Alex, you can call 1-855-4-IDOL-07 (1-855-4-4365-07).
