Becky O'Donohue - 2006 American Idol Finalist

American Idol announced their 2006 finalists - 12 men and 12 women. Among the female finalists was 25 year-old Becky O'Donohue of New York. Becky O'Donohue is one of the holder competitors in American Idol 5 and definitely among - if not the best - the best looking. In fact, Simon Cowell has commented on Becky O'Donohue's good looks on numerous occassions. Becky auditioned with her sister - who lost her singing voice due to illness. Together though, they auditioned and Becky cruised through to the finals. I expect that Becky will be carried by male votes and make the final 8.

February 28th Update for Becky O'Donohue

Did you tune in expecting to find Becky O'Donohue on American Idol last night?! Well - my forecast of Becky cruising through the first couple rounds due to her good looks and popularity proved wrong. Her performance last week was disasterous enough that Becky was booted!
