Fans voted Filipino American Malaya Watson into the top 10 of American Idol Thursday night, reports Rappler.
The vote is significant because all those who make the top 10 get to perform on the American Idol tour which usually takes place during the summer.
Malaya wowed the audience with a rendition of I am Changing from the movie Dreamgirls.
Judges Jennifer Lopez and Keith Urban gave Watson a standing ovation after her performance, as did the audience. You can read the judge’s comments in Rappler and watch the performance below.
