Idol Chatter & Voice Views

Janelle Arthur was featured on Wednesday’s Charlotte audition episode of American Idol.

It’s not the first time. Season 12 marks the third straight year Janelle has earned a golden ticket.

Last year, she was cut in Vegas, following a group performance that included fellow country singers Baylie Brown and Chelsea Sorrell, both of whom wound up in the Idol semifinals.

I’ll post bio blogs on Janelle and all the other featured contestants from the audition episodes at a later date.

Meanwhile, here are non-Idol photos of Janelle performing, led off by a wonderful country rendition of “Woodstock.”
