We didn’t get a chance to meet many of the talented singers who made it to Hollywood on American Idol.
So I’ve compiled a series of blogs about them, based on their Road to Hollywood videos and music they’ve posted.
For a complete look at the contestants we missed, head here.
Shae Morefield
I’m a little surprised we didn’t meet Shae during the Oklahoma City auditions because she has an interesting back-story. She’s struggled with bipolar disorder and is the 2012 United States Miss All World Beauty with the duty of helping raise awareness of mental illness and suicide prevention. She describes music as “my escape from everything that goes on in day-to-day life and everything that goes on in my brain with battling bipolar disorder.” As a result, she thinks she could use music to bring a positive message to others, especially young girls. “If that’s what comes out of this, I’ll know I did my job,” says the young woman from Edmond, Okla. Her favorite former Idol contestant is Carrie Underwood.
