Asia'h Epperson

Of American Idol's Top 24 finalists leaked onto the net, 19 year old Asia'h Epperson from Joplin MO's fight on to conquer the judges and give herself the best chance possible of joining the American Idol Top 12.

Everyone involved with the top rated reality show have kept much of Asia'h' Epperson's singing ability under wraps, perhaps preferring instead to play up her sad and heartwrenching loss of her beloved father in a car accident literally just days before her audition for American Idol in Atlanta.

Incidentally, Asia'h Epperson lists her musical influences as Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston, Christina Aguilera, Toni Braxton.
