With Season 12 American Idol in Full Swing, the timing is right to post my Exclusive Interview with Season 11 Runner up, Jessica Sanchez and one of my Faves, Erika Van Pelt.
Jessica, 17, is originally from Chula Vista, California. Prior to appearing on American Idol, Sanchez competed in the first season of America's Got Talent at the age of 11. She is currently signed to Interscope Records.
Erika, 27, is from South Kingstown, Rhode Island, who placed in tenth place on the eleventh season of American Idol. Van Pelt was eliminated on March 22, 2012, after cutting her usually shoulder length locks to a pixie cut, courtesy of Tommy Hilfiger.
I chatted with Both at Seattle's Key Arena just before the concert in July 2012.
