American Idol
American Idol Season 11 is officially underway! First stop Savannah, Georgia where the talent was really strong!
Savannah seemed to be a popular spot for Middle Tennesseans to audition and they showed a few on Wednesday night's show.
Back for a second year is Murfreesboro brother and sister, Schyler and Colton Dixon.
They both made it to Hollywood last year, but this year there was a twist right off the bat.
Colton originally hadn't planned on auditioning, he was just there to support his sister, but the judges called him in the room and basically made him sing!
You may remember, Colton made it to the top 14 last year.
Both he and his sister got the golden ticket to try again this year.
Also featured from Tennessee during the Savannah auditions, Amy Brumfield.
She lives in Gatlinburg, but technically Amy is homeless.
She was the "story" of the night. Amy currently lives in a tent.
But things could be looking up because she easily made it to Hollywood singing Alicia Keys "Superwoman".
Another local was seen during the show. Molly Hunt was shown during the 2-hour premier! They didn't really "feature" her, they just showed her during some small clips, but we caught that she is from Franklin, Tn.
They didn't show if she got a golden ticket, but based on the judges comments it seemed they liked her!
