24 superstar-wannabes are one step closer to becoming the next American Idol. I don't know about you, but I already have a few favorites. I adore 17-year-old Mikalah Gordon (great personality), 21-year-old Travis Tucker (total package), and 21-year-old Carrie Underwood (sweet girl, powerful voice). We'll see how well they do when the competition kicks off next week.
