Julia needs to find a new friend
How come karen, raghu not her fault her friend not going through. Of course raghu thats her dream to be a singer. You just make story to their friendship.
The producers planned this. Don't be so gullible.
Raghu is a manipulative person and fake freind lol. You can’t just tell by the way she talks to the judges and how she was fake sad for her freind. I’m glad Katy caught on to the foul play
Or a new girlfriend
Wow. With friends like that, who needs enemies???
Are y’all dumb someone got to get on to put the other one on that’s what friendships for I eat you eat can’t be jealous and that’s why the world messed up today smh
Lol forreal right
Give me a break, tough world out there suck it up lol.
Semper.Fidelis
hHhahahhaa they nicely staged this one in
editors suck
I think Katie said no to Raghu because she thought it was poor taste for Raghu to horn in on her friends audition.
Katie had to walk away
I thought the same
It’s all scripted. Ragu didn’t have everything ready to go by accident.
She won't go far
fake
Ya'll did that girl dirty!
I agree. That is not a best friend. They did not ask her to sing. She asked them. Her friend just got told no. And bow she auditioned thats messed up.
Agreed about this! Even if it was scripted, she shouldn't have agreed to it @@Shanabana88
yea and Katie didnt fall for it, she seen what she did to her best friend, well so called best friend
Julia needed support, not a so-called friend stealing her thunder. That was horrible.
Agree 100% - that was a terrible thing to do! Also the judges should not have allowed it!
@@tracyhutchins5831It seems set up by the producers ahead of time, but Julia wasn't in on it. At least Katy wasn't going along with it.
but it's not a thunder tho ... it's a no.
I agree with you! I don’t think either one sang that good though.
She didn’t have no thunder quit it
I think Raghu planned that take over of her friends audition. I feel bad for Julia. I personally wouldn't be friends with Raghu anymore if I was in Julia's spot.
So what ? Lol julia didn't get the votes and if she did nobody would be saying anything about this and I'm sure raghu would of sang still to the judges
Nah the producers orchestrated it poorly. It made Alyssa look bad on the spotlight too.
Wrong. Alyssa gave the full story after the episode aired.
@@ballamaniac6984Raghu should have had her own audition, not took over her friends. That was cold.
@@scruffypupper lol bro why does it even matter julia didn't make it so how does her friend making it change anything If they both made it nobody would be saying anything and the same thing happened to that kaygo guy who played the piano for his friend and ending up making it
She just used her 'friend' to shove her way into an audition. Calculated. She's already been on the show. I'd rather see Julia. Stop making a sham of the process.
According to Alyssa she was begging to have Julia on the show with her but the judges said no. Just keep in mind these auditions are often heavily edited and things aren’t always exactly how they appear
@@NickThaQuick224 Well edit or not, it just caused Alyssa a buttload of backlash and Julia some embarrassment
@@mattchuu402 Yup
What would you do the achieve your dream 😴 I seen far worst… I think we all have. The world has gone crazy…I don’t condone those approaches but to try, and try again!! You can only do what they allow you to get away with!! We grind and we strive after been told no, and kick the door down to be!!!
Agree. Facts
This is her third time being on the show like damn girl move on you don't have anything to gain from this show
she has not improved at all
i disagree alyssa has really improved she deserves this third chance and deserves to win as well@@angelo121697
She just troll the show 😂
I think she even paid by the director for always comeback auditions 😂
I hope Karma boots Raghu off. That was so underhanded and low. Thank you for the NO, Katy.
Same as the way she claimed her to be best friend within a year and half of friendship just to cash out her fame, she thought throwing in her name during her audition even before performing would work as a catalyst, but it backfired, Karma you know! 😂😂
American idol is heavily produced. They create storylines. I promise it was planned by the shows producers…🙄
@@Howtobeabeast .. Ya.. i don't think so. The judges aren't good enough actors to fake all those feels.
@@LisaMarie-rh5ynright? Katy hated that you could just tell from her face!
Katy was obviously pissed and did not agree with that.
Ugh so distasteful
Julia’s friend Raghu took over her audition, judges shouldn’t have done this.
*I LIKED JULIA'S VOICE BETTER!!!*
talk about throwing someone under the bus, that was crazy
@@bobbyd5276 yes. me too. They got it wrong. sometimes I really wonder. They didn't even ask her to try a second song. They are not serious abt the role they play.
I am a man. They caved to her hotness - LOL
I agree, I feel like she used her friend
Lionel's assessment of Julia's talent is spot on. She has amazing potential. Really awful how the former contestant stepped in and hammed it up and rewarded with a ticket while Julia stood there. Seemed disrespectful.
And with a name like Julia Davo, I hope she continues!
Worst friend ever? I hope she gets voted out because that was actually so messed up
If she even makes it to the voting rounds, she'll be among the 1st to be eliminated. I guarantee it. Too many people hate Raghu to vote for her. 😂
@@AudreyC379 You think so? She’s made the top 8 before so I mean she def has some fans I would think
She did!
This felt scripted. Julia is great. Alyssa will not win and she already had her chance TWICE. What’s the point???
Yep, scripted, that's what I thought.
Scripted but Julia wasn't in on it
Scripted in poor light. If Julia got the ticket as well, Alyssa wouldn’t have gotten hate.
It’s staged.
THATS WHAT IM SAYINNNN BRO LIKE if ur nit gonna win the point is ???
What a good "best friend". I feel sorry for Julia 😂
Alyssa isn't a real friend for doing that🙄
Agreed
I like how Katy acknowledged it a plot twist.
AAMEN, THAT'S NOT A FRIEND
Wow. She should not be allowed to compete. This made me feel gross.
I agree she was in the live shows before and any contestant who made it to the live shows in the past cannot re-enter it again. Honestly this feels fixed and unfair to the contestants this year. If there was like American Idol: All Stars yes only for those contestants who made it to the live shows in the past
I completely agree. I mean at least if she makes it into the voting rounds, she'll likely be one of the first contestants to be eliminated as no one is gonna be voting for her.
I agree both of you on that
I don't necessarily blame the judges, but American Idol should have at least edited this differently to spare that poor girl's feelings. Alyssa walked in, sang, then asked the judges if she could be on this season. What she just did to her friend and stole her entire moment was distasteful. She'll truly find out when America starts voting.
What moment ? She didn't get the votes lol
They probably should have, but if she works she will be special, Lionel felt and so did I!!
If she even makes it that far 🙄
I voted for her the 1st time around although Alyssa has gotten better I thought this was in poor taste I mean come on, “just for giggles” blah blah take over her friend’s audition.
*** SPOILER ***
Alyssa doesn't make it to Top 24.
tacky as hell! Awkward and awful. I feel you, Katy.
I feel you guys! This is weirdly sneaky 🥴
Julia Davo will give any professional singer a run for their money. She was ROBBED. This girl has vocal chops and I am glad Lionel recognized this. It does not seem appropriate that Alyssa was allowed to enter official auditions in this manner and without having passed through regular protocol. Personally, I will be following Julia who has GREAT potential to EXCEL in the industry. She has the goods, the looks, the VOICE, and the carriage of what she wants to be and WILL BE - A rock star! You go Julia!!
Right! She reminded me of Miley Cyrus. ❤
I agree fully!
This was like when Laine Hardy came back with a friend, the difference is that they begged Laine to come back whereas this girl basically begged her way back to Hollywood. Felt really weird.
And didn't he win?
He sure did😂 @@khaIid624
@@khaIid624difference is the judges asked him to come back because he didn’t go far. Raghu made the top 8 already.
@@GCNMMA imagine if she somehow won lol
@@khaIid624 I doubt she wins this but she could find herself on big brother with that connivingness
Oh and shame on you judges.
For letting her jump the line.
I’m pretty sure they let Laine do the same thing the season he won
That school girl skip into the room was the sign of sabotage. That move was so uncool
I Totally agree. Alyssa was like: "skip, skip, skip to my loo, I can't wait to do this to you!" So scandalous.
Narcissist. 100% she’ll never be humble enough to see the wrong in what she did either, that’s the sad part.
to absolutely crush a young woman’s dreams and then immediately bring in alyssa and be all giggly and happy when you’ve just shut down julia with no actual critiques or things to properly work on, they didn’t judge they made a decision because they’re on a power trip
Wow. So at her friend’s lowest moment, she decided it was the perfect time for her to make it about herself. 😭😂
Raghu is a USER. A certified USER.
It sickens me that there are people out there like this, that see no wrong in what they do. True narcissists. She needs to get humbled.
That was so strange lmao I feel bad for the girl like how are you gonna ask to be on the show again when your friend just got told no 💀
Exactly
That felt slimy. Totally planned
Totally Agree!!
And totally fixed it's unfair :(
That was not classy by Ragu… should not have permitted that but I guess there’s no rules that prohibited it.
That was not right if she was going to do that she should have had her own separate audition
This girl got robbed! She had me stopped in my tracks and standing in front of the tv. She was incredible! I am now following her on Spotify. You might not have got the golden ticket but this girl is gonna go places with out needing idol as her platform. Wishing you tons of luck in the industry!
P.s. get better friends.
Oh please do tell what her name is! I thought the 1st young lady was amazing.
@@tejaysmith21Julia Davi. I’m following her too
100% I have a feeling that Julia Davo's will make the BIG TIME in the music biz for sure!!! Love her unique voice and style!!!
@@tracysmith4242 thank you!
Now this HASSSSS to be STAGEEEEEEEEEEEEEE AINT NO WAY!
Ragoo knew that was her plan all along. Seemed like she played her friend tbh 🚩🚩
Yeah that was her plan
She came prepared
Katie saw right through it too 🤷🏼♀️
More than likely. I disliked Raghu during her first time on idol. So fake and just unlikeable. If she makes it to the voting rounds, I certainly won't be voting for her no matter how good her voice is.
Agreed
Can only blame the judges for this Debacle this was disgusting 🤮
You can blame Lionel and Luke for that, Katy said no to her!
At least Katy was honest and told them both to get sent packing, Lionel and Luke love the drama.
Actually I do. Lionel and Luke should not have let her through…
But what really sucked is I feel that was pretty dang low to hone in on her friends audition KNOWING that she didn’t make it. She had her song ready to go…already in her plans.
Raghu had this audition hijacking planned from the start... She knew her friend had no business auditioning, but knew it'd be the perfect opportunity for her to step in and "accidentally" audition.
I thought Julia had more talent.
Right.. but Julia seems more like a star with talent
That was so sad too, it feels like they didn’t even pay attention to Julia once Alyssa came in 😢
This girl is a huge manipulator! How could Lionel and Luke have fallen for this!! Katy knew what was going on! This is sickening. I knew the minutes Raghu said the same thing, “this girl is my best friend” where this was going! This girl set her up to insert herself in the audition.
If Ragu wanted to be on the show why didn’t she go thru the audition process like her friend did? That was just awkward and probably not going to help her get audience votes.
Bc rules of this show say former contestants who got to the top 10 can't compete on it again, making her ineligible to reapply for it in the first place, so she exploited her friend Julia's opportunity, who went through all the previous stages before her televised audition... I feel Julia n I'm just sick of jerks who only care about themselves n use the ppl who who blindly trust them in their advantage without gaf about their needs, their rights n fairness
Lionel was correct, Julia could really develope big time.
Loved Julia Davo's voice! It was a combo of Lady Gaga and Judy Garland. Lionel was so right! That was not cool Alyssa.
Julia has a great voice. Sorry she didn’t go through.
I agree! I think she would have done pretty good. She was nervous. She had that 70s sound
I agree as well, but it was a bad song choice for her and I was wondering if Raghu approved of her song choice because i would have made her choose a much better song for her vocals.
I don’t think she was that good.
I think we are witnessing the beginning of Julia's villain origin story
😂😂😂
Harley Quinn.
I think Katie said no because she also thought it was a crappy thing to do....
Raghu didn't "do" anything. It was planned for "entertainment" value
@@Ag-jw4zj You're totally right. Reality TV is anything but reality, really.
Wait this was so shady
Davo's the one with real potential. What a uniques style. Once she learns more about using the stage to tell stories through song,, she'll have the world at her fingertips. I listened twice. Love her voice...
I cannot wait for Julia Davo to hit it big! She was a breathe of fresh air compared to the many karaoke style singers that appear on the show. Her vocals are unique and I felt her performance was strong. Put me down for an advance copy of her first album!
Forget about being best friends. She’s not even a friend! Period.
She was ready to cry but wanted to be a good friend
Some best friend. Keep ya friends close and your enemies closer.
WTF? Alyssa had this planned all along.
So, does American Idol allow unfair manipulative competitions? The way that girl came skipping in was immature behavior. I’ve never seen this on a talent show before. This is just sad.
When Raghu said (regarding the golden ticket) "you want me to throw it away? I'll throw it away" to Julia... ugh, for me that was what told me she was a manipulator. No one ever says that sort of thing except to look like a good and selfless person because they know the other person would never ask them to throw away their victory. Whether the entire thing was scripted by the producers or not it was slimy as hell and I would need a long time to recover emotionally if I were Julia.
Raghu USED Davo to get back in
I agree with Lionel, they should’ve gave her a shot. And Alyssa Raghu knew EXACTLY what she was doing, she completely sabotaged her “friends” audition
Oh no she didn’t…Julia that girl is NOT a true friend and she certainly does not have your best interests! Cut that girl out of your life pronto, you deserve better friends. Can’t believe what I just saw… the audacity! Smh. P.S. Julia you are so talented and I cannot wait until your turn sis!! Shine on babe! You do not need American idol 💖
You’re so right. It was so unfair! Julia was a supportive friend to Alyssa even if she didn’t make it. I found the audition totally fake and awkward. You can’t just waltz in the room and try to make it into Hollywood through your friend, and pretend like you just came up with a song to sing on your own. Totally planned. 🙄
Absolutely agree!!!!!!!! Well said. It was wrong on soooany levels. Wow just wow right?!
She's a winner🏆she could play Lady Gaga's life story 🎵
Agreed!
Agree
Her surname is Davo. She’s Italian just like Lady Gaga!
It would be perfect! She’s also extremely Italian, with her full last name being Davolio. We went to high school together, always been a talent.
Maybe it was Lady Gaga and not Julia Davo's. It was staged.
Lionel knows wassup
You can tell how hard the rock bestie was trying to fought back tears. She got knocked down and then watched her friend got through ...awwww
Raghu skipping on the way in tells me this was PLANNED she was ready to get her 3rd shot WHATEVER it took
That's right, Alyssa was like: "Skip, skip, skip to my loo...I can't wait to do this to you. "
I thought Julia was more interesting actually. I agree with the Gaga statement. She was unique. Raghu seems like every other idol contestant we typically see
When they told her she didn’t make it Raghu’s reaction was so disingenuous
That was kind of messed up what Alyssa did. I feel terrible for Julia who I thought was really interesting. I would have put her through.
When I watched this I was horrified for that poor girl. The look on her face said it all. Shame on all those who participated in making that cringe moment. I would dump Alyssa as a friend in a heartbeat.
I can't even finish watching this. It's too uncomfortable. I feel bad for Julia
Raghu is 21, she is young, and she is looking for her next big break. Yes, she would step on her friends to get there. Her brain hasn’t completely developed. But, yes, she’s wrong. Honestly, Julia has a cooler sound to me - cuz she doesn’t sound like everyone else.
I hate how Luke told Julia to learn something about Raghu, they are so different, was not good thinking word to said just for the situation.
She totally just used her friend. I can’t even right now. This hurt me so bad
I hope Julia comes back and artist and proves everyone wrong. This was her villain arc
There's no way I'm voting for Alyssa if she makes it to the voting rounds. 🙅♀️ I could not stand her during her 1st time on the show, second and now third?! (Aren't there some rules in place considering that she made it into like the top 8 the last time? How is she able to enter the competition again? Literally How?
I am with Lionel on this one, Julia is a star. She's truly ready, signing David Bowie is not a joke. We need next next Blondie and David Bowie. Like Lionel, my worst day. I wish she would have sang Shayla by Blondie. I am a fan!
Broadway would love her
Why didn't Ragu try out for herself to begin with?
Because it was against the rules, so she had to use her friend as an opportunity to come in and beg the judges to bend the rules for her
Dude, that girl is lucky her best friend is so kind because that was messed up….
Laine was like “i’m not here to audition, just here to support my friend.” And the judges asked him to sing. They both got the ticket and Laine wins.
Meanwhile Alyssa strutting into the room and like: “I wanna sing a song for you guys.” She got the ticket, her friend didn’t. I’m gonna make a bold and unapologetic prediction that Alyssa won’t win AGAIN. Cold, calculated and manipulative move.
I really hope that Julia comes back next year, she's a diamond in the rough. I was also impressed by her song choice.
Wow I guess Alyssa Raghu wasn't kidding When She said on Her Instagram account She was going to audition for American Idol again??? Seriously, I don't know What to say expect I don't think Julia best friend. Because If She was, She wouldn't have The nerve to ask If She could sing & Audition again right front of Her!!!
that was painful to watch the "friend" waiting around while they debating not about her. Katy was not happy at all
I think her plan was she was hoping they would Laine Hardy her and beg her to sing. She seemed upbeat when they “asked” her for a “favor” and it was to bring Julia back when she thought she was ready. Then, she pounced. Terrible friend, zero votes from America and Julia but a couple votes from her family 🤷🏽♂️
Yes. You couldn’t have said/observed it better. She instantly made it all about her. It’s obvious. She had 0 concern about her friend after they asked her to bring her back. Literally just all about her. Narcissism at its finest. And then alyssa asked her if she wanted her “to throw the ticket away” as if any normal human being would say yes. She took advantage of her and it’s disgusting.
How can they say Raghu has everything to gain while Julia is standing there for her audition and has everything to gain as well. I hope Julia keeps her head held high and stays true to herself!
Julia is amazing and unique! She has a Gaga vibe, I would like to hear more about her. Lionel Richie was the only who saw her huge talent. The two other judges are like a green strawberry. And Alyssa sings amazing, but just that, she sings like a lot of girls who can sings, and c'mon girl, this was Julia's moment, not yours. For me this was so unrespectful, those judges needs more respect for the contestants.
I don’t even watch American idol and I’m PIIIIIISSSEDDDDDDDDDDDDD
She asking her "best friend" to throw it away at the end? After calculating exactly that. Ughhh !
That poor girl needs to find some genuine friends for herself. Raghu broke the code of friendship.
Not a friend. Not even close. Thank you for showing everyone how slimy Hollywood can be.
is this a real friend or just an act?
What she did to her "best friend" was horrible, and selfish, and cruel. She had her opportunity twice, and didn't make it. If she wanted to try out again, she should have entered the competition herself, not usurp her friend's audition. Her friend Julia, showed more grace and professionalism than Raghou deserved. I won't vote for her. She doesn't deserve it.
They’re supposed to be looking for out of the ordinary people, and Julia’s voice was definitely out of the ordinary, and she had great tone. These people are screwed. Thank you Lionel for sticking up for her.
Wasn’t really fair. She’s already had the experience.
Julia you did great job singing you did really well
Katy sensed that friend thing-trick. I am glad she said no tho she was the only one.
I feel sad for Julia..she was used
I wonder if they would reject Bowie ,,the girl was excellent, she would of made the voice , I guess they want cookie cutter, we don’t need cookie cutter we something new like her, bad day for idol, she was better then most of those we’ve seen so far this season
I thought they should have listened to Lionel...I heard a Gaga in there, too!
I thought they have a rule that once you’ve made it to the top ten/live shows, you can’t be on the show again. 🤔
I was excited to see Alyssa again but after she did that, I do not like her anymore. She already had two chances and that was a snake move
I honestly don’t understand what happened here, was this edited this way or did Raghu just undercut her friend?
I cant figure it out either. seem staged but idk
@@corrinealexander885 with friends like this who needs enemies?
That song was for a giggle and then turned it into a backdoor audition and got her a Hollywood ticket , that was fancy !!!
Yes, I agree. What Alyssa was really saying, "Just for giggles, I would love to stab my friend in the back, oops I mean I would like to sing you something..."
The judges should have gotten that girl to sing a different song she was really good. That was a painful thing to see with the other girl getting accepted
It’s possible she sang two songs but it got edited out. I’ve heard contestants talk about how that happens
I really liked Davo, but she comes across as a Broadway singer.
Sllllyyyy girl. Katy can see through it
Katy deflated her and I was hoping Luke would too
Wow that was gross. They disrespected the talented blonde girl and took away from her moment.
That was some cold sh!t by ole tomato paste. Like the old saying goes “with friends like that, who needs enemies?”
It almost seemed like Alyssa misunderstood the comment of her voice having to grow as an invitation to sing and show her growth, rather than what it was, an explanation that her friends voice also needed to grow.
Poor Lionel. “This is the worst day of my life.” This speaks volumes about Julia’s talent.
FYI, she has a channel on RUclips - Julia Davo. Go show her your support there if you are so moved.
