Alaina Whitaker Leads Pack of American Idol Hopefuls in Dallas

Alaina Whitaker didn’t lack confidence on American Idol last night. When asked if she looks like Carrie Underwood, the 16-year old from Oklahoma responded:

I’d like to think Carrie Underwood looks like me.

We like the confidence - but we loved the voice and the fact that she’s moving on to Hollywood. Check out her audition of Faith Hill’s “Stronger” now:

Aside from Whitaker, here are a few names to keep in mind from the Dallas auditions last night:

  • Katie Malloy
  • Kayla Hatfield
  • Jessica Brown
  • Kyle Ensley

No sighting yet of Carly Hennessy - the singer with a professional background who many have dubbed an early season favorite - but we’ll keep you posted!
