Leneshe is quite an attention getter. Her facial expressions and body language reveal a confident individual. Her voice is rich and controlled. She's young and hip and her song will be on the radio someday. Can't wait to see what's in her future!

Now that I've seen the first live performance, I really can't believe Lenesha didn't make it. At least two of the girls just made fools of themselves. I hope I can somehow keep track of Lenesha, I would buy a record of hers in a minute.

What I cannot believe is that NOBODY says or knows exactly what went wrong with her. I just hope she has a good recording contract and gives us a surprise.

I can't beliee that Leneshe Young wasn't one of the FIRST to contestants to make the show... I was so upset that she didn't make it I didn't even want to watch the show... however curiosity got the best of me.. and i have been watching... and after seeing the contestants thus far... i truly believe that there were quite a few contestants that they missed entirely.. becuase so far most of these contestants suck really really bad....
no offense but leneshe young is by far one of the best and brightests we've seen in a long time... and i look forward to hearing from her in another venue all i can say to her is remember jennnifer hudson...
