Hi Lakesha
YOU have to setp up to win this season
Lakisha you are doing a great jojb just remember one thing the hell with what the judges say and sang your heart out because girlfriend me and all of flint are with you 100% and your[re going all the way to the top doing big thangs real soon!
you are the best I will buy every recording you spit out you are incredible they tell everyone don't do whitney huston and you did it and made it incredible i would leap in the air for a chance to meet and hear you sing on stage you keep singing if not for anyone else keep singing for me we need another great singer like whitney and that is you. all I can say is sing what you feel not what you think they want to hear. plese please please do what you can to make an album. I don't want to miss seeing you once the season is over. and I will this is your #1 fan if you are not the last one with dolittle I will never watch american idol again. best wishes Paul
Lakeisha you inspire me so much, I think that i am the biggest fan of your singing and if anyone deserves to be the next american idol it is you girl keep doing your thing and keep being the wonderful mother that you are!
Lakesha I love everything about you. Your one of the best by far. Just wanted to wish you the best of luck as the show winds down to the end!
I think Lakesha is the best person on the show and that she is not getting all the praise that she should...I love you Lakesha and I hope you go all the way
Lakesha you have inspired me so much. I am also a heavier person and I love to sing. I am really concius about my wieght but I realized youu can be whoever you want to be big or small. Thank you so much!
Lakesha, I wish you the best. You have always been my number 1 choice from day one and Malinda a close second. Even though you were voted off, I have enjoyed you every show. I feel you have a bright future ahead, so keep your head up girlfriend. Look at Jennifer Hudson of "Dreamgirls" and former American Idol contestant. She too was voted off and baby look at her now. Dreams do come true and so can yours. You are a wonderful singer with a great personality and we all will definitely hear from you in the future. American Idol was just your beginning. God Bless you and yours, my friend.
I think you are the best !lakesha!you are always give me surprise!I love you!
