Because Colombia sent someone new and she just auditioned for American Idol, season six.

Say hello to Perla Meneses. She wasn’t perfect, she needs to work hard, but between her positive attitude, her adorable accent, and the fact that she’s so ridiculously cute that I’d like to keep her in my pocket, she is currently my favorite contestant to win a gold ticket thus far (never mind that we’re only one hour in).

Just remember her name and face. I have a feeling we’ll see her for awhile on this show.
