American Idol 2012 Spoilers: The Top 7 Theme and Mentor Revealed!
It’s about to get contemporary up in here! American Idol
Season 11’s Top 7 are going to sing songs that they’re actually old enough to
remember this week.

account the theme for Wednesday’s performances is “This Decade,” meaning the
remaining contestants will be able to choose from songs released in 2010, 2011,
and 2012. It’s a short period of time, but there’s tons of amazing material in
there.
Nigel later added that they’ll work with R&B artist Akon,
who performed on the show in 2007.

Jessica Sanchez sings Beyonce's Sweet Dreams on AI Top 9
Jessica Sanchez had the judges and the audience on their
feet rooting for her as she performed her rendition of Beyonce’s “Sweet Dreams”
on American Idol.
The top nine contestants took on the songs of their idols
Wednesday night and were mentored by rock and roll royalty, Stevie Nicks.
Nicks was blown away with Sanchez’s voice but was also
impressed with her ability to learn quickly.
“She is a great
student,” said the rock star.
American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez loved that Sanchez turned
Beyonce’s uptempo tune into a ballad.
“If I was Beyonce and I was home watching this, I would be
thinking 'I should do that for my next concert,'” Lopez told Sanchez. “It was a
really beautiful rendition of it. Really gorgeous.”
Lopez said she didn’t want Sanchez to stop singing.
“There was a part in there that everybody thought you were
going to sing on forever,” Lopez said. “You didn’t and I love that because I
wanted more. You left all of us wanting more.”
JLO’s fellow judges felt the same way about Sanchez's
performance.
“Great performance and beautiful dress,” Tyler said
complimenting Sanchez, who wore an elegant silver gown. “I think you are a star
no matter what.”
To music producer Randy Jackson, who has been a judge on the
show for 11 seasons, Sanchez is “one of the best singers I’ve seen in many
years.”
“I don’t know if people believe me but stars are truly
born,” said Jackson. “The maturity that you have as a singer at this age… I was
looking at Jennifer… where do you learn that?”
He told Sanchez she has innate talent.
“I look forward to hearing you every night,” Jackson said.
Sanchez seemed relieved and happy she was able to nail it
once again.
“[Beyonce] is an amazing performer, an amazing vocalist,”
Sanchez said, smiling. “As a kid, I used to try to do her moves. She is the
total package. That is why I look up to her so much.”

American Idol: Jessica Sanchez Brings Her Dream to Life
“Perfection.”
That was the word from the judges Wednesday on American Idol
after seeing Jessica Sanchez perform Billy Joel’s “Everybody has a Dream.”
Sanchez, 16, also received a standing ovation, nearly
bringing rock star Steven Tyler to tears.
“Jessica Sanchez, you’ve gone way past my judging,” said
Tyler. “When God was giving out vocal cords you [were] so at the front of the
line,” he joked.
Tyler thanked Sanchez “for letting me hear you sing.”
Jennifer Lopez, clad in a stunning fitted black shirt, tight
leather skirt and apple red lipstick, told Sanchez: “That song was written for
you.”
“He [Billy Joel] wrote that song for you a long time ago,”
Lopez said. “That was your defining moment… defining song. I really feel that’s
you.”
“You have this dream and you are here and you’re seizing the
moment and you are living it in every second,” she added. “We all get to feel
that and that’s a beautiful thing. Congratulations.”
Music producer Randy Jackson was exultant over Sanchez and
said he was proud that she was in the competition.
What's Jennifer Lopez Up To?
“What I’m loving [after] doing this show for 11 seasons… it
takes consistency to win,” said Jackson. “Every time you step up, every week,
you have to have a moment. You have a moment every time you get on that stage.”
Amid the thunderous applause by the audience, Jackson told
Sanchez, “I loved it.”
“You are flawless,” Jackson continued. “It was perfect.”
Sanchez was happy she got to sing that song in particular because
she said she relates to the message.
“I got to sing what I believe in,” Sanchez told host Ryan
Seacrest minutes after performing.
“I have a dream. This is my dream.”
Music and fashion moguls Sean “Diddy” Combs and Tommy
Hilfiger were in attendance to give advice. They too clearly were impressed by
Sanchez.
“Jessica, she has the
ability to not only be a music icon but a fashion icon,” Hillfiger said.
After meeting with Sanchez and seeing the ensemble the 16-year-old
had chosen for the evening, the fashion expert was quite pleased.
“The dress is very cool for you,” Hillfiger said. “I think
the audience will love it.”
Sanchez showed off a lacy, petite sleeveless dress and wavy
hair.
Like Hillfiger, Diddy had no doubts that Sanchez will go
far.
“Jessica is definitely a star,” he said.
Jackson expressed gratitude that Sanchez got mentored by the
two icons.
“Diddy, Tommy, excellent mentoring, excellent style,
excellent coaching,” Jackson said. “That was right on. That was perfection.”
