Filipino-Canadian hopeful Tyson Venegas has made it to the top 24 of the current season of “American Idol.” Venegas secured a spot in the competition after impressing judges Katy Perry, Luke Bryan, and Lionel Richie with his rendition of “New York State of Mind” by Billy Joel during the audition round.
This news comes after Venegas performed a powerful duet of Queen’s “Don’t Stop Me Now” with fellow Platinum ticket holder Kaylin Hedges in the Hollywood round. Venegas was the first recipient of a platinum ticket in the 21st season of “American Idol.”
Venegas expressed his excitement in a Twitter post, saying, “SO HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE I MADE IT TO THE TOP 24! I have met so many amazing friends and artists on this journey and I can’t believe it’s not over yet!” He also invited fans to tune in to the show to find out who would be joining him in the Top 24.
Venegas has been making waves in the music industry for some time now. He formerly joined “The Voice Teens Philippines” season 2 under Team apl.de.ap but left the competition prior to the knockouts due to undisclosed reasons.
Congratulations to Tyson Venegas for making it to the Top 24 of “American Idol.” We look forward to seeing more of his amazing performances!
