Age: 17
Hometown: Staunton, Virginia
Musical Favorites: Usher, Billy Joel, John Lennon, Elton John, Whitney Houston, Christina Aguilera
Idol Pursuits: While in Hollywood, he is still helping direct a play back in Virginia. The community theater aficionado has already run the show for productions of Little Shop of Horrors and Jekyll and Hyde.
High Note: We didn't see too much of him during Hollywood Week, but that "everything I do, I do it for you" bit was clearly enough.
