American Idol 2011 Top 24 - Chris Medina .
Altough he didn’t make the final 24 on American Idol, but Chris Medina won in a much bigger way when he won America's heart. His story touches my heart and i did cried when i heard his story . It's one of the most touching story i've heard in my entire life ( In my 8 Years Of Watching American Idol ) that i will remember it forever.
His story and singing has prompted people from around the country to raise money for Juliana Ramos, his fiance, who suffered a brain injury in a car crash just months before their planned wedding in 2009. Chris has taken care of Ramos ever since and once his story made national television, things took a turn for the better. Being a loyal and a man of his words is what i admire him for despite having the burden or hardships he's facing in his life .
Personally , ever since he sang The Script - Breakeven in the American Idol audition , I was confident that he will surely be the next american idol but things did not turn out the way WE wanted him to be instead he made it to the top 24 . Even for Jennifer Lopez , it was the hardest decision for her to tell Chris Medina that he didn't made it to the top 24 that leave her in tears . Altough Chris left American Idol but the support that i have towards him is still there . He's a role model and a singer that i know .
Besides Chris leaving American Idol , he was paid to have a recording contract for his song " What Are Words " Learning his suffers and it was finally made it into a song . By the music video , I was touched that he actually cried while singing it . But he never gives up instead he continue singing it to the end . Altough he might left American Idol , But he received donations worth more than 100k . I wish him and his fiance all the best in life :)
