Young Thia Megia is already a veteran contest performer. Prior to American Idol she was on Showtime at the Apollo (in the Kid Star of Tomorrow contest) and America’s Got Talent.
The teenager demonstrated a lot of poise during her run on the show as well as delivering practically perfect vocals week after week.
We learn more about lovely Thia during her exit interviews. She’s been performing since the age of 5 and has always had a passion for singing. She is thankful for all of the fans that voted for her and is looking forward to the summer tour.
Thia enjoyed attending the Idol School with Scotty and Lauren, even when it cut into practice time. She loved being on the show and feels it helped her grow as an artist. Her musical inspirations are Adele and Jason Mraz, as well as Billie Holiday.
She has no regrets for the choices she made on the show especially this week’s song that she dedicated to her brother.
You can learn more about Thia on her official American Idol web page.
