In the 12 years since Fantasia flew to victory on American Idol, the soulful songbird has made each subsequent appearance on the show count.
Last night was no exception.
Celebrating the show’s past (as it cruises towards its penultimate end), the vocal powerhouse performed two songs which cemented her in Idol history – ‘Summertime’ and her winners’ single ‘I Believe.’
The renditions were part of the evening’s ‘Duets’ theme, as such Ms. Barrino was joined by favorites La’Porsha Renae and Jordan Sasser.
Watch after the jump…
Summertime
I Believe
Ever dependable, Fantasia never disappoints. Great performances all round, although we must say there was touch too much rifting on La’Porsha’s part. Jordan, however, turned ‘I Believe’ into the most rousing of collaborations. Awesome.
