Emmy Russell Discusses Pressure Of ‘American Idol’
During a recent episode of American Idol, Russell took a massive gamble when she decided to perform her original song “Skinny.” It was the same song that landed her a spot on American Idol during her audition. Believing it was the right song for the moment, Russell recalled feeling nervous when waiting to hear if she made it to the next round. “I was back there and I was just thinking so many good people have gone home, and so I was like, ‘Well, if that person went home, and I surely might go home.’”

With the pressure mounting, Russell admitted, “I was preparing for the no, but I knew that I’d walk away with a song that I believed in and felt like me, so I was really peaceful. That’s not normally how I feel, but I felt peaceful.”
Moving on to the next round, be sure to tune in tonight, and don’t forget to vote for your favorite artist, like Russell, as she looks to become the next American Idol.
