Not a single Fil-Am went through to the Top 10 of American Idol 12. Despite dialidol’s prediction that Adriana Latonio, the half Pinoy who went through to the Top 20, was the female contestant with the most votes, her name was not announced in the Top 10.

American Idol 12 launches the SuperVote! It’s a chance for the fans to be able to vote 50 times at once.
The SuperVote can be used starting Tuesday, March 5, when the Top 10 Girls will perform, followed by the performance of the Top 10 Boys on Wednesday. The Top 12 will finally be announced on Thursday, March 7.

Last week, Filipino-American Adriana Latonio impressed the judges with her rendition of Aretha Franklin’s Ain’t No Way, thus, making it to the Top 20. Last night, however, another Fil-Am Jett Hermano failed to deliver with her slow version of Rihanna’s Only Girl In The World and was sent home.
