Ramiele Malubay Was Eliminated on April 2, 2008
This might be a bad news to all Filipinos and Fil-Ams who have been supporting Ramiele Malubay all the way. It's because American Idol finally says goodbye to her tonight during the eliminination April 2, 2008 and April 3, 2008 in some areas. What happened? I thought our fellow kababayans are supporting and voting her. Well, well... there's no point of blaming. At least she made it until the Top 9 finalists.
Remember Ramiele Malubay's claim during her audition wherein she said that she will be the first Asian American Idol. She even said that she will be better off than Jasmine Trias. Oh no. Her dream is no longer possible, as she was already eliminated. Anyway, here are the judges comments of Ramielle Malubay on each of her performances.
