Five years ago, Carly Rae Jepsen finished third on Canadian Idol. Today, she’s one of the world’s biggest pop stars, and she has a few words of advice to aspiring stars who are considering auditioning for a talent show: “go for it!”
“I would encourage anyone who’s considering whether or not to take a chance at that, to jump and go for it,” Carly said in a recent interview with The Metro.
She believes it’s the exposure to the world she got on Canadian Idol that allowed her the fame she has now, and that it helped her get found by Justin Bieber!
“I owe Justin a lot,” Carly said. “He’s been such an amazing supporter.”

Last night, American Idol debuted it’s 11th season by auditioning residents of Savannah, Georgia.
10,000 participants showed up to audition with the hopes of gaining fame and glory. The first one to walk through the doors left quite an impression quite a big impression for someone so young.
His name is David Leathers Jr., but he goes by “Mr. Steal-Your-Girl.” The seventeen-year-old (who looks more like he just celebrated his 12th birthday) sang “Never Can Say Goodbye” by the Jackson 5.
David admitted in a chat with Ryan Seacrest that he has competed with last season’s winner Scotty McCreery before he was famous – and won!! (McCreery came in a close second place)
Check out the video below to see for yourself the voice that brought David to Hollywood.
Even to this day, we are still in shock that David Archuleta didn’t win that season of American Idol. I mean, how can you watch this music video and not fall in love with the soulful singer?
Trust us, it’s impossible.
The music video for “Wait” shows a more sensitive side of David, who in the video, mourns the loss of a friend.
Cute, sensitive, and an amazing singer? Sounds like our kind of guy! Watch this music video and feel your heart melt!
