We are in the midst of ‘American Idol’ auditions and have met quite a few extraordinary talents over the past few weeks - one of whom is Alyssa Wray.
Wray is an 18-year-old from Perryville, Kentucky - a town where there are only 750 residents. She’s a 6 foot 2, vibrant young woman who felt like she always stood out in her small town.
You are like, this presence.
— Luke Bryan to Alyssa Wray
For her audition, she sings Jennifer Hudson’s rendition of “I Am Changing” from Dreamgirls. Wray brings all the judges to their feet, literally MOVING Lionel Richie.
