Fans of 1980s music were given quite the surprise on Sunday night’s episode of ABC’s American Idol when the daughter of a famed musician auditioned.
The 23-year-old singer turned heads right away when she was accompanied by her famous father, who judge Lionel Richie recognized immediately.
She revealed before singing the song – This Tattoo – that she wrote it with her famous father, adding that she chose Idol because the show offered her the chance to showcase original songs that she wrote, unlike other competitions.
