I am so proud of our Louisianan American Idol top five finalist George Huff. He kept on smiling.

The two weeks of his lowest performance he was struggling with throat and medical problems. Louisiana could not have had a better representative, though.

He is a good person inside. Was brought up to believe we should be thankful for what we have; treat others the way you want them to treat you.

This special young man has great thing to come. American Idol on tour will come to Louisiana this year. I have been told the month of August. Tickets will go on sale this month. George is sought after even to perform at Saints games. However, I vision him on TV, radios, and CD's for many years to come. Our votes were a drop in the bucket, but it takes a lot of little drop to fill a bucket.

He appreciated all the people who voted his progress. He will be home within a week in New Orleans, but the practice and tour will begin in June.
