Thia Megia, Clint Jun Gamboa advance off to final round of Hollywood Week (American Idol 10)

The Filipino pride Thia Megia and Clint Jun Gamboa are doing well on their quest to be the next American Idol.


During the third round of the Hollywood Week of American Idol Season 10 where they have to perform solo, Thia and Clint captured the hearts of the judges once again with their impressive performances.

The 15-year old student Thia Megia performed her rendition of Louis Armstrong's "What a Wonderful World". While Clint Jun Gamboa, a 26 year-old Karaoke Bar host, showed his confidence doing his cover of the classic "Georgia on my Mind".

They both got the judges approval to be sent off to the final round of the Hollywood Week. They are now a step closer to be one of the Top 24 finalists who will perform before live audience and broadcast.

Half-Filipino Clint Jun Gamboa off to next round of American Idol 10

If you're wondering if the asian-looking guy Clint Jun Gamboa who belted out the song "Get Ready" during the group round of the Hollywood Week in American Idol Season 10, is a Filipino?


Yes he is. I read this on the comments of his old Youtube video when someone asked him his roots even before he joined the singing contest. He said he is Half-Pinoy. Check his Youtube channel HERE.


The karaoke host and his group in the second round of Hollywood Week got a little controversial when they dismissed 15 year-old Jaycee Badeaux since the latter cannot catch up with their choreography. Jacee ended up searching for a new group while fighting back in tears.

It was a good call for Clint's group since they were able to deliver one of the best performances of this round. Clint was shocked though when Steven Tyler asked his groupmates to step forward leaving him behind alone, only to find out that they all made it through to the next round.

Jennifer Lopez said, "Come'on Jun! You know you're going through!"

Clint is off to the next round which will be aired tonight. He has to capture the hearts of the judges once again with a solo performance.

Thia Megia's Audition Piece on American Idol 10: "Chasing Pavements" by Adele (Video and Lyrics)

Thia Megia, the Filipino-American who so far made it to the second round in the 10th season of American Idol, had a very interesting audition piece. It is the song "Chasing Pavements" by Adele.

I so like her rendition. I thought it was another song. I hope she'll make it to the top 10. She's very talented, eh.

Meanwhile here's the music video and lyrics of the song "Chasing Pavements" by Adele.

"Chasing Pavements" by Adele (Lyrics)

I've made up my mind, don't need to think it over
If I'm wrong I am right, don't need to look no further
This ain't lust, I know this is love

But if I tell the world, I'll never say enough
'Cause it was not said to you
And that's exactly what I need to do if I'd end up with you

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there?
Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?

I build myself up and fly around in circles
Wait then as my heart drops and my back begins to tingle
Finally could this be it?

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there?
Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there?
Should I give up or should I just keep on chasing pavements
Should I just keep on chasing pavements?

Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
Or would it be a waste even if I knew my place
Should I leave it there?
Should I give up or should I just keep chasing pavements
Even if it leads nowhere?
