Hailey 2.0
I like this girl. She doesn't have near the runs or sense of them that Haley has but, at least I think she held back from ill advised, gratuitous ones too many other singers try that don't connect to the songs.
No rival for Haley at all. but I enjoyed watching her for some reason. I think it might be because I feel like she climbs all the way into the song as if she's an actor in it rather than being conscious of being a singer on stage.
Or maybe (haha) I'm more biased than I admit to myself sometimes and like her legs. (all about that bass? not that she turns around or anything)
Idol used to still be fun in season 11 > this Hollywood/Vegas week came up when I googled Briele's (Von Hogel's) name .... I don't think Briele stands out too much among the three or anything but it was an enjoyable performance and it could be she's a person easy to work with that brings out good feelings and confidence from those around. (I notice Quentin Ziggler up there on trombone ... definitely supsect that he must be someone that people feel brings out a good side of themselves...or works cheap lol..it's not for any special trombone skills he's up there for)
She's the dark one in the middle. It looks like she'd been trying to self promote on youtube... 15k followers isn't any viral sensation but it's far from a poke in the eye.
She seems to have the vocal chops to cover adele pretty well (interesting someone made a pretty professional video of this)

and Sia
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WG4fSkn3Ijo High level of difficulty going against those voices.. not sure that she adds or subtracts.
Here is another of her on idol ... doing Adele then:
Mostly funny because of how she almost tackles Ryan Seacrest and seems genuinely happy and upbeat to have a chance to sing for a save even though it didn't get the save (they had a couple other in the big voices category with Jessica Sanchez and Hollie Cavanaugh)
I think it's cool so many Idol "also rans" keep with their love of music (Not sure that's a great idea after their 20's financially for all but the hardest workers/luckiest)
