‘American Idol’ judges were stunned Wednesday night, and several audience members booed, when viewers voted off one of the “divas” they were sure would make it to the final cut on the show. Viewers booted La Toya London, putting her last among four remaining contestants. “I think America got this one wrong this week,” Paula Abdul said. “I think it’s a travesty,” echoed Randy Jackson. Many pointed the finger at Jasmine Trias, who cried after a lackluster performance that was criticized by Simon Cowell and the others, perhaps winning the Hawaiian sympathy votes. The next lowest vote score went to Fantasia Barrino, with Trias and Diana DeGarmo making the top two.

‘American Idol’ contestant Jasmine Trias is getting Pinoy support from fans in the Phillipines as she continues through the show’s finals. “Jasmine is thankful to all her supporters,” Rudy Trias Jr., Jasmine’s father, told Inquirer in a phone interview. “Jasmine has adjusted well to all the pressures coming her way. She’s doing fine. Her mother (Nora) and I are proud of her. We just keep advising her to just do her own thing.”

‘American Idol’ watchers know Jasmine Trias as the Hawaiian girl who’s very proud of her state. The 17-year-old singer, now one of two finalists from Group 4, just can’t stop talking about it! “I want to put Hawaii on the map,” she tells TV Guide Online. “People have misconceptions that we still live in grass shacks on the beach. Or that the hula is the only type of dance we know.”
