Anderson was the winner of the second platinum ticket. The platinum ticket is a new type of ticket for “American Idol’s” 20th season.
This year, just three platinum tickets were distributed to participants. Those participants, like their gold-ticketed counterparts, got to go to Hollywood, but they also got to bypass the first Hollywood round and choose their pair partners.
“You might be the biggest star we’ve ever seen,” judge Luke Bryan said during her audition. “No doubt, I believe top 10.”
Anderson has made it to the top 24. Check out her amazing performance below!
