Browsing: American Idol

It’s no secret Perry’s latest album, “143,” which was released on Sept. 20, has not been well-received by the general public, pop music fans and even some of Perry’s most dedicated followers. It’s obvious this album was intended to give bad girl vibes, but it was just plain bad. For those fans who have defended her through some of her rougher moments, “143” just might have been the last straw.

For one Baylor student, validation as an artist is starting to feel like reality.

Guitar in hand, Jasper senior Savion Wright was awarded his ticket to Hollywood last week after his audition on season 13 of the hit reality singing competition “American Idol,” a dream Wright said has been a lifetime in the making.

“My whole experience so far now is completely surreal,” Wright said. “It’s been a rollercoaster ride.”

There is a stereotype that most freshmen come to Baylor, choose the default pre-med degree and then change it at least twice before figuring out what that they want to do with their life; however, there are a few that seem to have it figured out who displace that stereotype. Fort Worth freshman Clark Nowlin is one of those rarities.
