Our very own Nastassja Bates won a local Milwaukee Idol Finalist Competition and has been chosen to perform in front of an American Idol producer on Wednesday morning at the Bradley Center. Natassja beat out hundreds of video submissions to the Milwaukee FOX local affiliate to perform with five other contestants on this morning's broadcast. She performed the song "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" from the musical, "Dreamgirls". Viewers of this morning's broadcast were asked to call in and cast their votes for their favorite singer. Natassja was chosen! Her prize is the ability to go to the front of the line on Wednesday morning's mass Idol auditions at the Bradley Center and have a guaranteed private audition with an American Idol producer. The private audition could lead to a golden ticket opportunity where she would be chosen to audition for the American Idol judges in Hollywood this fall! Good luck Nastassja!

Best,

Matt Gillespie
