Video: Chatting with 'American Idol' finalist Lauren Alaina
After Thursday night's show, Pop & Hiss caught up with the 13 chosen "American Idol" finalists, who were immediately (and we mean immediately) thrust into the spotlight of flashing lights and eager reporters looking for a sound bite from America's new darlings at an after party thrown in their honor Thursday night at the Grove.
Check out video interviews of them all. We chat about favorite artists, inspirations, who they'd love to cover if given the chance (Black Keys! Esperanza Spalding! Beyonce! Usher?) and if they think they have what it takes to walk away with the crown this year.

Lauren Alaina is just so adorable- 'unjaded', positive and a real breath of 'fresh country air'!! I have enjoyed watching her entertain- she does so naturally!
For sure, she will be a crowd favorite...especially with her peers.....she might have the'Britney Spears'affect on teenagers..i.e. when Britney was first discovered.
