Ramiele Malubay audition for American Idol was shown today. She auditioned in Miami, Florida since Ramiele Malubay is a waitress from Florida.

Ramiele Malubay got the nod of Randy Jackson and Paula Abdul but not Simon Cowell. Randy Jackson even said that he was surprised since for someone like Ramiele Malubay who stands 4′ 11″, she has that big powerful voice. The audition started with a story about another Filipina who made it to third place in American Idol, Jasmine Trias. Ramiele wants to duplicate or even surpass Jasmine’s feat by declaring that she will be the first Asian-American, American Idol.

Well, Ramiele Malubay is on her way to that dream as it was confirmed by paparazzi photos taken, when the Idol contestants who made it to the Top 24, had a photoshoot in California that indeed Ramiele Malubay is one of the Top 24.

Although unfortunately, another Filipina Neyshia Go who passed the San Diego auditions, did not make it through the Top 24.

Judging from the American Idol Miami audition, Ramiele Malubay is really good. And she’s proud to be Filipino too. Her surname distinctively Filipino, when asked her name, she said Ray-miel Malu-Bai for Ramiele Malubay of course. And right after the audition, her father was also shown and also looking very Pinoy..whatever Pinoy look it is, don’t ask me…I just feel it, just like when Renaldo Lapuz appeared in AI7 too.

Here is Ramiele Malubay’s audition video for American idol season 7:
