Pia Toscano hails from Howard Beach, New York. She tried out for American Idol in Season 6, and a lot of fans are happy to see her back on the Idol stage. Her previous stint got her all the way to the Top 40 before she was eliminated, and now she’s made it to the Top 13 of Season 10.
Little Pia Toscano started singing and dancing almost as soon as she could walk. She started taking dance class at 2 1/2 years old and she started competing in talent shows at the young age of 4. She went on to do some theatrical stuff (a performance of “Jesus Christ Superstar” at a local church) and became the “exclusive singer” of the national anthem at her school. She sent out tapes and started singing the national anthem for the Brooklyn Cyclones.
Pia Toscano’s audition this year took place in New Jersey, but I can’t locate the footage of it. If you have a lead, let me know!

Definatly… They just lost me as a voter. This isn’t right.

I had no problems voting for Pia last nite. They all have to go sometime, all but one. Pia is gone, she will be fine. Too much confidence in her fans, thinking they didnt need to vote was her downfall.

Pia, You truly in my opinion are the best on Idol this year. Not only will I see you on stage in the future singing probably a top billboard chart hit of your own, but your like an idol to me. You are a beautiful young woman who has one heck of a voice. YOU GO GIRL!

I have heard several times tonight that someone tried to vote for Pia but it showed that their votes went on another person. Something is wrong and that needs to be looked into!

That is ridiculous! Pia was awesome and she should have won the entire thing! Something is fishy here and American Idol just lost two viewers forever!
