Who Is Sophie Powers? The Unusual American Idol Audition, Her Fashion, Her Music.

If you haven’t seen this audition yet, set aside 2 minutes to watch it now (…the uncensored song has been posted here). Sure, it’s not for everybody, but I’m predicting she’ll be back in future episodes this season. I won’t go as far to say this was iconic, but it was just about as unique as you’re going to ever see on Idol. (favorites from episode 2 coming at 1pm central, episode 1 faves here)


Just for a second, forget the idea that Idol is a “family show” so a song with a dozen curse words (the same curse word 12 times, but you get what I’m saying) is probably not going to win over the Karens of the world (see: STFU verse 4), this is one audition that will have Idol fans buzzing. It’s entertainment and you can hear the judges and crew laughing throughout the song. That was a win for Sophie and honestly, my favorite part of the whole show. I really, really wish they would’ve sent her through to Hollywood! I’d like to hear her spin on… well, anything. If you want Sophie’s jacket, she has some merch here.

Sophie is on Spotify with songs that have higher production than this one, but nothing will ever touch “STFU.” Follow the Canadian on Instagram: @sophiep0wers or check out her website: SophiePowers.com
