Liv Grace Blue performs “I Kissed A Girl" by Katy Perry, and Ava August auditions with an original song called “Neighbor Boy”

They’re both from California, they’re both mega fans of Katy Perry, and they’re BOTH going to Hollywood! Ava August auditions for American Idol with an original song called “Neighbor Boy,” while Liv Grace Blue performs her rendition of “I Kissed A Girl,” by the one and only Katy Perry, for the judges. Liv becomes emotional when Katy tells her that she “sees something special in her;” something that reminds Katy of herself. Lionel Richie compliments Ava’s “old soul sound,” that he says “comes out very fresh.” Will we see a friendship begin to form between these two Californian Katy-lovers during Hollywood Week? Guess we’ll have to wait and see!
