Back in 2005, many pegged Amanda Avila as a dark horse during the semifinals of the fourth season of Idol. Despite the high hopes, it was not her time, as Amanda finished in the Top 16 with an underwhelming take on Gloria Estefan's "Turn the Beat Around."
The former Vegas showgirl did manage to find some extra screen time on FOX Reality Channel's Reality Remix, which basically was a half hour version of The Soup's "Reality Show Clip Time" segment and was hosted by former MTV veejay Lisa Kennedy Montgomery. On the show, Amanda served as a correspondent until it ended in May 2008.
Amanda found herself being hounded by the paparazzi (actually just a paparazzo) when she was out with Blake Lewis and friends back in October 2007. Watch the cameraman's proud work below:
In addition to her experimentation in TV, Amanda has cut a few tracks of her own, which can be listened to on her official music MySpace page. She seems to be pursuing a career in dance music, as her trance cover of 38 Special's "Second Chance" is definitely something that could be heard in a New York City club. She has also recorded two original songs called "Dirty Love" and "Alright Tonight" that are also in the bland club banging category.
