Flashback: Leah LaBelle's "You Keep Me Hangin' On"

Leah LaBelle was widely considered to be a true contender on the third season of Idol at the outset, as she was selected as a wild card choice by Paula Abdul. Unfortunately, the then-17-year-old faltered on her most important performance when she took on The Supremes' "You Keep Me Hangin' On" during Top 12 week. Watch the performance below:



Despite her early exit, Leah has gone on to carve out a career in the music industry, taking one step at a time and making friends with some powerful figures and up-and-coming artists like Keri Hilson, Steph Jones and even Jordin Sparks. Leah is definitely one of the faces to watch in terms of new artists that will be rising in the ranks in years to come.
