I liked this guy and I'm glad he made it. He's got that soulful jazzy thing goin' on... Plus, he's got a really cool name!

These brief bits of info about each contestant are so much more boring than the ones that they used to have. I loved reading through them all to see who had personality. I did like Chikezie's answer to the last question though, that made me laugh for some reason.

What a great smile, he seems to have lots of charisma!!! He's one I look forward to watching and hope he stays around awhile.

Hahaha, I love his honesty! He's addicted to soap operas!

I really like this guy's personality. I loved his answer to Randy's question when he came to his audition. And I think he has a very nice voice too. I'm not sure if he's gonna bring musically anything new in this competition but with his personality, I can see him doing pretty good.

I think he deserves to win simply for his name alone. By far, the coolest name I have ever heard in my entire life.

Haha, but other than that, man, can he sing. The males are really strong this year, Chikezie is definately amongst my favourites.

I don't care how well he can sing, that name makes me think of chicken. Easy chicken. Maybe even Kentucky Fried Chicken and how easy it is to buy it. Ughhh.

Hahaha MsFroggy! You must be hungry!

I know Paula pronounced "Eze" as "Easy", which would be nice as it rhymes with "Chik-easy", but he himself says his family name as "Ezzay".

That said.... now I want some KFC!

I liked how he responded to Simon's lack of enthusiasm regarding his audition. I think Simon said something like, "After singing that, I know all about you." (Meaning that's the only kind of song he can sing, I'm guessing). Chikezie just nodded and said, "Interesting." Luckily Paula quickly came back with "I think you are interesting."

Not the most amazing conversation but when I saw it I laughed.
