Jessica Sanchez
As American Idol's Top 13 took the stage Wednesday night, some dominated with their showstopping voices (Jessica Sanchez! Joshua Ledet!) while others let nerves get the best of them (better luck next time, Shannon Magrane). But some of last night's most entertaining storylines occurred when the cameras ...
