The X Factor’s Rachel Crow Gushes Over American Idol’s Joshua Ledet

SPOTTED: The X Factor finalist Rachel Crow ran into American Idol finalist Joshua Ledet last night after the Idol semifinals.

Funny coincidence that the two met on a night that Joshua sang I’d Rather Go Blind by Etta James which Rachel had also performed during her time on The X Factor. Sadly, Rachel performed that song as her ‘save me song’ on the night that she ended up being eliminated.

Crow could not stop gushing over how well Joshua rendered his interpretation of the James classic. Watch Joshua’s performance here.
