  1. Why no mention of the other finalist, Adlicious, which featured Laise Sanches who is of African heritage? Her roots are in Cape Verde, West Africa.

  2. Hi Angelo, I posted Sim'Ran because it was a great video. But I agree, that in that case I should have also included Laise Sanches (Adlicious). My fault. I have corrected the mistake. Thanks for the comment!

    Great blog by the way.
