Yesterday night on Sunday 5 March 2023 during episode 15 of Australian Idol Season 8, the Top 10 contestants performed live for Australia’s vote under this week’s theme, “Judges’ Choice”.
Towards the end of yesterday’s live show, 27-year-old Noora H was saved by the judges’ vote and automatically progressed to the Top 8. Noora H performed “The Voice Within” by Christina Aguilera.
At the end of the Top 10 performance live show, a visibly happy Noora H stated that;
I just sang the voice within and it was one of the most special performances I’ve ever done, and I just hope that everybody else loved it as much as I did and I chose that song not only for me and my younger self, but for you guys as well.
Therefore all the other 9 singers in the Top 10 were left to the mercy of Australia as voting for the Top kicked off.
