Meet American Idol Season 20 Lady K
Lady K (born in 1997) is a 25 years old singer from Montgomery who earned fame after participating in the famous show American Idol season 20.
The real name of this music artist is Kezia Istonia, and she released her songs on her YouTube channel. After having no luck for years, Istonia thought about competing in ABC’s show and is hopeful of earning popularity.
When Kezia came into the audition room, the judges asked her to introduce herself, to which she explained her emotional story. Now it was the time to perform, and K chose to sing Katy Perry’s “Wide Awake.”
She performed well in her subtle voice. It was Katy’s song, so she went first and said, “You sing with such elegance, beauty, Grace, and filigree. It’s like you reinvented the song. It’s like your heart is shining through your vocal cord.”
Knowing what Kezia faced in her life, Lionel said, “Tuskegee will never be the same town; I just know that you are there for a purpose.” All three judges gave a “Yes,” and Lady K walked out of the audition room with a golden ticket without wasting any time.
Living In Shelter Home
In 1997, Lady K (age 25 years) was born in Montgomery City of Alabama, at her father, Miles Montego Foggy’s home. Due to some domestic issues, K and her four siblings were raised by her single mother. Life at Montgomery was not easy, and the family was suffering financially. Then, K’s family got homeless; the situation was so bad that one of her brothers named Poppy committed suicide.
It was one of the most challenging times for the family. They did not have money for his funeral, and they asked for people to donate so they could bury Poppy. During American Idol, Lady said, “There were times where I didn’t think that the rest of my family would pull through.”
Poppy’s death started to fire in Kezia Istonia, and being the eldest kid; she decided to take things in hand and do something for the family. Now she is a famous singer in her hometown and working hard to be able to work in Hollywood.
Reaching the Top 24
After auditions in the next round, Lady K got paired with a former football player and a talented singer Dan Marshall. They gave an excellent duet performance and quickly made their place in the top 59. The next challenge was to compete with her fellow contestants to create a place in the top 24, and to do that; Lady had to perform well in the ShowStopper round.
The song that she chose for her ShowStopper performance was “I’d Rather Go Blind” by Etta James. Her performance was so fantastic that not only Lionel but Katy and Luke also gave her a standing ovation.
Disney Aulani
All the top 24 contestants of American Idol season 20 were brought to a resort named Disney Aulani in Hawaii. They had to perform in a beautiful place at the beach in front of the audience. K’s time to sing came at night when many contestants were done with their performances. In her beautiful voice, Kezia sang Carrie Underwood’s “Before He Cheats” and gave a banging performance.
When the time came for the judges to give their remarks, Lionel went first and told the audience that Kezia Istonia traveled a long way from being homeless to performing as a singer in Hawaii. It was Katy’s turn, and she complimented K for her cute outfit. Perry advised Lady to give her 100 percent effort in the upcoming performances. Luke Bryan also praised the Tuskegee girl and wished her luck for the rest of the journey.
Songs and Personal Life
Istonia is a courageous lady, and instead of waiting for the right opportunity, she started writing her songs and released them on different music streaming platforms. There are a total of 10 songs that Lady released over the years. Besides making songs, she also does music concerts and lives show in her town.
Because of being in the music industry, she has to collaborate with many local singers and sometimes even rappers. On her Instagram account, you will see her with many of her fellow singers, but one thing that we have not found is an image where we can see her boyfriend. Most sources say that the girl is currently single and not dating anyone.
