So what if she didn’t win American Idol this year–…local fans can still come and celebrate with Syesha Mercado tomorrow evening at Gulfstream Park for her welcome home party. If you’re lucky, she might sing a couple of tunes but according to the press release below, she’ll probably just be on hand hanging out and greeting fans.
——
Syeisha Mercado, the second runner-up of the top-rated television program American Idol will meet her fans and pose for photographs at a welcome-home party held in her honor at Gulfstream Park’s Frank’s Energy Beach at 7 p.m., Wednesday June 4.
We feel thankful for our staff and for the privilege of fulfilling our mission to be an unparalleled source of information and insight in Miami. We’re aiming to raise $30,000 by December 31, so we can continue covering what matters most to this community. DJ Stevie M will spin the tunes, and guests can enjoy bar and food service. VIP bottle and champagne service are also available. Mercado, a Miami-Dade County resident and Florida International University student, will soon embark on a yearlong nationwide tour with other American Idol finalists.
We’re thankful for you. Are you thankful for us?
Help us continue giving back to Miami.
You can also party with her this Thursday at Karu & Y where she’ll be hosting an event as well.
If she keeps on singing like she does here in this video, she’ll be a star fairly soon regardless of her third place finish on the show.
