Fayetteville native Madison Watkins continues her journey Monday, March 29 on ABC's singing competition show "American Idol." The remaining contestants will perform for the first time this season with a band, vying for their spot in the Top 24 and highlighting the level of talent still left in the competition. "Stay tuned for the final judgment, revealing this season’s Top 24 and a surprise twist the judges share that no one saw coming," previews tease. Watkins spoke with What's Up! Associate Editor Jocelyn Murphy about her time on the show so far, moving to Los Angeles and some of her original music.
