Danny Noriega. I'm not sure if he has a following here. While he became one of the controversial American Idol contestants, he, unfortunately did not make it to the Final 12.

His Filipino sounding surname has caused a stir. There are some forums were some Filipinos claim that Noriega is a Filipino. Some of those who replied reacted negatively, saying that Filipinos have this thing about claiming every person who has a Spanish sounding surname to be one of them.
You may see him sing
