Anoop Desai
Anoop Desai (born December 20, 1986) is a finalist on the eighth season of American Idol. Desai was selected when the four judges could not decide between him and contestant Matt Giraud and chose to admit both—leading to a first-ever "Top 13." Desai has credited his decision to audition for American Idol to the death of a friend, Eve Carson , who was murdered. During the broadcast of the wild card round on March 5, 2009, he gave a "shout out" to his alma mater and mentioned Eve, as it was the one-year anniversary of her death.
