On being in the bottom three for the first time, Joshua tells the Advocate that it doesn't bother him since Haley was in the bottom so many times, yet made it so far in the competition.
I remember Haley (Reinhart) from last season, she was in the bottom three week after week, and she made it all the way to the top three, so I don̢۪t let that bother me or affect me. I just keep my head up and just keep pushing harder and striving for that number one spot.- The Advocate

EW Interviews Haley Reinhart About Her Album, Single, and Fans

Check it out Haley's interview with Entertainment Weekly about how she chose Free as her single, the feel she wanted for Listen Up!, who she's currently listening to, how her dad got her interested in Esperanza Spalding's music, who she likes on this season's American Idol, and what she thinks of us fans.
On the show, I wasn̢۪t as involved with Twitter, but there were many different group names, like iHartHaley and HaleysShindig, and they still have their own Twitter names, but they just formed into this massive spaceship of Haliens. I think it happened maybe while on tour and they could come and check me out. It̢۪s just been amazing to know that they̢۪re so on board and they̢۪re following and they̢۪re waiting eagerly, just for anything to grab onto. Half the time they know more stuff about what I̢۪m doing than I do, to be quite honest. I think it̢۪s amazing that they̢۪re so supportive. That̢۪s all I could ask for.- Entertainment Weekly

In case you missed it (or just want to watch again), check out the video of Haley performing her single Free. Pre-taped or not, being back on the Idol stage even brought out a few extra growls tonight. I also thought the cage was a really cool idea and really added to the meaning of the song.
