From her first audition, former janitor Naima impressed us with her unique style and courageous spirit. The mother of two had been working on the maintenance crew at a rock festival when American Idol changed her life.
Since making it into the Top 24, Naima has demonstrated that she is determined to remain true to herself when it comes to her music. Week after week we saw her step out of the box, and while her techniques were not always suited for everyone, they definitely suited Naima.
We learned more about Naima during her exit interviews. What will she miss most about Idol? Her friendship with Jacob and the styling!
Naima has been a member of various dance troupes, including hip-hop and African. She feels that dancing and moving are imperative in order to connect to the Idol audience.
She comes from a family of artists and has no regrets about how she shook things up on the show. Even when people didn’t understand her, she felt that they liked her.
