Who Are 'Gimme The Mike! Detroit' Week 2 Winners?

POSTED: Friday, March 26,

Alicia Jaros, of Riverview, is the second "Gimme The Mike! Detroit" wildcard vote winner.

Viewers gave Jaros 37 percent of the vote. Smooth singer Isabelle "Novell'la" Gaddie, of Mt. Clemens, came in second with 25 percent of the vote.

The other statistics:

  • Michael Yanoulakis, of Clinton Township, received 18 percent of the vote.
  • Boneus, of Detroit, received 12 percent of the vote.
  • Joshua Bueller, of Ann Arbor, received 8 percent of the vote.

    Jaros is a senior at Riverview High School. She plans to attend Eastern Michigan University to pursue a degree in teaching.

    "I would love to be an actress, a model, a singer, or anything like that. I was Miss Michigan Teen USA 2003, and then I went on to Miss Teen USA, where I placed third. It was really exciting. I've been singing since I was 6 years old. I listen to anything, like country, rap, pop, whatever. I will sing anything that shows off my voice."

    Jaros will join Meg Murphy, "Gimme the Mike! Detroit's" first-week winner, and future wildcard winners for another viewers' choice vote in April. The wildcard winner will get to compete in the grand finale.

    Judges' Choice Winner

    Chiara Clayton, of Detroit, is the judges' choice second-week winner. Clayton performs with the group Kaleidoscope, which appears at some of the Detroit casinos.

    "I love Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, Teena Marie, Regina Belle, and Alicia Keys. They are real singers, people that make you feel. It's not so much in their image, or how they project to the people, but in how their lyrics, their delivery, their vocal ability, make you feel something when you hear it."

    What is "Gimme The Mike! Detroit"? It's a six-week series on Local 4. Each week, six contestants will perform before an audience and a panel of judges. In the live finale, the five winners chosen by the judges each week will perform, in addition to one wildcard contestant picked by WDIV viewers online at ClickonDetroit.com. Only one will be named champion and walk away with the grand prize, a Pontiac Vibe and the chance to be metro Detroit's "Gimme The Mike" superstar!

    "All 30 of these singers have great talent and their own special kind of charisma. The show is going to be hot and it's anyone's game," said "Gimme The Mike! Detroit" producer Jamie Kaye Walters.

    After each episode, viewers will be able to vote on ClickonDetroit.com for a wildcard contestant among talented singers who were not selected by the judges. Then viewers select who they would like to move on to the wildcard bracket. Viewers will vote for their favorite contestant after each show, and the winner will be announced on Local First News at 11 p.m. with Carmen Harlan and Devin Scillian.

    Get ready to sing along with "Gimme The Mike Detroit!"
