Maddy Curtis on American Idol

BOSTON, Massachusetts – Maddy Curtis, the 16-year-old daughter of an award-winning pro-life blogger, impressed American Idol judges on the show this week, who unanimously advanced her to the next round.

The opening segment featured a powerful testimony on her family of 12 children, and her brothers with Down syndrome - one biological and three adopted.

About her disabled brothers, Maddy said that, “I think some people are a little sceptical of down syndrome Those four boys bring out the best in every person they meet. They see the world in colors, and we need to see the world that way.”

The 16-year-old sang a beautiful rendition of Leonard Cohen's 'Hallelujah'.
