Dilana Smith is an "old" pro who has performed internationally for about fifteen years. There's little doubt that Dave Navarro and Tommy Lee, who are also producers this season, are well aware of her performing history. It took years for Dilana to get a CD produced, but Wonderfool was finally released in Holland in 2000. She's a native of the Union of South Africa, but has primarily performed in Europe. It's my understanding that this isn't like last year, with a tour planned, but, rather, a one time performance in Vegas. Check out the raunchy lyrics at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ODc8bTMMTC0

Ryan Star could be the dark horse in this race. He's also an experienced pro whose current CD, Songs from the Eye of an Elephant is under the name R.Star. He's an excellent keyboard player, which would mean one less guy to hire.


Because it's a one time show, I'd venture to guess that if it comes down to these two, they'll both be selected.
