For those of you who aren’t currently aware of what has been going in Chile. On Saturday there was an 8.8 earthquake. Over 1.5 million people have been impacted by this natural disaster. Why post about Chile here on IdolPhenomena is because Season 5 Idol Contestant Elliot Yamin has been there throughout this devastating experience. Why was there he was participating in some type of music festival. For the past day his twitter account @elliottyamin has been on fire. All through the quake and the aftershock he was tweeting and many other news channels and blog sites have posted so just do a Google search or Yahoo search for the play by play. However within the last hour Elliot tweeted the following:
“Sweet!!..twitter on my phn is back up and working!. kinda like we're stuck on remote island w no way 2 get out...at least I'm alive & well!!”
It is certainly reassuring that our idol is currently alive and well. He doesn’t believe he will be moving from his current location at least until Wednesday this week. Throughout this natural disaster Elliot has acted as a correspondent to many different new shows, however tomorrow morning he will be on KissFM live with Ryan Seacrest so all of you Elliot fans out there check that broadcast out!
