We’ve put together some info on the lucky boys and girls who left last night’s Phoenix, AZ (also home to “Idol” Jordin Sparks), auditions with a Golden Ticket in tow – no promises the crooning crop will make it into the coveted Top 12. – By Melissa Jane Kronfeld
Katrina Darrell, 20, from Chino Hills, CA, was the scantily clad singer who judge Kara DioGuardi called a “bitch”! Check out this video of her at a “photo shoot” (she is also a model) where she is rocking the same bathing suit she wore to the “Idol” auditions and watch last night’s clip below. More recap after the jump.

Emily sings in the all-girl punk rock band Go Betty Go, which she joined in 2006. Rumor has it that Emily will be able to go on her band’s European tour after all, as she gets cut from Hollywood Week.
J.B. Ahfua, 16, from Taylorsville, Utah, could be the next David Archuleta. Check out JB, who says he just wants to “help my family out,” doing covers and original tunes with his guitar on YouTube and from a performance last summer.
Arianna Afsar, 16, was a pretty lil’ thing from San Diego, CA. Check her out performing around the Sunshine State.
Michael Sarver, 27, from Jasper, TX, has a wifey, two babies and a lot of Southern charm. Oh, and he used to be in a band called Screaming Skulls.”
Deanna Brown, 25, from Louisville, KY, came without a family but left with a ticket to Hollywood.
