Some Velasco family and friends are flying in from the Valley Island to attend the screening party at 7 p.m., when households here are watching.
Radio station 93.9-FM's Rory Wild and Krey-Z Oshiro will host. There will be pre-show entertainment and contests. Because crowds are expected, there will be two big-screen locations one in the main showroom, with Wild hosting, and the other on the rooftop, with Oshiro hosting.
If you can't wait for the results and want to watch the show earlier through satellite feeds, Eastside Grill at 952 University Ave. will link to the Midwest feed at 4 p.m. and show the West Coast feed at 5 p.m.
Interview on KHNL
Camile Velasco will be interviewed at 6:30 tonight on "Entertainment Tonight," the No. 1 entertainment magazine show on KHNL-8. She and other contestants will be profiled before tonight's "Idol" competition at 7 p.m. on KHON-2. |
Admission to the viewing party is free.
Similar viewing sessions are anticipated at Dave & Buster's for the other two Island contestants, Jonah Moananu on Feb. 24 and Jasmine Trias on March 2.
