BECKLEY- -- Robbie Carrico, 26, was born in Beckley, and tonight he'll take the stage again -- vying for votes.

But, people here remember him a little differently.

In 1988, Robbie was a kindergarten student at Hollywood Elementary School in MacArthur.

His teacher says he was an outgoing, talkative student, and, she says of course very cute.

Robbie and the other nine male singers will perform tonight, and tomorrow the 10 female finalists will take the stage.
