An “American Idol” hopeful got a second chance, thanks to her father and judge Carrie Underwood’s change of heart. During the March 16 episode of “American Idol,” Underwood changed her vote from a no to a yes for contestant Mikaela Bautista after Bautista performed a stirring duet with her father.

Responding to a request for a duet from Underwood, the pair launched into a powerful duet of “The Prayer” by Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion. Clearly moved, Underwood had a change of heart following the tear-inducing dad-and-daughter moment.

When Texas pageant coach Landry Champlin said she dreamed of duetting with Carrie Underwood for her 'American Idol' audition, the star obliged.
