American Idol

Nikko auditioned for American Idol in 2005 with the song "All I Do" by Stevie Wonder. Smith made it to the third round of the semi-finals, but was voted off on March 9 along with Travis Tucker.

Days later, Smith got a phone call from the producers asking him to come back in place of Mario Vazquez. American Idol later reported Vazquez left due to a personal dilemma. After returning, Nikko was dubbed "The Comeback Kid" by judge Paula Abdul after a great vocal performance of "One Hand, One Heart".

Although Paula liked it, it wasn't enough for America because that same week, Nikko was voted off the show for his 2nd and final time.
