American Idol: Get To Know Platinum Ticket Recipient Jay Copeland
American Idol season 20 contestant Jay Copeland received the third platinum ticket, allowing him to skip a round of Hollywood Week. Jay, whose full name is Jeremiah Copeland, is a 23-year-old from Salisbury, Maryland. He graduated from Salisbury College with bachelor's degrees in theater and music, and, before his audition, was in graduate school on a fellowship for a master's degree in acting. However, Jay said that he was given an ultimatum to choose between music and acting. Therefore, he dropped out of graduate school and chose American Idol.
