"Murder. Murderer. You killed it!" Steven Tyler said. "Pia, you've got to know. There are a million guys out there in a million bars having a million drinks about you tonight."
"That was amazing. I mean vocally you proved to us and to everybody that you can sing an up-tempo. That was like, 'Check. Okay.' " Jennifer Lopez added. "It's amazing. You are really really really special up there. Again, I'm going to keep pushing you because when you see greatness...I am here to help you."
