Lakisha Jones got her very own day.

So did Jennifer Hudson.

Now, Bothell, Washington is making sure another American Idol contestant is honored: The city is proclaiming April 11 as "Blake Lewis Day" in honor of its hometown beat boxer.

"Bothell's Blake Lewis has brought positive community spirit to this region by sharing his talent and ambition with the world," said Mayor Mark Lamb in a press release. "The City of Bothell commends Blake and his family on his tremendous achievements and we wish him the very best on American Idol and all his future endeavors."

The proclamation comes with an invitation to perform at the city's Music in the Park summer concert series. Blake's parents, Dinah and Dallas Lewis, will receive the honors while son Blake remains in Los Angeles charming the ever-cranky Simon Cowell, who's called him the male Idol frontrunner thus far.
