American Idol 6

[ZTAngel]

A girl in my sorority tried out a few years ago when AI came to Orlando. She had an amazing voice but she was cut during the second round (I think there's 3 rounds during the actual try-out stage...before Hollywood). From what I heard from her and have read on the AI message boards, the producers are looking for a particular type of person to put on the show. For instance, they love people who have unique background stories. They cut people with great voices if they don't fit what the producers are looking for. Although AI is a talent contest, it is also a television show. A normal, everyday person with a good voice doesn't create television ratings the way that a redneck girl with an ok voice and a locked-up daddy (a la Kelly Pickler) does.

I'm guessing this was the reason only a few people from each city have been making it through. I'm sure there were a lot of people in Seattle and Minneapolis who could sing but just didn't have what the producers were looking for.

Um blonde with the no bra... that was the first thing I noticed. Did you SEE how far those things hung down? What a freak show.

Did anyone notice the girl sitting at a desk or something wearing headphones in the audition room? I noticed her last night. What exactly does she do? I thought maybe she keeps track of the contestant names and numbers but wasn't sure.

Yeah, I couldn't stop staring at the no-bra. And that silky shirt she was wearing just made it even worse. Ugh.

The girl inside the door i'm sure was just a staffer.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who saw the no-bra factor. I was blinded by her shirt for a second, and then it occurred to me...she was wearing no bra! I'm not small chested by annnnnnnnnnny stretch of the imagination and I know if I walked around like that my back would hurt! What was she thinking? And she's almost 27?
Oy, and the fact that she and her mom have that hideous rat's nesty hair and too-red lipstick. "Like Mother Like Daughter" went a little too far there...but at least Mom seemed to be wearing a bra!
Her voice drove me nuts too--like a very monotone Minnesotan (Don'cha know?)

This is kinda off-topic, but did anyone think that Paula was completely wasted on Tuesday night? Her speech was slurring, and she was just rolling her head around everywhere! The woman needs rehab...

She was bombed. The TWoP recap has a few hilarious paragraphs concering just that point. (the whole thing is here: http://www.televisionwithoutpity.com...ontent/a12752/)

Mike thinks that watching her is just as amusing as watching the mutants on the show. Her head was rolling around and at one point, she was flopping her wrist around & staring at it like it was something special. I figure that's why they focus more on Simon & Randy's comments than time on her drunk ass.

Wow...Timika is a mess...

I'm settling in for a laugh session...
