shepperd,

I miss the crazies! And you’re right about the bad singers teaching music. Dang. I hope their students are getting the lessons for free.

ARB Ent,

I know people who have tried out and they confirmed not everyone gets in front of the judges, though the auditions may be edited to look like that on TV. I don’t know if it’s a real controversy, though, because I don’t care and don’t know too many people who do. We know it’s not really “reality.” I just want to hear people sing (or try) and be entertained.

I have to agree with you oh wonderful one. there were no crazies to sink my teeth in to. although that brotha with the bass voice made me sad. who told him he could sing and let him do that. and have you noticed how many of the bad folks actually teach music for a living. i am truly scared. and really, granma in reality could whoop all ya’lls asses. thats a strong ass lady!

Wasn’t there a contestant last year who said even though it looked like he auditioned for Simon and the gang, he never actually got in front of them? What happened to that controversy?

I never agree with the “winners” on this show (well, except for Kelly Clarkson, who still hasn’t met her full potential), but I REALLY like these auditions.

I don’t know about the judges being too nice…but we were thinking the exact same thing about that sweet-as-pie Jessica Furney…who is gonna take care of Grandma while that bitch is in Hollywood? I am really concerned for that woman…
