1. Of course she is -- she's who the "worst singer" campaign chose this year

Every year they choose one, and they usually make it decently far. SHE'S their pick, so she may very well make the finals.

Even though I know I could have sang that Celine song better. Seriously.

8. I was pretty pissed when I found out she got to stay

The girl absolutely blows, IMO. She has not had one good performance so for, but there she is, still standing. You could tell the judges were NOT happy with her staying last night, or with A.J. being booted.

13. YUp -- and we still will probably have here for two-four more weeks

2. she's great for the young male demographic, though

So, I'm sure that adds to her appeal...

3. Lol

Nice

[RedStateShame]

4. You mean a mainstream "musician" is being awarded for assets other than musical ability?!

:wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow::wow:

I'll call Taylor "Is that Michael McDonald or is somebody castrating a basset hound?" Hicks right away!!

5. I would have voted for her...

6. Sorry, but she ain't all THAT, either.

Visually, that is. We all know she can't sing.

:rofl:

9. Not only a bad singer, but a really horrible person too.

Remember the group portion of Hollywood week? ("This just goes to show that God rewards good people")

10. Her friend was the one out there flirting with all the guys.

I wouldn't go so far as to say she is a really horrible person. We don't know that.

[distantearlywarning]

11. She and her friend screwed the other girl in their group during Hollywood week.

They argued for several hours and then rehearsed their own parts and ignored the third girl's parts even though she asked them to stick around for more rehearsal time. Instead, they blew her off and went to flirt with boys instead. When it came time for the performance, the third girl was underrehearsed and fell apart on stage. She got cut and Antonella and her friend went through to the next round.

When the third girl confronted them back stage, they were incredibly snotty. The poor girl was crying and upset, and Antonella's friend said to the camera, "Well, it just goes to show you that God likes the *good* people." Then she claimed that they weren't flirting with boys because they were there to be serious (as the camera cut to a shot of her flirting instead of helping Bailey and Antonella learn their parts), as Antonella laughed and agreed. The whole thing was incredibly mean and horrible.

Honestly, she reminds me of the type of girl who spends all of junior high trying to make other girls' lives as miserable as possible, the type of girl who will be sweet to your face and then cut you dead later behind your back.

I was thrilled when those pics came out, and I hope she was totally humiliated by them. I also keep hoping every week she'll go home. Nobody who gets success by stepping on someone else (or helping her bitchy friend step on someone else) deserves to be there.

I've also wondered if it was the bitchy friend who released those pictures to the internet. It honestly wouldn't surprise me. Girls like that never accept their "friends" getting ahead without enacting a little revenge.

12. I remember the friend flirting and Antonella and the other

girl practicing. And it is the girls fault if she fell apart. You can't rely on others to advance yourself in that show. It's cutthroat. She may be snotty, but I can't say that for sure based on what I've seen of her. I could possibly call her friend rude for leaving the group to flirt.

[distantearlywarning]

15. Well...

If you think their behavior was perfectly ok, then by all means vote for her.

I personally don't think it's ok to support that sort of thing, and I don't believe in victim blaming. But to each his own, I guess...

16. that is how that big-mouthed blonde girl,

the one that is now on tv guide, acted towards one of my favorite competitors in whichever idol she was in. To this day I can't stand her for it. She and the other girl would not rehearse at all with the girl that was in their group, they totally left her out. She got cut eventually, and so did the blonde, but the blonde is now on TV guide. I have never forgotten that and I cringe every time I see her because of it.
