We always end up playing 'Spot the Theatre Kid" in the audition rounds. Both the cowardly lion girl, and the red guy who slaughtered BoRhap in Seattle were so faking it all in the name of performance art.

I felt sorry for them too, JR. But, sometimes I wonder if some of it's not "embellished"--just a thought. I don't care if it is, I still like the show. As far as the families go, maybe the apples don't fall far from the tree---again, just a thought.
Edit: I didn't mean for that to sound mean...I just meant maybe the families don't realize it either..that's what I should have said.
I think you have a good point about the show being "embellished". I know a family that signed up to be on "Honey I Am Killing the Kids". To hear the child speak of how they "create" situtations let me know first hand that everything isn't what it seems....not as if I always believe what I see or read in the media. However, the child is very disillusioned with the process. I cannot wait to see her on tv...she is such a sweet and personable girl.

...parts of last night should be retitled..'American Psycho". My heart hurts for some of those people. Is there a cure for delusional behavior? For the record...Mr. Kitty has to put his hands over his ears and leave the room when he hears some of the singing. 
The daughter of one of our neighbors auditioned for AI and she said exactly that. This girl has a good voice (though it's more geared for opera than pop) and they weren't interested. They were looking for "stories." Otherwise known as the nuts cases we've been seeing the last two nights.

As I was watching some of these nutcases last night, I started wondering if some of them weren't trying to be odd & bad singers just to get on television. :shock:

I knew what you meant. Mr. JR said the same thing, that the families are just as clueless too. Like the mother of the blond daughter in the gold satin blouse. VERY strange pair.
But Simon's remarks: non-human, bush baby, etc. I thought I was going to die!
And other than the times Paula turns her back to the contestant, she honestly seems kind and tries to soften the harsh remarks from Simon and Randy.
And the girl with the pink fishnet on her arms and legs, what was that all about?? Bizarre.

I agree, I love Simon but a few of his comments have been hurtfully mean. The bush baby/odd comment was going to far. I felt bad for him and was glad they were a little easier on his friend the big guy.
Did you see pink fishnet's boyfriend? :shock: They looked like a good fit.
Last night was something to watch that's for sure....just when you think you couldn't see any worse, out walks another.
So, so true. Freak show.

I thought it was great when that hairdresser guy tried to put product in Simon's hair and the bodyguards descended.
