i know what you mean but there are so many fantastic singers out there that aren't SUPERstar materia, they can't let them all in. if they had got through they wouldn't have cut it anyway. i think they are looking for a certain type of person as well. but i do know what you mean, the comedians get on tv, but hey that's what they're there for, they don't want a record deal.Originally posted by virgin^sexy
i think it is pretty fucked the way they let certain people through to the next round for their 'comedy value' when there are so many other talented people who don't get a fair chance. i can't really explain what i mean without just sounding bitter that my friends didn't get through to the next round, but that isn't the only reason why i think it. hmm.
I was going to go, but 9 hours in line? Geez, lucky I didn't go.Originally posted by virgin^sexy
i was there today, we got there at 6 in the fucking morning it was soooooooooooooooooo freezing!!!
we waited in line all day, eventually getting inside at about 12.30. then we had to wait about 4 more hours before our people actually had their numbers called and got to audition (i didn't try out, i was 'supporting' friends).
it was a fun day because i was with funny people and everyone was really nice and funny things happened but i think it is pretty fucked the way they let certain people through to the next round for their 'comedy value' when there are so many other talented people who don't get a fair chance. i can't really explain what i mean without just sounding bitter that my friends didn't get through to the next round, but that isn't the only reason why i think it. hmm.
did anyone else go?
yeh, don't forget it's a reality tv show. which lately, they aren't doing too well with ratings so they'd wanna get *entertaining* people to hook viewers. stuff the talent, at least if they're amusing ?Originally posted by iambored

i know what you mean, but i just kept thinking about how it would feel for those people. i mean, if i was a really talented singer and a judge (supposedly someone who is experienced in the music industry and can see quality in people) said 'sorry, you're not good enough to go through to the next round, but that man dressed as a woman, and that man wearing snow goggles who coloured his face in with a texta can both go through'Originally posted by iambored
