Her husband was right. ---

Damn, it’s sad when they start _begging_. ---

The guy singing the Misfits song was kind of amusing. ---

Can we have a “bras mandatory” rule, please? ---

Her voice is annoying me and she hasn’t even sung yet. ---

The mom and the daughter are both completely tone deaf. ---

What was that? (mom and daughter red lips) Are they for real? That was more talking than singing. Are kids cursed to weirdness by their parents? ---

Dear heaven, that girl’s boobs were sixteen times saggier than her mom’s. Otherwise, the apple didn’t fall far from the tree. What an odd, flat delivery that girl had. Not just singing, but speaking. But, oh, my eyes with those flappy, saggy boobs! ---

Finally, someone who can sing. I wonder why he was rejected the first two times. ---

How did this guy fail twice to get through? Great voice. ---

What’s wrong with that girl’s arms? They look…padded or something. And red. ---

Oh man. Those sleeves are NOT flattering those arms! Rather too reminiscent of hams. ---

Definitely thinking the same thing. Her torso isn’t that big. ---

He did say he took lessons. I predict they will show his other auditions during team week. Or they should. ---

I don’t know if it’s the hair or what but something makes me want to pop that kid in the mouth. He was good enough to go to the next round, I guess. I just find him annoying. ---

Who does Blake look like? Maybe a dancer on SYTYCD last season? I enjoyed him; would have enjoyed less ego, but enjoyed it. ---

I like his voice better than his sister’s too. But the judges were right, she had more style. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/american-idol-1-16/388228.md?page=6) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/american-idol-1-16/388228.md?page=8)
