Now I’ll have to be subjected to another goat girl just because that girl’s father was mean to her.

The soap opera music was kind of funny but she wasn’t really that bad. They’ve put more questionable people through. Remember that crazy guy they put through last year just to dick with Simon.

Taylor Hicks?

By the way, I really like that the show doesn’t take seriously these dramatic moments, but puts them to music. If they played it seriously, it’d be too dramatic.

I really, really, really loathe the Jersey girls and they haven’t sung yet.

I don’t think the shorter Jersey girl was anything special but she’s getting the hottie examption.

The tall one is better.

I disagree with Simon. I WOULD like to see them “do it together.”

The Jersey girls were hot? Really? The blonde is 19 but looked 40. The tall one was better looking but nothing special. But I’m a straight woman so what do I know… 😉

They were annoying as hell in the video that showed them shopping and on the beach, but they seemed pretty humble and much less stupid in the actual audition. Had they been turned down, it may have been a different story though. The darker one was insanely hot though.

It’s funny how as soon as you can see that someone looks and acts normal, you know they’re going to be able to sing.

The blonde was just above average in looks. The tall one was smoking hot.

Stay away from the 16 year-old, Paula. We can see the dirty thoughts in your head.
