American IDOL

Didn't want to write about this...but it wouldn't be fair to the readers if I didn't. Ok, here it goes...I told my self i would never ever audition for AMERICAN IDOL...i dont even watch that show. I always thought it was poppy and cheesy and corny and i hated it. However my friend practically dragged me to audition for the show. I didn't want to, but i figured hey why not maybe if i make it far enough i can use the show for exposure to get my music out. Plus for me it would be the last chance i would have to audition before the age cutoff...

Registration...was easy piece of cake. Went in, showed my id, got my braclet and the forms and bounced (10 minutes)

The actually audition was...A NIGHTMARE! First off they told us that we had to be there at 5 am. SO the night before i tried to go to bed early but was tossin and turning. I didnt get good sleep. I had to wake up at 4 am, didnt cook breakfast because i was rushing. I got there at 5 am only to stand in line for 3 hours...OUTSIDE. NO FOOD NO NOTHING, they did have bagel stands so i got a bagel and a gatorade. After standing next to complete FREAKS AND WEIRDOS dressed as clowns and NINJAS...I finally got in, only to find out the actually audition doesnt start till 10 am. SO we are in the arena trying to learning the cheesiest wackest 80's songs "HIT ME WITH YOUR BEST SHOT" to sing on camera to boost the shows ratings...WACK!!! Dude teaching us the songs keep quenching is butt checks to hit high notes...WACK...and GAY

Anyways i didnt actually audition until 6:30 PM...note there was no food, i was on E and my head was killing me, i mean they had junk food like pizza and fries and hot dogs which they were selling for 20 bucks , but come on should a singer really eat that before they audition? I had no choice. I felt like Sh** How they did the actually audition was they had tables set out on the floor with 2 judges to each table, you sang for them in groups of 4 , each person going for 30 seconds...they liked you, you go to the semifinals...in which you sing for Paula, Simon , and Randy in NOVEMBER...NOTE PAULA,SIMON,and RANDY were not there...THIS was nothing like you see on tv. Long story short. The judges were complete assholes, and no one really made it to the semifinals man. THERE WERE 30,000 people there and only 150 got picked...AND the people got picked were like this. half of them were actually good. the rest were clowns, one dude stripped down to his speedo and didnt even sing...but he got picked...WHACK!

HIGH LIGHTS: RYAN seacrest was there and Jordin Sparks was there (looking soo good by the way)

Low light: Walking to the bathroom and hearing 1000 people sing the poppiest songs in the world giving me a headache...and then going to the bathroom and hearing opera singers warming up...giving me a migrane...and then walking back to my seat to hear a group of hippies singing some more pop....JESUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I officially hate POP!!!!!i almost gave up singing completely!

This was the worst experience i have ever had musically. AMERICAN IDOL IS so so so wack and the staff and the whole process is very unprofessional...but hey its entertainment right. ITs all about ratings and TV>>> no thanks

I GOT CUT and im GLAD!!!!!!!! THE Best thing that came out or AMERICAN IDOL is JORDIN SPARKS
*but at least i can put this on my resume*
