There are 4 rounds of auditions before you even get to Randy, Paula, and Simon. This girl sang live on the radio and was good-not great, but good enough she should have made it through. When she got to the 4th round of auditions one of the producers just hung his head and said wow-sorrry I just can't use you. And the reason? They already had enough good ones(or he had his quota of good ones)and they are required to send though a lot of the horrible wannabes that you see so there is a show to watch instead of just a lot of good singers. VERY SAD IMO!!! This girl said fully 50% of the people she heard should have at least made it to the final in front of the celebrity judges. Casts a whole new light on the show. How many deserving don't make it through just so there is some "entertainment"??
It sure does!
