Oh I know, makes you wonder if someone is holding up a sign that says “Wave arms in air and sway.” UGH! I would sit on my hands rather than do that.
Trust me it’s even more annoying having to do it than watch it...and I hate watching it. LOL.
That was my least favorite part of the whole Idol taping experience!
They make it pretty clear that as soon as ONE person starts waving their hands or clapping that EVERYONE does it b/c of how it looks on camera otherwise if only some do it. There were definitely some half-hearted ‘wavers’ in the bunch...and to say most people can’t seem to wave/sway the same direction at the same time is an understatement! Hee, hee. There were A LOT of collisions :-)
