>>So far she’s the best of the girls. She’s got a shot if she goes for a big finish!

making us all wince probably wasn’t the “big finish” she hoped for.

But she is probably through — agreed she is the best of the women tonight.

I think I 75% liked her. She should lose the flourishes, though, the screams and extreme high notes. It’s like she was trying to get in everything she is vocally capable of in her allotted time.

There’s a lot of lust there and Jason couldn’t focus on Melissa because of Molly.

But they MUST bring her down or their favorite “Lil Rounds” won’t win.

The fix is in!

Kristen McNamara

She sings "Give Me One Reason" by Tracy Chapman. Her voice is okay. But the song is thin. Not a good choice.

She honkys-it-up with a few whoooos and growls.

Kara: I'm liking the hair. You are a great singer. You can hit those notes. Not sure that was the perfect song.

Paula: When you were in Hollywood, you sang a Kelly Clarkson song. That's what I expected from you. This was safe. You have a hell of a range. Great vocal.

Simon: Odd song choice, but you do have a good voice. You dont' feel as if you know who you are. I'm not sure who you are.

Randy: I agree with Simon. Felt like I was at a karaoke thing with you.

So far I think it’s Danny’s to lose. He’s got the “chops” and the “sob story” to go all the way this year.

I don't know. I think that theatrical gay guy has a really great voice. If he doesn't come off too much like a queen during his run in the top 12, I think he'll stick around deep into the competition. Plus he has one really bad habit that won't be easy for him to break. Sometime in his youth when he was getting vocal training, someone told him to move his tongue to the front of his mouth to open up his throat so he could hit those big money notes. He acquired the bad habit of actually sticking his tongue out to do it. Not a terrible thing when performing on stage, but the TV camera picks it up and makes it look really strange.

She does seem rather sweet! But she’s right, a stylist is in order!

I was wondering the same thing. It’s this season’s, “The song is too big for you.”

To: retrokitten

yep totally agree with that. can’t do it all in 2 minutes

I think the judges were right on in their comments. She probably deserves another chance cuz she can sing really well.

she just lacks in the personality dept.

NO offense, but I do not want this gender confused queen that over accessorizes, to win.

Maybe she’s the manufactured “before” picture.
