Thank you! She has a unique voice, is VERY camera friendly, and has a Novel tat on her arm that would take weeks to figure out just WTF it read, not even to mention the contemplation which would have to take place about it!
She is made for celebrity, maybe not AI, but there's something about something there.
I think they should sing a different song each time. No more repeats. Some of these people sang songs that they either auditioned with or sang during hollyweird week.
By the way, I meant to add that I think Megan will get a wild cars spot.
I’m not exactly sure how they are going to do the wild cards. Sometimes it sounds like they can bring back someone from any point, including pre top 36, which would be stupid, because if they would good enough for the top 36 then they should have been there already.
Each Idol judge will pick two top-36 contestants for Thursday’s wild card round

The rumors, speculation, and contradictory information about American Idol 8’s wild card round has been cleared up, mostly.
During Thursday’s results show, Simon Cowell said, “We’re going to bring back a selection of people who we think deserve a second shot—maybe they chose the wrong songs. I think we’re all in agreement, maybe a couple even from tonight you’re going to see again.”
Earlier, after talking to a show rep, MTV News reported that “each judge can pick two contestants from the top 36 — from which everyone is eligible — and those eight (or possibly nine) singers will perform a song on the one-hour March 5 show, with three advancing into the top 12. … The same rules apply as during the audition phases, with majority picks winning the day and judge Simon Cowell casting the tie-breaking vote should there be a 2-2 deadlock.”
That will all happen next Thursday. And yes, skeptical people who have e.mailed me from anonymous e.mail addresses, the wild card episode (singular) does air next week, the same week as the third and final semi-final round. The semi-final performance episode will air Tuesday, results come Wednesday, and the wild card round airs Thursday—with performances, judging, and selection apparently taking place in a single hour. Crazy. Then again, I bet they’ll still find time for some filler.
'American Idol' aims to enliven its upcoming live shows
Simon Cowell's critical eye goes beyond American Idol singers. He says this season's first live outing was "a bit flat."
Last Tuesday's show "didn't quite gel. There were some audio issues. The lighting felt too light, too daytime," the Idol judge says. "We know what went wrong and what we're going to do to fix it."

Last week's singers don't get off the hook, either. Cowell praised some performers, calling Alexis Grace a welcome "dark horse," but says "there are better singers to come" as 12 compete again tonight (Fox, 8 ET/PT) and Tuesday.
Overall, Cowell is happy with Season 8, saying changes to the semifinal structure, including the return of judges' wild-card picks, will yield better finalists. In next Thursday's wild-card round, the judges bring back eight or nine singers — not necessarily just from the semifinals — and pick three to round out the Top 12. "I think when we put the 12 together, there will be more personality, more interest and just more diversity," says Cowell, who wouldn't specify standouts.
