Wow ...

The show ends with Chris Medina. He's wearing his engagement ring on a necklace. He explains why. Two months before he was going to marry his girlfriend of 8 years, she got into a car accident. She survived but suffered severe brain damage. Now she's in a wheelchair, unable to speak.

Chris blows them away with his audition.

The judges want to meet his girlfriend.

Wow ... this is making even me tear up.

The judges stand and walk over to her and hug her. Steven kisses her on the cheek.

I don’t like how they paraded that poor girl in front of everyone.

His only tie to her is his love. He could have kicked out any time but has clearly chosen to hew to his love.

They don’t make ‘em like that anymore.

It is GREAT he has a good voice. Yeah, we get some schmaltz but only a cynic wouldn’t like this story.

I wasn’t watching on a big screen in high def but it looked like he was relieved the guy could sing and was touched by the whole thing.

Probably teared up.

I think Jack Black here could do well

I love how they get an instant name on FR, that usually sticks all season.

What an outstanding man in all the ways that count.

Oh, Steven makes me cry. What a sweethearted man he is.

He seems to have a good heart.

Tiwan can floss with a rope, and apparently he could care less about his friends Charley Horse! Ryan is left to do the dirty work.

Absolutely. Like someone else said, they weren’t even married.

There but for the grace of God, go I. We’re all one accident away from being in her same situation.

“Can I have a sip of your Coke.” OMG WTH?

I can't imagine the parasites and bacteria that would have been swimming around Randy's ice cubes.

>>I don’t like how they paraded that poor girl in front of everyone.<<

I beg to differ. These are some pretty big stars. Yeah, it was for the cameras, but do you think that matters to her? I am thinking she is thinking “I got to meet and hug J-Lo and got a kiss from Stephen Tyler!”

I understand your perspective but it looked like she was pretty darn happy to me. Does it matter so much why?

Just a thought.

I would not want to be paraded out like that or take a loved one out like that

And I, for one, am happy to contribute to that noble tradition.

I just read on another site that Tiwan gave his sister a “don’t steal my thunder look” about her charley horse.

He probably figured she was faking it.
