“N’ on a ticket means an absolute ‘yes, they’ll go onto Hollywood’; ‘X’ is a maybe; and a Y’ is definite no but ‘the kid looks like a crier or a psycho, so roll the cameras.’
The book continues: ‘If someone has a good gimmick - y’know, dying kid, mom in prison, amusing facial tic - put a star in the top-right corner.’
A star in the right-hand corner equals more air time, because, the book says, tear-jerking stories are valued higher than talent.
To increase on-screen drama, and to make it look as natural as possible, producers manipulate contestants before they perform with the strategy: ‘Tell the singer the very opposite of the truth.’
