Crystal probably has the most talent as a musician, but honestly I can't see her as an AI! She's a female Taylor Hicks. She's got talent, but her natural genre of hippie is too strong and won't play mainstream.

She would do MUCH better to end up 2nd or 3rd.

The pressure must be unbelievable, not to mention subtle, and not-so-subtle, intimidations from other contestants. Maybe it all added up to Crystal’s “What’s the point?” comment.

Pressure must be hard for all of them, but especially for the front runner who is probably receiving hundreds, if not thousands, of disparaging comments like yours.

This is big business, big betting business, with much to gain by getting Crystal to drop out.
