Jennifer Hudson has done quite well, although finishing seventh.
Candice Glover just won season 12 and last time I looked - she is black.
Here’s a breakdown of these malcontents and the reasons they were let go from mjsbigblog.com:

Right you are. The show launched Hudson’s career. And since, she has sold tons of albums and won an Oscar. Not bad for a racist show.
No, but she has succeeded. Her role in Dreamgirls treated her quite well. She won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.
I wish someone would be racist to me. :)
Thanks, I had forgotten about Glover.
I bet he knew their room numbers too
Did he ever deny he was guilty of the multiple charges?
I seem to recall Randy Jackson is a major decision maker/producer in the show....and is black
Paula Abdul was Hispanic.....
Simon Cowell was a equal-opportunity offender of contestant’s feelings; regardless of race....
Ruben, Fantasia and some other guy won....and they were black.
I’m sorry that the 14 gazillion contestants who auditioned over the years were kicked...there is only one winner each season.....regardless of race, and determined by audience votes.
I guess we need more Obama phones voting.
.....sigh
Jordan Sparks is mixed racial, but looks black.
liberals believe in the “one drop” rule now a days.
I’ve experienced racism and not once did it ever occur to me to file a lawsuit against anyone or any entity. I saw it for what it was, an asshole being an asshole; the world is full of them.
Judge Mariah Carey is mixed race also but she, like Obama, is considered black by the black community. This matters because it means three of the four judges are black...on a show that these people claim is biased against blacks. It doesn’t even pass the laugh test.
Of course you’re correct. I was just having some fun.
That is because they LIED on their application forms. There were other people disqualified, but not publicly because they TOLD THE TRUTH on their forms. The fact that all the LIARS turned out to be black, has nothing to do with racism.
I know, I was just sharing my experience. Blacks always cry racism when they don’t get their way. It’s because they have been taught to claim that life’s failures are no fault of their own but are the fault of a racist American society, the same American society that elected and reelected a black man to the White House. :-)
They probably got to visit him in his trailer. No parents allowed, of course.
I’d say that is very likely.
New York attorney James H. Freeman, representing the plaintiffs, says he began investigating the show after Jermaine Jones was kicked off on March 15, 2012, because he didn't inform producers about multiple outstanding warrants for his arrest.Ambulance chasing ping.
Hey South40..... For the past 5 years I have been experiencing racism every single day, but I’ve gotten kinda used to it. Being a white cracker just ain’t that easy anymore. ;>)
I haven't watched it for a few years now. Without Simon and Paula, it stopped being funny.
