A bigger shame is how the lords of bad taste are now trying to exploit her even further......Ben

She will make a lot of money on one CD because of her story and her clear status as an underdog, then she will fade into the background and no one will remember her.

couldn't have said it much better myself... it was cool that she sings well but you wouldn't expect it from looking at her, but eh... I would never go out of my way to listen to her again

I think she's awesome and, to ME, it's refreshing to see someone who doesn't look like Barbie or what our society seems to portray as "beautiful" have SO much talent.
I don't watch those shows as a habit but I have flipped thru it a few times and seen people who are "good looking" "hot" etc who couldn't sing worth a crap.
Maybe they thought their looks were going to get them ahead....
But, we DO live in that kind of society & that's sad.
I wonder how many people have been overlooked that had SO much to offer...
Just my .02 :)
I think she's incredible and wish her the VERY best - SHE deserves it.
