Contestants are not unique. The judges must be hearing it differently than I am at home. Their critiques are so over-the-top. No Adam Lambert’s. Kelly Clarkson’s among them. We will not hear them again once Idol is over unless one of them comes back as a guest. Even Ryan Seacrest is so excited for each contestant. Why?
It is very sad to hear the judges praise the contestants building their hopes up artificially.
Honestly would be kinder and constructive.
