Very interesting read... once these contestants leave the show, unless they were my favorite, I never pay attention to them again.
Poor Corey Clark
He will never live that whole Paula incident down.
Kristy Lee Cook... one of the worst Idol finalists ever, imo. This quote bothered me:
Quote:
"One time I was the sickest out there”—with bronchitis—“and sang ‘Faithfully’ and did a really good job according to how I was feeling. But he didn’t care. Simon favored Carly [Smithson]. He didn’t give a rat’s butt about me. He had nothing nice to say even though I did a really good job. I didn’t have very much respect for him.”

Like, nobody cares how you're feeling. and Simon did NOT favor Carly.
Mandisa,
she's been really successful for someone who didn't place high. 3 Grammy nominations, she was nominated last night at the BBMAs, #1 single on Billboard (Christian AC, I believe). She and Carly Smithson are my favorites ever
