American idol finds people to prank the judges
See? This is EXACTLY what I did love about American Idol, people like Sophie who literally do auditions like this, make up something so hilariously funny and bad. That’s probably why American Idol went down over the years because they hardly ever do bad auditions anymore. Something like this could definitely go viral indeed. Who cares if she’s saying the F Word, personally everyone in music these days at least curses once so. So Sophie Turner, I praise you for doing this, I laughed my butt off at it. Bring back bad auditions indeed. 😂
Underwood’s best advice was to tell this idiot to keep dreaming? Why are celebrities incapable of calling out BS like this when it makes an appearance?
What in the Gabby Hannah? What’s with the bandaid?
This is what Canadians teach their kids?
Why is that funny?
Brilliant!!!!!!
Bummer…I liked it😮😢
