[litejgreen]

I live reallyyyyy close to Mankato Mn!!!!!!!! (:

[CiaraGlancy]

I love Shelbyyyyy! AND SHE'S FROM MN<3 I hopeee she tries out again next yr cuz I was so sad that she didn't make it into the top 24:(:(

[emmie22011]

Cute!

[emmie22011]

Cute!

[Walshaholic93]

Absolute joke that this girl didnt make the live shows! She has such a beautiful voice!

[crazymonk3y765]

Wow she's like in the middle of nowhere it's nowonder she is depressed so sad, but amazing.

[stevenmoore87]

Sooo sad she went home :(



[colts2170]

gosh she is such a beautiful girl. i feel bad she has bi polar my mom has it and i see how it affects her and it is very disease

[cassie15270]

is she in the top 25? i missed it last night

[stevenmoore87]

@cassie15270 No she went home :(

[cassie15270]

@stevenmoore87 NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! IM SOO MAD!!! she deserved to be there!! I really hope she doesnt give up...I hope to see her try out again in a couple years and win it!

[vagrantgypsy]

Love you, Shelby. You should've made it through. Don't give up. You have a great voice and definitely what it takes. Much love.

[hansdebartolo3]

She seems to have that special something to be a star..I think that it is possible someone from the industry might contact her and discover her.

[QHlover97]

She is AUHMAZING(;

[ValleryMing]

OMG! I wish I could sing like her! I visit this MakeAStar website all the time but only to vote. I get so jealous of all the talented people on there. If I had that kinda talent I would so upload a video of myself singing and maybe win $100.

[Fellformusic]

Thats not filmed in Mankato... there is mountains in the back of one of the shots, and i live in Mankato so unless there is some i've never seen...

[maxshuty]

I love how they film only farm stuff in "Mankato" where she's from and they fail to truly represent the biggest party school with the highest rate of STD's in the Midwest, MSU hahaha

[PetraBimBom]

@maxshuty Shelby is only 17... she is still in high school and therefore doesn't go to MSU. The reason they filmed "farm" stuff is because is because the outside of Mankato, (where she is from) is a farm community. ;)

[Papelmusic]

@maxshuty maybe she lives in a fucking farm?

[PsychoticTragedy]

I absolutely love her voice, and the way she sang that song was beautiful. I hope she wins.

What was the song playing at the end?

[irockmahworld]

@PsychoticTragedy It's Demi Lovato's Skyscraper:)

[stevenmoore87]

@irockmahworld No it's temporary home by Carrie Underwood

[sakinMurt]

american crybabies

[GirlsInSports]

i started crying when she started singing. beautiful!! <3 i hope God takes her 2 higher places.

[aniwaniwa]

bi polar, means she's nuts and using some fake rationale for being nuts, she's got too much time on her hands, navel gazing and going nuts.

get a job!

[Vic101able]

Shelby Tweten, God Bless you child. Keep sing you heart out,for you have a gift you can share.

[TranquilApathy]

She has Justin Bieber's prepubescent voice o. O

@tracymack20012001 yes she is..she is going to top 40..she's one group with Adam Brock, Erika Van Pelt, and Angie Ziederman

[transik4you]

why is her being bipolar a big deal? aren't all females bipolar?

[AnitaMarce88]

@transik4you God, you're ignorant....

[transik4you]

@AnitaMarce88 you can't deny that women are completely opposite of who they are at least once a month. that, by definition, is bipolar.

[AshleyErica20]

[dhkimboa]

[dhkimboa]

@4evermakeup99 thanks for answering let me go look it up now xD

[Clanki]

Depression.... Boy do I know how that feels >.>

Getting screwed over by life ain't easy.

I respect this girl for dealing with her problems.

[Extellable]

@cayycal I doubt anything you said is true. Besides you better watch what you say. If she wanted to, your IP could be tracked and you could be arrested for defamation.

[deanfender100]

minnesOta

[Goldberry2007]

WoW. Her singing this really touched my heart. I'm very much looking forward to hearing more from this girl.

[thatkidbehindyou1]

[mikaluver28]

SHE LIVES DOWN THE STREET FROM ME WOOOOO <3

[mommietofive]

Give us talent not sob stories. People live productive lives with bipolar. This is just to get sympathy votes and a special story on American idol...

[mallorie26098]

I live in a town right next to Mankato and when I heard that she was going to audition I knew that I was going to support her all the way!!:) Love your voice Shelby-3

[CeleryR15]

[abigailGmoore2]

[AshleyArnold10]

[jes09161970]

Stop saying mean stuff caffrya

[maelsoom]

looks like Kaley Cuoco!

[jenjen1551]

The new and improved Taylor Swift! What a talent!

[Lex1411]

Let's be real here , she probably isn't the best person ; fake , steals boyfriends , gets guys to cheat with her , has a bad relationship with her mom , & plays nice , innocent girl with a sad story . But American idol isn't about personality ; it's obvisouly about singing ; so just leave her alone for now , her real side will come out eventually , we just have to see what that is .

[gabbyevaristo10]

i love her <3 i hope she makes it far <3

[baallzdeep]

american idol sucks..no point in making a business in music this year..barely no one listen to that..plp get music free on the internet and people party these days nobody will buya cd from anyone..

[h2oclr1946]

A young lady with a marvelous ear and intonation, a beautiful vocal quality and most amazing of, all a young singer who didn't rush her tempos. These are the qualities that make her a potential winner of American Idol 2012.

[fuglycrap]

Just want to say that if you have to take medication in order to " be yourself" then your obviously not being yourself...

[caffrya]

@fuglycrap That is b.s. Mental illness makes you not yourself, and meds bring you back

[XxXgangstabunnyXxX]

@cayycal why are you being such a troll? Obviously no one values your opinions

[lsolate]

Mandy Moore lol

[thesamantha3529]

*wipes tear* SHELBY I LOVE YOU

[JBzebra1212]

[genej313]

I've not had goosebumps this early in the season since Carrie's audition. I love your back story, the working to overcome the obstacles life sometimes places in our path, that's inspirational for all of us, not just those who share your particular issue. Good luck, youngster, from one minnesnowtan to another. :^)

[ardag]

she has an amazing voice

[MrShootingstarme]

Whats the title of the song at 3:06?

[sarxisxme559]

@MrShootingstarme its called skyscraper by demi lovato

[hotshitmn]

[Cardenaz01]

She is my role model.!She sure showed me bi

-polar isn't going to define me..And a wonderful song that made me cry.

[tcribbs1]

Truly a beautiful voice and person. My brother was bipolar and he ended his life. You are very lucky to have this amazing gift. good luck and I will be rooting for you!!!

[deathrider536]

[liblibbxo]

@cayycal who cares who she is or her past? I'm sure her voice beats the shit our of yours

[michellesupport89]

Such an inspiring story and beautiful voice.

[joefuckingtweten]

its kinda funny how much bullshit ppl post when there jealous... everything in this clip is true, ive seen it all happen.. so lay of the "fakebitch" shit

[elguapoNo1]

Amazing voice and pretty (:

[OfficiaNewWorldOrder]

American Idol is awesome!

[TheOffensiveuser]

In other news, a few hundred tanks on a train passed through LA on the 19th, and on the 26, there was a black hawk helicopter drill taking place in the same city.

Are you all ready for what the NDAA has in store? SOPA and PIPA? Who needs it, ACTA is on the case. Oh, and if you've mingled with megaupload, EEA will make sure you're taken care of.

[izlude2]

@TheOffensiveuser hah awesome, way to reach the sheeple. ron paul 2012!! woohooo! wake up my fellow americans, we can beat back the globalists!!!

[oSeanyyy]

@TheOffensiveuser wtf is this? were watchn american idol

[XOMartha44]

Can we get this straight, please? No one can "steal" your boyfriend unless he wants to "get stolen." I don't know this rather talented young woman, but unfortunately when you are beautiful and talented - cute and young - you are going to attract a lot of attention from males. So yes, sadly, "jealous" is the word for the haters here. Just move on and get another boyfriend.

[Ehdword]

She is a brilliant singer. And none of ur hate comments can change that. I'm sorry.

[cayycal]

AMEN to the girl down there. she tried to steal my boyfriend multiple times. nope likes her cause she's fake as hell and such a bitch. this is the biggest bullshit I've ever seen.

[Up2hard4u56]

@cayycal if your going to talk shit why dont you say it to her fucking face instead of posting it on here. I mean god fucking damn. Grow the fuck up, and stop making other people look down on you. This girl seems so nice, and really wants to make it on american idol. I really dont believe you about her taking your boyfriend away from you. She just seems way too nice too do anything like that.

[forevergurl21]

AMAZING!!! like i almost started crying wen she hit thoes high notes, but then i did tear up with her story bc i was diagnosed being bipolar in may so i kno wat shes going through....i rilli hopes she wins, shes gonna b an AMAZING role model:)

[ShelbyTweten]

@forevergurl21 Thanks and i love you :)

[MegaHappyfull]

i hope you win

[Stefers143]

wow..soulful

everyone has the their own God given ability to express the truth and passion they have in their life because of their trials, she's been blessed with expressing it thru her voice.

[ShelbyTweten]

@Stefers143 Thanks <3

[Idol2012TV]

@ShelbyTweten What are your thoughts on being called "fake" and everything? The general reply is "people are just jealous", but any other explanation would be great. I'm speaking impartially, by the way. (Not swinging one way or the other in terms of support)

[ShelbyTweten]

@Idol2012TV i think fake is such an odd "dis" because obviously i am a real person. but other than that its not that people are always jealous, its just that it IS tv show & people believe that we put on shows to create fans. that was never my intention. my story is what was shown on tv & more. believe it or not, as long as a touch people & inspire them it can make up for all the other people who hate on it. its going to happen so all i have to do is be myself & hope for the best!" - shelby

[Up2hard4u56]

@ShelbyTweten you can really sing!!! I love you(:

[RAINintoTEARS]

anyone know what song is playin in the beginning where is says "i wanna fit in" ? is that what it says? what song is that

[Carlosrod98]

Oh my god, i know her. i lived in north mankato.

[kiddostacy]

the next demi lovato . :)

[TygaCaTV]

Hey guys subscribe to my channel for every American idol video coming up!!

[shelby2042]

shelby is a very beautiful girl and has an AMAZING voice. she is going to be the next american idol. can somebody describe what bipolar is to me please?

[ShelbyTweten]

@shelby2042 thanks

[luvjrny4ever]

@shelby2042 Per nami.org: Bipolar disorder is a chronic illness w/ recurring episodes of mania+depression that can last from 1 day to months. This mental illness causes unusual+dramatic shifts in mood, energy+ability to think clearly. 10+ million Americans have bipolar disorder. Go to National Alliance on Mental Illness site for more info.

[1996greendragon]

@shelby Tweten Great job (:

[MW2God789]

[BostonRedSox800]

[cayycal]

@footballmam173

actually she doesn't even make it past the top 24 sooo no.

[footballman173]

@cayycal

who gives a shit? shes gonna be rich and famous soon

[Idol2012TV]

@cayycal I saw your newer comment from a few minutes ago, but is there anything else for proof? Idol fans who knew Lauren were calling her a slut and stuff last year, I could kind of see how people get that view of her.

[iamemohadie]

@cayycal i fucking know her. don't even SAY she's a big fake bitch. fuck you.

[IhateShenique]

@cayycal wtf why would you say that...I KNOW HER PERSONALLY AND SHE IS NOT FAKE AT ALL!!! She is so amazing i love her so much she has an a amazing personality stop hating!!

[Zbootyrotation01]

@cayycal this comment kinda makes me wonder if you even know her. just because you think that she's fake doesnt mean you actually know who she is deep down. i know her personally and she is a great person. back off man, to each their own.

[nicoleyoleysmitherz]

Awesome! Go Shelby! :)

[angelina2283]

I can relate to her story have had depression forever hope you win you remind me of Lauren Alaina please will you write me?

[angelina2283]

I can relate to her story I have struggled with depression my whole life and singing and piano are my life. People said I am blind I wouldn't ever amount to anything. hope you win you sound like Lauren

[saramather4]

MINNESOTA! What a sweetheart :) LOVE her voice andn her story

[ShelbyTweten]

@saramather4 Thanks <3

[sarahanddave0209]

Sounds really good! She has this "real feel!"

[TheBrownskull]

Great Audition and story Shelby. We'll be rooting for you here from Minne-snow-ta! Bipolar disorder is a part of our family's challenges as well. Everything you struggle with will make you stronger and more compassionate! Sing it!

[r1r2r2]

Her voice and accent is a little bit like Lauren Alaina

[dubru450]

Even if she doesn't win she deserves to sing .
