I feel really sorry for those people who say that this is the biggest moment of their lives. I hope that they have something bigger at some point, and the highlight of their lives is not getting onto some reality television show. If they won, then they could say that it was the biggest moment of their lives, but not just getting onto the show! That's pretty lame, if you put it up against graduating college, or having a child.
It does sound lame, but I imagine it as, if you dreamed of being a singer and never have had the chance, and then you get one step closer to it, being told your a good singer by the judges ect. ect.

What an idiot Simon is. "You're theatrical, not contemporary". Uh, which is harder Simon? It's like saying, look I'm glad you won an Oscar I just don't see you winning a Golden Globe.
simon was right....but a transition from 'theatrical' singer to recording artist shouldnt be too difficult...i think randy was right to give her a chance
It Is Actually A Tough Transition From A "Theatrical" Singer To A Recording Artist Because To A Good Recording Artist You Need To Have Great Control Of Your Voice.
Opera Singers Have A Hard Time Because They Are So Used To Screaming At The Top Of Lungs All The Time. It's Pretty Difficult In Alot Of Cases.
...I tried turning the page but this is the internet, and most laptops and monitors don't have pages....and all I asked was why you start every word with a capital, I didn't abuse you for it anyway, you clearly wanted attention, now your 5 minutes of attention are over.
Second, you are clearly a fan of things literal......which puzzles me when reading your screen name....nirvana is "a place or state characterized by freedom from or oblivion to pain, worry, and the external world". Now, if your screen name reference is a musical one let me warn you, this is how Kurt Colbain started..... worrying far too much about the inconsequencial
wow I never said it took five minutes to read it, we didn't reply to each other instantly, the whole thing took about 5 minutes, and all i did was ask a question and he flared up, which means that he was looking for an internet fight, I wasn't worried about it, just a question....and yes my sceen name is a reference to the band Nirvana, and thanks for the warning but I usually don't let stuff bother me, it was just a question which received an angry response. Why do you even care?
oh yes and you need to sort your ego out, because you just made a major judgment based on something that you misunderstood off a youtube comment, I'm not "clearly a fan of all things literal", and I'm not making a judgement off nothing here, as you clearly think you are better than me at least, first off you insult me, then judge me, then try to give me life advice.......take a good long look at yourself

She's great!!! Pretty, too. Why the hell did the judges not put her in the Top 24, for Christ's sake??? She is a heck of a lot better than that fat Joanne.
the judges really messed up not putting her in the top 24. shes too hot to pass up! and the girl who made it in her place was the first one to go. bad call, judges!
She should be in the next season, along with those other folks who made it to top 50 in the previous seasons.They should make a special season for those who almost made it to the top 24, Like Josiah and others right??
i hope Cardin McKINNEY auditions again next season. she's actually great and i didn't even like the decision when joanne got through. she definately has to come back, just as what paula said.
yeah.. cardin sounds better than joanne. joanne got the cut on the 1st week of top 24, and i bet if it were Cardin, she could've made it to the top 12!
As I saw her interview before she went in, I realized that you can usually tell who the weirdo lame singer are going to be. She looked well-adjusted and normal, like a girl you could actually hold a conversation with, so I knew she had to be there for logical reasons and be, if not fabulous, then definitely a reasonably good singer. She acted emotional, but was clearly a healthy, sane individual, and it comes through in her manner. Hope we see more of her!
i kno her... she used to go 2 my school b4 she moved 2 nashville... they said she is theatrical... but that is cuz she does a lot of plays... we were in a few 2gether... she is really sweet and i hope she goes far!
K, I'm officially crazy. I just bought ilovecardin dot com and will start creeping her and myself out. OMG i am in love!! anyone know how to work a website??
