Of all the things that happened on this endless week of American Idol auditions, nothing is more mysterious than this: How did the woman in the photo above only get a few seconds of screentime during a crying montage in the Salt Lake City episode?
I mean, just look at the puppet she’s holding. The mind boggles to think what she did with that thing in the audition room. Did they sing a duet? “Islands in the Stream,” maybe? Did Granny sassmouth Simon when he inevitably said her audition sucked?
Season after season, the camera-baiting insanity of the auditioners keeps escalating, but has the bar really been set so high that we can’t learn more about this damsel and her cloth avatar
Since we may never see footage of what happened, I’d like us to work together to create the story of this doomed duo.
After the jump, I’ve got some background questions about this photo that I need your help answering. Answer as many or as few as you’d like, but please answer from your heart…
