Failure in San Antonio isn't confined to bad Billy Idol imitators, though. We were also treated to Jasmine, who offered an especially melancholy take on a Deborah Cox hit. Then, after being dissed unanimously, she proceeded to verbally assault the judges, offering a succinct, "Y'all are being rude."
Don't look at me for sympathy, Jasmine. Maybe "Nobody's Supposed to be Here" didn't work out for AI, but it remains an accurate description of your fan club meetings.
But thank God for Baylie Brown, a hot 16-year-old Texas blonde billed as a small-town girl with big-city dreams. Hailing from Krum, population 1,542, this farm girl got her own intro segment plugging her love of fashion and her role as a big fish in a small pond.
Fortunately, her take on Faith Hill's "Stronger" lived up to the hype, and she got the thumbs-up for Hollywood. Simon called her "born to be a pop star," and Paula praised her fashion sense, arriving at some weird conclusion that Krum is a town with more cows than people.
At any rate, Baylie's on her way to Hollywood, and was greeted by a cowboy hat-wearing, white-trash family who probably celebrated her victory at Wal-Mart.
Paula's parting words? "I want my name to be Baylie."
Hey Paula...maybe, if you're really nice, I'll let you trade places with my dog.
