not all amateurs


I'm just about to go home to walk the dog before AI, but I wanted to quickly discuss the debate over the many professional singers auditioning this season.

Cage-fighting, horse-riding Kristy who auditioned in Philly, featured above, apparently was once signed by Arista Nashville and had the same manager as Leann Rimes, according to this article.

And if you think that's bad, get this -- one auditioner has even been nominated for a Grammy, this article says.

What do you think? Should they be ruled ineligible?

I don't think they should be eliminated... obviously Whitney Houston shouldn't be allowed on the show, but if it's a nobody, someone that hasn't really achieved household namedom, I think it's okay. They're still trying to make it, after all. But ... you've got to ask. If she had the same manager as Leann Rimes and still didn't make it, shouldn't she just give up???
