sob story overload

Asia'h Epperson offered one of this season's most dramatic back stories -- her dad died 30 minutes after she told him she was on her way to AI auditions.

You know that AI back stories have reached a new high -- or low -- when they bear all too uncanny a resemblance to the emotional histories usually reserved for figure skaters.

I'm not kidding, either. Radar was clever enough to devise this quiz, a collection of personal sob stories that either belong to Olympic athletes or AI contestants. The sad part? It's actually pretty difficult.

Think AI's producers have gone overboard in attempting to renew their emphasis on singers' personal lives this season?

If you think you're having a bad hair day, check out this picture of Fantasia Barrino's tresses. Clue: They make Sanjaya's ponyhawk look normal.

Have a great weekend and get ready for the start of Hollywood Week on Tuesday! Singing and crying and musical instruments! Oh my!
