I won't claim to be any sort of expert judge of quality singing, but I feel like I can pretty much predict what Simon Cowell thinks is good and what he thinks is bad. And I can say, with a lot of certainty, that the three finalists in the Miss America Pageant last night who sang for the talent competition would not have made it past the first round of "American Idol." But maybe I have no idea what I'm talking about since the girl who was possibly the worst of the three is the girl who is now Miss America 2007. Or maybe she's just lucky Simon Cowell wasn't judging the pageant.
One of the judges made the comment that someone could play the Kazoo and as long as it was worth listening to and something people would want to hear again, then it would be good enough to win. I'm not sure what the judges were judging on because the one girl who had actual talent didn't make it past the talent competition. And I have to laugh when people associated with Miss America claim it isn't a "beauty" pageant, it's a scholarship pageant. I'm almost positive the reason Miss Utah didn't make it past the swimsuit round is because she wasn't wearing a bikini.
I guess it's a good thing I didn't pursue my childhood dream of trying to be Miss America.
