Why I Don't Like the Bikini Girl

So, when I watched American Idol auditions this year, I didn't really find much fault with most of the contestants, except one. Let's call her Bikini Girl. I never bothered to learn her real name. She comes into the audition skinny, toned, tall, in a skimpy bikini with a decent singing voice. Simon and Randy are just enjoying the picture and she gets into a diva match with Kara about a Mariah song. I wanted to be like, "honey this is your future, don't mess with someone who could make or break you and your career". So, I thought this week would be better, she's back, but at least she's wearing clothing. I was wrong. She was wearing an UGLY cocktail dress, black, extremely short with some kind of dead bird feathers on the bottom, no tights and hooker heels. She just looked cheap. She sings a couple of bars of "Breathe" by Faith Hill and it was so boring,beyond boring. And of course she goes on. It's such a joke, at least to me, because seeing people in the theatre business I have seen lots of girls who look like that and can project that image, with a heck of a lot more talent, who never get that kind of an opportunity.
And what kind of a story is it to tell your grandkids, "oh your grandma did something that shocked America, she went on a singing competition show in a skimpy bikini and showed America her goodies!" Vomit. I hate when women devalue themselves and their talents to just their bodies. It's like, honey, go on Top Model, there are other people here who deserve your spot a whole lot more, oh yeah, and go eat a burger, you look like you're gonna fall over.
