Worst Finalist Ever?

leighdu · 09-10-2008, 08:24 PM

Lots of people will probably say Sanjaya was the worst finalist ever, but I still remember Jim Verraros from Season One. How in the world did that guy make it to the top 12? I know he got a lot of pity votes because his parents were deaf, but it was up to the judges to put him into the top 24 to begin with. I've never understood that decision

. Can anyone think of anyone WORSE than this guy?

Just to add up Taylor Hicks has the lowest selling American Idol winners album,
but I do not question his achievement on the American Idol season five in which he won.

I can't remember her name either but I know exactly who you are talking about. I couldn't stand the voice and most definitely couldn't stand those strange faces she made when she sang. Yep, she is for sure in the top 10 WORST for me too.

I personally couldn't stand Fantasia. OMG when she sang it sounded like it was coming out of her nose. She just sounded so nasally. I loved Jordan Sparks and Kelly Clarkson, but that's about it.

Taylor Hicks, would be my choice. I found him average through out the season and as a winner too he has been given cold response.

Ooohh, I know what you mean about Fantasia. I wouldn't call her horrible but I cannot believe she was the winner that season. There were several others much better than her. Yes, she had an awesome personality, but isn't this a singing contest?

Taylor Hicks is a horrible singer. He should have not even been picked to be in the top 20. He won and he didn't even release an album yet! His vocals are horrible and his dancing is horrendous. Even Katherine McPhee released an album!

Taylor released his first self titled album in December 2006 and it went certified platinum by RIAA in January 2007. Not sure where you heard or read that he never released an album, because he definitely did. However, it didn't really do him too much good because his record label dropped him a year later after that.
