Alexis Cohen from Allentown, PA might have had a shot at going to Hollywood if it weren’t for her total ‘bizarre’ factor. And how about that meltdown she had afterward? And WTF was with all the glitter?
Cohen’s rendition of Jefferson Airplane’s “Somebody to Love” was not horrible. I would even say she was good. Not great mind you, but better than some I’ve seen make it through in the past. I agree with Simon’s assessment that American Idol is not the right fit for her, and Randy’s that she would be good in a 60’s or 70’s cover band.
Prior to the audition, she explains her “look” and likens herself to a pirate, saying “I like things that shine,” and continuing with “I’m a lady.”
Well she got the shine part right, but her expletive-filled tirade and very unladylike gestures after receiving a no from the judges, belied the lady part.
She said she is now going to go for “actressing.” Good luck with that Alexis.
