AMERICAN IDOL!!!!!!!!!!

What a crazy day!!!!

Britt and I got to the arena just after 5am! We sat around outside til 7:30 when they started letting people in. There were people singing everywhere and talking about the last time they did this. It was interesting to see how much talent really was there. Kind of overwhelming. There were those who were there for attention as well and sucked but how else will you be on tv?!

Once we were in the arena in our assigned seats we waited for the auditions to begin. Before they did they had to do all the filming for the show showing all the hopefuls. Then Ryan Seacrest came out to do his little parts going and coming from commercials.

Once all of that was done the auditions began. Our section was 3rd to go!!!!!! I don't know how we lucked out but it was nice! The anticipation grew. Brittany finally made it down to the floor.
They had 11 tables set up each with 2 producers. Groups of 4 went before them and sang one at a time. After they were all through the producers would decide who is any went on . Then the next group of 4 would step up. It was quite efficient.

After all the suspense my awesome sister did not move on. We were all sad and heartbroken but she took it in stride and chalked it up to a learning experience.

GO BRITT!!!!!!!!!!
