That was the problem with Lakisha this season: she just could not move
out of that belting-diva comfort zone, and she botched it whenever she
tried. Plus, worse than any other contestant I've ever seen, she just
never looked like she was having any fun up there.
The shocking thing about this season is that the three remaining
contestants honestly are the three best singers out of the lot. I
don't think that's ever happened before.
Okay, I promise that's my last AI-related post...for the moment.
