Hi Ethel. Press isn't allowed inside the venue so, unfortunately, we don't have any information on the subsequent audition rounds. But we'll be watching the audition episodes with you later to see who made it through!

how did the auditions go yesterday for the 2nd round? Did anyone not go through that was super talented and the less than talented go through for laughs? What kind of song should one sing to prove they have a strong voice? Some were told that who were belting the song? What's wrong with that picture?

I was there yesterday and the judges said some very hateful things to the contestants. One judge even said they were tired and wanted to go home so why didn't the contestants go home too?

The auditions were a joke really. I watchd over 200 people (some VERY talented) auition and the only ones making it through were the ones who were very bad. The judgeswere even laughing at some of them but put them right on through. It's sad really that they build these people up (the ones that can't sing), putting them through when no one else is getting through, making them think they they are super talented. Only to tear them down and make fun of them in the actual TV auditions! It was a waste of time for those who have real talent....they were just looking for good tv ratings.

Thanks for taking all the parking spaces in the state garages, you bunch of talent-less wastes-of-a-life. Why don't you get an education, get a job, and go make some money? Oh wait, it requires much less work to sing someone elses songs.
