OK, if Mandisa does "Fat Bottom Girls" she will forever be my hero & I will vote for her 100 times. Seriously.

Omigod, that would rock, "We make the rockin world go round!"

Bye Mandisa! At least Jesus voted for you.

Oops, I should've read along further, I guess she won't be singing "Fat Bottom Girls" after all. After what Diss informed us of, well then good.

Hey, Mandissa, Jesus loves gays!

Just a few things, however:

1. Why do the judges blast singers covering well-known pop artists for "running the risk of comparison", yet it's perfectly OK for Pickle to sing "Fancy" exactly like Reba. Not as good as Reba, but she didn't "make the song her own" or anything even close.

Here's my theory on this one, because she is pretty in the classic "all American" blonde, skinny sense and that creates a bias. Unfortunately the judges aren't self-aware enough to overcome it, especially Simon. He's very biased when he finds a girl attractive. He loves the thin, sexy black women especially. Is it just me that's noticed this? He also has a pathological prejudice against overweight people.
