She came onto American Idol like a whirlwind of joy. Her little squeal of delight in Hollywood when Simon loved one of her performances remains a highlight of this season for me. That moment spoke volumes for her good-natured essence. So when Joanne Borgella's AOL interview came after her elimination, it's no surprise that she had nothing but positive things to say. So when she says she was just happy to have made the Top 24, I actually believe her. Unfortunately, nerves or illness appeared to really overwhelm Joanne so that by the time she got her first chance to impress America, she wasn't able to "bring it," as Randy would say. Oh, and for you overly sensitive types, the dialogue in the pic has to do with her comparative height to Ryan and the expression on her face, not her "plus-size."
