| Subject: Well personally I don't care if she was Albert Einstein's ghost. She has no talent whatsoever . What she has is a gimmick and a lot of people obviously cannot distinguish between an actual talent and a gimmick. Can you imagine practicing the piano for 15 years or ballet or vocal lessons or even baton twirling for years and years and years and then you lose out to somebody who pours chemicals into a beaker ? Sorry folks but this pageant has become a joke.. And I regret the fact that I spent a small fortune to attend preliminaries. It certainly won't happen again. |
