Subject: I'm confused why you would assume that... she won both preliminaries, not just talent. She DID compete in Swimsuit on Finals night, and despite winning the preliminary, that wasn't enough to get her into the Top 10. Why is the idea that judges have subjective tastes so impossible to accept? Author: Is there a delusion that this is all 100% objective?

Unfortunately, due to the finals format, the second group of judges never got to see her talent as she was eliminated before." on 15:27:44 04/11/26 Sat [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

Subject Author Date Oh, I'm confused. When the poster said Iowa, I automatically thought about Diana Reed, the baton twirler I have no idea how that double preliminary winner did not advance. However, some people on the board were saying at the time they had no idea how she won 2 preliminaries. I have no opinion, as I was not there.
