I think the panel of judges on this show has probably ruined some lives by their cruel criticisms of some of the contestants. I did catch a clip of a girl from the south who sang Wagon Wheel (bob dylan's song later expanded by Old Crow medicine wheel) and they gave her nothing but praise ... and a ticket to hollywood....i wish her luck. Vanessa Wolfe....another talent she has is jumping off of bridges (if that can be called a talent?)
