I hadn't seen this video until just now.

Because I've been lying in a coma in a cave in Chechnya since February.

The entire thing seems highly "sketch" to me, which is American slang for "suspicious" - or, in this particular case, "staged." I thought I heard somewhere recently that all of the American Idol was pre-planned - I wouldn't be surprised if this were similar. I mean, who let this woman into the competition anyway? Isn't this supposed to be a young person's thing? It's a little too didactic for me.


I mean, why not just go to a music school ? there's lots of talent there...

Well, the NYPost agrees with me, for what that's worth:
