My Experiences at American Idol

(that is David Archuleta smiling at me I promise!)

So for anyone who watched the past season of American Idol, my gal pals and i got to be the "on-camera audience" for 5 of the shows! We went to the Mariah Carey night and we all were so excited and giddy that we got "hired" to come for the remaining episodes all the way to the finale. My experience was amazing! Michael Johns even kissed the top of my head!!! Ok a few stories from my experiences.... so my friends and I were the group of girls that stood at the stage and screramed and waved their arms to the music (which has always bothered me)...during the week that the contestants, producers, and judges got to pick the song choice, i was placed in my own row right in front of the judges, i was feeling a little awkward about where i was standing, i kept needing to move to get out of the way of the camera man and i would have to step out right into this blank place in front of Randy where you werent supposed to stand, so when the time came when i needed to move, i moved to where the man told me and he turned his camera and nailed me right in the head!! i almost fell to the ground right in front of Randy. Well i recovered quickly and tried to laugh it off, at comerrcial break I turned around and Simon was laughing at me and motioned for me to give him a hug! That made it all better,and the fact that the next week i got my friends and I, special treatment because the camera men all knew who i was and felt bad for me! So many good memories!!
