Alexis Cohen Dies in Accident
Alexis Cohen was tragically killed early Saturday morning (July 25, 2009) when she was struck by a car in a hit-and-run incident. Daniel Bark has been charged with aggravated manslaughter and drunken driving.
Alexis Cohen (a.k.a. "Glitter Girl") twice appeared on American Idol. In season 7, Alexis first appeared. Outside the audition room, Alexis ranted for a while, spewing a string of profanities combined with multiple confused cliches and mixed metaphors. In season 8, Alexis reappeared with a new attitude, promising that she would behave. After her audition, she ended up giving the judges the double-finger before leaving.
Alexis was a great Idle Idol. Even while ranting and raving, she seemed to be upbeat about the whole thing. She was working on stand-up comedy and had even posted a MySpace video just the day before her death. If you are not allergic to adult language, you can watch the Alexis Cohen MySpace video.
Thanks, Alexis, for the fun times in both seasons.
