Contestant #11464
The two-member team that auditioned both wore #11464. They had made their own GWAR outfits from duct tape.
The lead GWAR singer is shown singing the mandatory Joy to the World (Jeremiah Was a Bullfrog). He sings "And he always has some mighty fine wine," accompanied by a "Yeah!" from the background GWAR singer. Later, we see him sing the line "Joy to the world!" with a fist in the air, followed by "Line!?".

Irada entered the audition with a long, buttoned sweater and a bright red flower in her hair. As she started to "sing" Unbreak My Heart, she unbuttoned the sweater so it was fully open in the front. Yes, she had another shirt on underneath.
Fully unimpressed, Randy had to find out what else she was capable of. Irada started singing Chain of Fools as she removed the sweater and let it drop to the floor. She then attempted to remove the flower and let her hair down, but the flower got stuck, and she was forced to let the flower hang there, upside down, in her hair. She also gave a couple half-gyrations.
Irada then transitioned into several different songs, ending with How Do I Live Without You? Simon finally stopped her and told her that everything about the audition was horriffic. Irada snatched up her sweater and other items and rushed out without a word.

James came out and rapped for a short while. Unimpressed, the judges asked him to sing something.
James then proceeded to butcher Lean on Me. Simon responded, "That's why he rapped."
James may have been rapping for 10 years, but he won't be doing it in Hollywood on American Idol.
James is later spotted in the Joy to the World (Jeremiah Was a Bullfrog) montage, where he switches from the proper chorus to the Christmas song "Joy to the World."

Alison sang Everybody's Working for the Weekend in an operatic fashion.
The highlight of the audition was Alison pointing at the judges and clearly articulating the line "You want a piece of my heart?"
Simon said that "there is a real lack of understanding here today."

A woman in a pink shirt sang M-I-C-K-E-Y in a loud, horrible voice. She even held up a pretend microphone to her mouth. Good times.

Paula wore some interesting clothes. The reason is that everyone calls her a "fashion genius."
In addition to the eye-catching clothes, she also had some prominent braces with pink and green rubber bands that Simon just had to talk about. He said things like "You have so much metal in your mouth," "that's like a bridge," and "How did she get through the metal detector? It must have gone crazy!"
Paula is a huge Paula Abdul fan. Apparently, she likes to draw life-size pictures of Paula Abdul.

Tessie Mae attempted to sing Ain't No Mountain High Enough for the judges, but the sound was horrendous, despite her claim that she sounds exactly like Avril Lavigne. Tessie Mae's hair was of interest, with two long, bleach-blonde braids falling down on either side of her face.
Why does Tessie Mae think she should advance to the next round? In her words: "I think I should be a pop star because I could be like the next big famous person." Grammatically, this wasn't the best choice of words. I'm not sure if she was using "big" to describe the famousness or the person. Tessie's outfit included a black shirt and too-tight, bright pink pants that showed off her figure. How can you describe her figure like in those pants? You can't — but Simon's could: "You know when you buy a sack and you try to stuff it full of potatoes and you just keep pushing and pushing . . . It's like 'No — I can get another potato in there, hang on.'"
