Lakia Hill
Contestant #14957
Lakia sang Deborah Cox's How Did You Get Here. Her rendition was painfully off-pitch and nasal. Particularly painful was the screaming of "standing here."
Post-audition, the judges had an interesting conversation with Lakia:
Simon: Seriously, Lakia, that was a complete and utter mess.
Lakia: People say I can sing.
Randy: Really?
Lakia: Yes.
Simon: So when you hear yourself, you're hearing what? A good singer?
Lakia: Uh-huh.
Simon: Right. We're not. You have probably one of the worst voices we've had in Birmingham.
Lakia: Thank you.
That's southern charm for you, I guess.
