Tessie Mae Reid
Contestant #52967
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.'"
