When I was younger I used to feel so bad for these people, but seriously who tf is encouraging them??? I would never let someone I love embarrass themselves like that even if some of them have good voices. You have to be exceptional!
Yeah and when those people say: my friends and my parents said I was good!- I was always like WTF? I get why parents would say to their child: oh u sing so good!- But letting them go on TV to embarrass themselves? Brutal 😂 and the friends must’ve had a good laugh
The mute trans man who tried to sing Whitney Houston comes to mind. Be honest…especially if they’re going to go in front of the world. Maybe he doesn’t have friends or family.
That's good. I've found that honesty is the best policy. They avoided upsetting their child by telling them they could sing. But, look now. They're 100 times more upset, and they feel bewildered, and betrayed now, as well. Because surely they must realize that everyone who's always told them they could sing, has been lying to them the whole time. I want to cry. I mean it.
I agree, I had a cousin that used to post videos of herself singing on social media and I was the only one in the family that would tell her she wasn't any good.
Some of the times I absolutely 'lost it' and couldn't stop laughing was watching Randy just crying/laughing behind the papers...and then he says so calmly 'no dog...that ain't gonna cut it'..
@melissaburton Some people are really tone deaf and think that they can sing when they can't. It's true that some were just looking for their 15 minuets of fame though, but you do realize that all the contestants for the show had to go through auditions before going in front Simon, Paula and Randy. They would only choose people that they thought would get the show ratings whether or not they could sing. I know this because I had a friend that auditioned for a really early season of the show and she said that a lot of great singers got cut before ever seeing Simon and Randy and the other contestants would boo the judges when that happened. The Tone deaf singers were only chosen because they knew it would make great T.V. content at the time.
@@gokuhawks14 I know the words to many, many songs. I only have to hear a song a couple of times and I know the words. But, the sound that leaves my mouth would not be considered 'singing' by ANYONE! I love music and I enjoy doing whatever it is that I do. But, it is absolutely NOT singing. I would like to say that I sound better than some of these.

@@Blueness1230absolutely, often people just lie to them, so that they don't hurt their feelings, or they're saying something like you've got a unique voice or a rare voice or you sound so different, if their voice sounded not only bad, but as strange as these contestants are sounding. Or they're coming up with other euphemisms. But no one outright tells them that they can't sing. But there's also friends and relatives, mostly parents, who are tone deaf themselves and actually think, their kid has some talent.
@@lenom1289yes, either no one ever told them no (also because their relatives and friends were afraid of their reactions), or they were told no, but had the same reactions as in this video and were in outright disbelief, when their friends and relatives told them, they couldn't sing.
😢 it's sad how delusional some of these people are. When they say "my family says I can sing like xyz..." It's not good to lie to your family to make them feel better, because then they end up embarrassing themselves like this.
The rapper with the glasses, Christopher Scott Noll, ended up being an actor. He's actually Chris Wylde and has a pretty long IMDB. I guess he really was going places!
@Destiny Brian McKnight disowned his black kids and married a white woman, and now calls her children his children. He also named his newborn biracial child Brian Jr. even tho there’s already a firstborn (and black) Brian Jr. but he’s disowned him. Oh, he also exposed his black daughter’s rape on Instagram. In fact he suggested she wanted it. It happened when she was a child! He’s a colorist and pure effin’ evil! There’s videos about it on YT, watch em if u wanna be horrified
My husband and I quit watching AI after they stopped filming the ones that were hilarious. It's not entertaining anymore. They only show the ones going to the next round. Plus they added the golden buzzer, so now we miss out on more episodes of the ones we like. It was fun to see how they improved from week to week. I gotta say that after viewing this video, Simon's opinion doesn't change. Everyone of these contestants were THE WORST HE HAS EVER HEARD!
I blame the parents and friends, because they’re filling the heads of these people that they have these amazing voices and they sound absolutely frightening and it’s very embarrassing for them to go on live tv with the assumption that they will have a life of fame in music. Actually, it’s evil to do that to someone that’s tone deaf.
Paula was one of the only judges on any of these shows who actually had class, and treated people like they were actual people rather than just contestants.
@@constantinosbrakus5907 yeah I admit she was a little bit rude. What’s funny is that Simon was the most respectful out of both Randy and Paula that time.
Dude shut up lol imagine dealing with a consistent influx of trolls and people who are mentally ill eventually you would become desensitized and just be bluntly honest sometimes people need a reality check get over it
That's the problem. These contestants were taught their entire lives that their every bowel movement deserved bronzing. Simon was there to bring them back down to earth. Paula wasn't doing them any favors by acting the benevolent mom role.
Not enough for letting him and his ears getting tortured for a few weeks straight each summer...hopefully, theere are no remaining consequences to being objected to such an atrocious sound a hundred times a day
The original judges were DIABOLICAL sometimes. We don’t get TV like this anymore. Can you imagine the death threats Simon would get from losers online who take everything so seriously?
I totally could not be a judge on this show. Because the amount of people who truly believe they can sing is ridiculous!!! If your friend cant sing, PLEASE tell them the truth!!!! The importance of telling the truth has never been clearer!!
Honestly that first girl sounds like she could be really good actually with a few years of singing lessons and a good vocal coach, she kept going back and forth between singing on and off key.. but i could hear the potential when she went on key!! Like she almost nailed 0:55 😭
I take singing lessons since some years. And yes, what you want to hear from yourself, and what you hear in your head is awful different from what you hear when you record yourself and listen a bit critically. Singing is a really difficult thing to do.
I had a coworker that auditioned in 2008. She honestly was very good and a very sweet girl. I think she did get through but didn’t make it that far in the competition.
I took voice in college.. you had to audition to get in the class, if you could sing.. “that was nice thank you.” If not, “you can’t sing, next please.” All that mattered was ability.
The thing is, some of these people probably actually have some potential especially if they end up taking voice lessons/find their specific style. But as entertaining as it is, a lot of people have come out to talk about how curated this show is especially when it comes to the audition process.
I've literally been dealing with someone exactly like this as a church singer. They let the guy go up and sing, he sounds like glass, chalk and bolts, they applaud him and now the guy thinks he is good enough to be a worship leader singer, and nobody is wanting him to. The dude has no formal musical training and says hes too good for lessons.
I have a career as a professional music critic. It's AWESOME when we come across terrific auditions. Despite what it looks like, the hardest part of the job is telling people they don't make the cut.

Anytime I have doubts about my own singing ability, I can always come here and remind myself there are people who are WAY, WAY worse than me! (and also completely out of touch with reality) 🤣
People have to remember that American Idol is a reality show and reality shows are heavily scripted. There is a panel of judges that the contestants see before they reach the main judges and the job of the first set of judges is to see who will make the show interesting and boost the ratings whether they are good singers or bad singers.
The fact that they're selective on who they allow through to actually audition in front of the judges doesn't really make the show scripted or fake since we don't even see 99% of the contestants anyways. Some of them may be acting and playing it up for the camera to get attention, but it's not like the producers have any control over that.
Some of them might be paid actors, some of them might be just trolls, who are doing it just to get their 15 minutes of fame, without getting paid by anyone.
Going to school the next day and everybody talking about these were truly some good times 😂😂😂 Not everyone watched the actual competition but EVERYBODY caught the bad auditions.
Leandra was singing to the stadium. And Simon was lying when he said Fookling was the one of the worst singers he's ever heard. Most of us who watch the show and these clips can vouch for that.

There is a panel of judges that the contestants see before they reach the main judges and the job of the first set of judges is to see who will make the show interesting and boost the ratings whether they are good singers or bad singers.
How very true
The fact that they're selective on who they allow through to actually audition in front of the judges doesn't really make the show scripted or fake since we don't even see 99% of the contestants anyways. Some of them may be acting and playing it up for the camera to get attention, but it's not like the producers have any control over that.
I thought they had live auditions? No panel of judges before reaching the main judges. The show just picks which contestants to air on TV.
The way that one dude was rejected and he was still so kind is heartwarming. I think he’s the 3rd audition in the video
and to be frank with a few singing lessons he really had potential
If you’re referring to Anthony you may want to have your hearing checked. It was frightening.
He didn't sound bad to me . I thought he sounded OK just needed training
"I am strooonnng!" *SOBS*
Same, bro, same.
We all need a friend brave enough to tell us we stink at something
That Star Spangled Banner almost made me want to leave the country!
was that the straw that broke the camel's back?
😂😂😂😂😂
OMW😂
😂😂😂😂😂
LMFAO
There's no way that a lot of these weren't paid actors.
Mary Roach is an actor.
That Christopher kid in the glasses just did this to add to his reel… he IS an actor
They’re not, just lied to by the judges before to be made a mockery to the whole world
Some of them might be paid actors, some of them might be just trolls, who are doing it just to get their 15 minutes of fame, without getting paid by anyone.
I hate to tell everyone this, but what you see is what you get.
Its almost sad that they cant hear themselves...its scary because they are serious 😂
Going to school the next day and everybody talking about these were truly some good times 😂😂😂 Not everyone watched the actual competition but EVERYBODY caught the bad auditions.
What in the world???? I nodded off to sleep and jumped up to skreeching and hollering. Dang!! 😂😂😂
This is when American Idol was fun to watch lmaooo these people could not be serious!
Rapper with the glasses did just fine 😂😂😂😂😂
Leandra was singing to the stadium. And Simon was lying when he said Fookling was the one of the worst singers he's ever heard. Most of us who watch the show and these clips can vouch for that.
“I would check my hearing if I were you“ 😂😂😂
Lol
“You are like a one man band”
“oh thank you”
“no that was not a compliment”
“ *oh* “
Simon's face is priceless
“The bombs bursting in air”was the only in tune part… was off key the rest of the time and shakey 😂😂😂😂 and then the amazingly dreadful 😂
😂families stop telling your relative they can sing😅😅
Be straight up lying lol I would tell them YOU CANT SING !!
This is when American idol was so funny 😂😂😂😂
I can’t get past the “banner yet way” part 🤣🤣
I think the first audition knew you can’t stop someone singing the national anthem 😅😅😅😅 she went alllll out!!! 😂
That poor girl singing the anthem like she was truly dounding good 😂😂
Poor us who had to listen to it. Wtf?
Wrong lyrics and all 🤪
I feel like the first girl doesn’t have a bad voice I just think she needs a lil voice training but i could see her singing in church for sure 😊
She’s just doing it and the country justice 🤷🏻♀️
She never came close to the correct pitch, not a one time!
