After such a promising start on the X Factor, WTF happened to this talented young woman. I thought she won a record deal and was supposed to record and release an album. What happened to her??????? | |

Because no one cares about these shows anymore, they HAVE outlasted their welcomes by over a decade, its done, Idol, all of them, the winners, runner ups, talent etc...its not even relevant anymore, people are just bored stiff with this karoake stuff.

They take too long to record, so most are forgotton, sadly. You know how the public is, we want it yesterday. Seems like the CD was suppose to come out last year, but never did. I do remember her. She did a commercial for a Beats mini speaker for Verizon. On October 4, 2013, Amaro made her broadway musical debut on "You're Never Alone". Oh I see the Album was shelved after the single did not sell well: http://www.mjsbigblog.com...witter.htm [Edited 4/1/14 17:10pm] Just Music-No Categories-Enjoy It! | |

out of all the singles they pushed for her I really enjoyed Love Me Now. I think it could have been bigger if they actually took the time to push it. | |

Seems like you're right because beside Idol I've never heard an album from the other show's winners. Tesanne Chin being the only exception, I've been listening to her reggae stuff for over 6 years. | |

Lol, I can't buy the fact that these guys who sing their heart every week on the show THINK they're going to be successful and have a nice career, labels will ruin them upside down, they'll force them to do pop music instead of their favorite music (most of black women who sing in these competitions will fit perfectly in the R&B scene).. It just sucks, you're so controled and you can't say shit because if you don't do what they want you to do they'll drop you out and unsign the contract... | |

Very few grow, in some cases the losers or should i say those who dont get far because they don't have the "look" america wants. With American Idol the rule was if you were in the Top 8 they own you, even if you dont get past 8 you cant do what you want, this is what happend to Katharine Mcphee when she lost to the Jay Leno looking lounge singer who now sings at block parties. Her first album she was molded into a sex kitten, something she had no desire to be, she could sing, but she didnt win because people thought she was stuck up, which again shows america shouldnt vote on shit, most of the time they get it wrong. Then after the album sold about 420,000 (today that would be a dream for most on that show) she got dropped which was the best thing that ever happend to her, because her second album was on Verve and was stuff she should be doing, plus she has alot of respect from some "singers" which is why you still see her.
I cant even begin to name anyone on any of these shows, all i know is its Karoake, almost no one is growing on these shows, look at Glee, people eat that shit up, but as Dave Grohl of the Foo Fighters said when he refused to license to them, "Fuck you why do i have to let you sing my stuff".

I watched the first season of X Factor then wrote it off when Rachel Crow got voted off in favor of some obviously less talented dude. I believed the reason is what you said, she was a bit too chubby thus she lacked "the look". I guess the shows are all about the shows and not the singers. | |
