It will be interesting to see if she will have lasting power. She did get through perhaps on the sympathy vote and does have learning difficulties. She was unable to keep up the live shows after the competition and just wonder how she will cope with the publicity which will ensue on the release of her debut album. Oh and by the way American Idol has spawned success for quite a few people Chas still enjoying success such as award winning Carrie Underwood, Kellie Pickler, Daughtry, Bucky Covington, Katherine McFee and others whose names escape me right now.
