Her voice was weak. But it wasn’t bad. Kara has a gorgeous full voice. Simon and Randy were idiots to say different!

She’s a 5 on a scale of 1-10. She only got through because she was half naked. Everyone knows that.

Katrina may be a Model but she is no “Singer” the only reason she got her “Golden Ticket” was for Entertainment Value much like Antonella Barba. God hopefully American Idol will screen the Contestants better this year. Katrina Darrell will not pass any rounds of American Idol with any Singing Talent. Believe me American Idol always needs a couple of pretty Non-Singing Models so the audience (and Judges) can OOGLE their goods. I hope they add a couple of Colorful Eccentrics to the list as well. Thank you American Idol go out with a bang. Lol.

it was kind of dumb how Kara said she was bad simply because she couldn’t match up to Kara’s level. i think Kara thought that the guys only said yes cause of her body and didnt like that idea. all Kara’s argument was was ‘you don’t have the swing like i do and im an album recording person and you arent’. pshhh

Katrina Darrell the American Idol Season 8 Bikini Girl is such a hottie..but her voice sucks..
On January 14th 2009, Kristine wrote:
She sucked. She’s very pretty and has a nice body, but she plain sucked. She kept going off tune, and had no rhythm like Kara said. There were times where she was in tune, but then she slips off tune. She won’t make it, and I hope she doesn’t because she is a bad example to women using the excuse of how her body will get her places.

Bikini Girl only got through because of Simon and Randy. Simon said yes as soon as she walked in the room. Kara has a way better voice, and by the way is way better looking than Bikini Girl. I wish they would show Kara in a bikini. And YES WE ALL KNOW SEACREST IS GAY!!!!!!!

Kara looked dumb for trying to out-sing her. American Idol always lets in a few people who can’t sing, but are “entertaining” in other ways. It doesn’t mean they’ll actually give Bikini Girl a chance to be a finalist!

Haha, look at all the fat, ugly females in here, acting jealous. The young lady has a beautiful voice (not the best I’ve ever heard, but great nonetheless), a bold personality, and absolutely gorgeous looks. What’s not to like? The fact that she can sing better than 98% of the population, is beautiful and daring? Jealous fatties not liking her is the conclusion.

There are all kinds of swim suits. There are Brigitte Bardot suits, exotic suits, invisible suits, paint on suits, tan thru suits, one piece suits, two piece suits just to name a few. We now have Katrina Darrell defining “cheap suit” and she strutted her cheap stuff well! She needs to be reminded this show is a singing competition.

Most of the people are girls…do i smell jealousy?
At least she has something going for her, unlike some people *looks in comment box*
P.S. Learn to spell. She’s gorgeous and she can sing pretty good, considering how hard that song can be. She also has a great personality.

Bikini girl is NOT that hot. Decent bum, that’s about it. Face is definitely subpar.
Kara’s demonstration was exponentially better and I do not blame her at all for calling Katrina out. It wasn’t catty, it wasn’t jealousy, she was seeing past the lack of boobs & talent. She even complimented the girl before making her *honest* criticism.
But of course Katrina had to be b*tchy back & I don’t blame Kara for anything she said that point forward.
The girl only got thru bc of the bikini and she knows it. She just wanted attention, I doubt she really aspires to be a singer. There are plenty of people out there who would want the opportunity wayyyy more.
I’m sure she won’t last that long in the show, so I’m not worried about it. Maybe she will take Kara’s advice & come naked next time, at least it’d make for better ratings.
BTW, I’m prettier than bikini girl.. (no flaming kthx). So does that mean I should try out in some lingerie or something for a free trip to Hollywood? Bah, I wouldn’t wanna be branded as a bimbo. Pass!

bikini girl- she may be hot, but she still SUCKS!
anyways kara is hotter….and is VERY talented…with multi-million dollar hits to prove it!…Bikini-girl on the other hand will be known as just that (bikin girl) for a couple of months and that will be it for her.

The girl needs to show some class. She has a decent voice, but took a blind leap by showing up in a bikini. Now she will face a lot of critcism because of how she presents herself, instead of using her voice (it is a singing competition ya know) like the rest of the contestants. Someone who has to stutt their stuff like that really leaves little to the imagination and sets her self up for a lot of being used for her looks/body. She set herself up for a short stay in Hollywood.

Take a look at most of the comments on this page. Most are posted by females with negative feedback. Just like Kara, it is obvious that they are jealous of her. Her voice is actually quite good and with help she will improve. Simon doesn’t send people to hollywood if he knows they wont make it.

Kara was right about her not having the chops to sing that song. She had a nasally voice that would have been better suited to a country song. Her voice was mediocre at best. She had a great ass, but no tits whatsoever and her face was so-so. She did get by purely on her looks. Had she been in regular clothes, Simon would have torn her apart. She won’t make it to the finals. And whoever said she had a good personality is an idiot. She was a little bitch and a MAJOR diva.

You have no way of knowing what any of these girls look like; so you f***ers can’t say that we’re just jealous because the girl has a nice body. The point is, had she been in say blue jeans and a t-shirt, she would not have made it to Hollywood. Her voice wasn’t terrible, but it wasn’t great either. And she was so flat when she tried to show up Kara. And her personality was terrible, Girlsarejealous.

To all of you who think Kara was Grammy nominated for her singing, you’re wrong, It was her song writing, not singing

Most girls are just hating on her. HATERS! lol. anyways her voice was alright. I’ve seen worse make it through. I wouldn’t be surprised if she won. Exactly what I expect from America haha.

Okay, I have never seen a girl (KARA) get soooo insecure and jealous over another girl! her lines, “hold on a minute, bitch” , “we know u as top and bottom”, “next time come naked”.. i mean come on!! what a jealous bitch!!! HAHAHAHA
sure her voice is nice, but still, she didn’t have to stoop down that low and get personal. talk about alpha female syndrome!
