1. No. They have to know they suck. |
|
You mean like that weirdo last night with the fans and his original song? Or how about the girl who thought she sounded exactly like Mariah Carey? No, I don't feel bad for laughing, but I do feel bad for wasting my time watching.

because those folks have the guts to do what the rest of us are too chicken to even try. I haven't watched it recently.
It also reminds me of when a friend of mine was laughing at guys who were dancing in a club. The two of us were standing in a corner like pathetic losers and he was cutting apart guys who were out on the floor doing no harm to anyone. I felt pretty shitty, especially when some of the guys on the floor were getting positive attention from the women.

If they've got the "whatever" to get up there, knowing they suck, I've got the lack of class to laugh at them.

9. If I want to watch Karaoke I'll go to a bar |
|
the day they do a talent show where the singers write their own songs, perhaps performing them on their own instruments - then I'll have respect for that show!

8. I find the reject segments to be pretty mean-spirited.... |
|
but it's not like they didn't stand in line for many, many hours knowing full-well that they very likely would be ridiculed.
But I don't watch the show closely enough to really laugh at anyone... I'll hear it while I'm in the kitchen and think "who told that person they could sing?"
