I did not watch the competition last night. But my friend told me the girl who won grew up in Walnut Creek, CA which is the next town over from where I live. So I googled it.
I thought she was not very pretty either and my friend told me she won because of her talent. REALLY?? Before watching the video of her talent segment I said - she won singing Happy sitting on the stage playing with a red cup?? I've never seen Pitch Perfect either. So then I watched the video. Sure her voice is nice, but I couldn't even hear the cup. The point of the cup is to hear the claps and taps of the cup. Like on Anna Kendrick's song...........Cups. You hear them!
Yeah, I thought her talent was a bit lacking. I think it's rigged so New York wins!
