Not the next American Idol

In the wee hours of the morning, Tarisa and her American Idol wrist band arrived at the stadium with the other individuals who were preparing to audition. She said there were 1000's of people there.

She had to get into a line for her group in preparation for the audition. There was a crowd song that had to be sung and then she would move on to the individual auditions.

With her is Jeremy, he was auditioning also. He auditioned 2 years ago and didn't make it. So he wanted to try again this year. Like Tarisa, he braved the concrete, port-a-potties, and lack of subsistence for hours to get his chance at stardom.

Unfortunately, neither one of them made it pass round one. But true to form, Tarisa was not upset.

She merely wanted the opportunity to show her talent. Although she was not selected, she is still the Williamson Family American Idol.
