Comments about ‘'Idol' viewers fail to send Utahn to finals’

She has a lot of talent and gave a great performance, to bad she has the hideous tatoo.

Leave it to bigoted dnews readers to care about the tattoo. Get over yourselves.

Well, it's not just tattoo, but tattoos do turn a lot of people off. Last season it didn't help Carly Smithson either. AI is watched by mostly famale adults.

She might have impressed the judges, but her voice wasn't that great. If you listen without watching her pretty face and cute little dance move, it wasn't that great.

Sigh, Don't you think that was a pretty bigoted statement? What....do you own a tattoo parlor?

The dislike of the tattoo has nothing to do with bigotry. It's just that it's ugly. She's so cute, it's really a shame. Maybe Megan can get it off before she has a chance to go back as a wild card.

The tattoo is hideous.

I agree that she is beautiful but the tatoo ruins her physical appearance, there are to many people that tatoo's turn people right off, me included. If she was smart she would of covered it, I bet she would of made it, she does have a great voice!

I hate to agree here with most of the crowd but my first thought was, what is a pretty gal like that doing, she doesn't need the tatoos for attention, they just turned me off. There is nothing wrong with a tatoo, just in certain forums, you need to be careful. How many tatooed individuals have we ever seen in the finale? If they did have them, they hid them well.

I think she is gorgeous including her tattoos. I bet she will be brought back as a wild card. The judges loved her

Her "little dance move" is what ruined her performance for me. It was apparent to me that this girl can't dance. Her stage presence was awful. She has a good voice, but, without stage presence she wouldn't win the whole thing.

I love the tattooes and I think she sings pretty well too.

I have a tattoo myself, and I don't think they look bad. However, a female trying to be a pop star with that kind of tat all the way down her arm doesn't seem to work. It doesn't seem to match her personality or choice of clothes. Ultimately, it just clashes with the "pop" image. Maybe if she was going more for rock, or even a pop/rock mix like Pink or something. But the big tattoo paired with long blond hair and babydoll dresses sends a mixed message. People just didn't vote for her and I bet the look is part of it, since it is part of the competition!

Why would anyone want to vandalize their body (the scriptures call it a temple) like that,

while she is very beautiful, that ugly tattoo is so distractng.

I don't know how good of singer she is,

but that song she sang did nothing to show off her voice.

It's too bad there aren't pictures of those posting comments so we can all be judged.
