That and a $1.50 still won't buy you a bus token.
The kind of music they will be singing after they get off the show says that Diana is the most viable of the bunch. None of them write their own songs so they will have songs written for them. Whoever is the most moldable and versatile is the one who will have the biggest hits. Diana is the most versatile. She doesn't have just one style of singing, BELTING. Even Aretha had breath control and versaility.
You have to be able to pull off more than just 3 minutes of wailing. This venue is geared to make people believe that singing like she does is acceptable but imagine Fantasia having to sing like that for 60 minutes. You will want to shoot her. You have to be versatile to make it. See Clay (no pun intended) for more proof. He has no style whatsoever but he has the moldable range to bring other people's songs to life.
Latoya was the only middle ground on the show and the dumbasses voted her off. Trenyce and Tamara Gray are also good examples of the middle ground of good singing and sangin'.
