I was watching the XFactor USA.
Question: do contestants or friends/families of contestants get anything extra if they cry?
The amount of crying in these talent shows is verging on ridiculous.
It amazes me that some people have actually made it through life, as far as they have.
And then of course there are the sob stories. Lets not forget: the main reason these people are on the talent shows is because they want to be famous/rich and crave the celebrity lifestyle. In a nutshell, that's what this show is about - greed, wealth and fame. Nothing more, nothing less.
