Idol Girls Before They Were Wor”Sheep”ed

American Idol is in full swing again, and that means a bunch of dumbasses making fools of themselves on national television. Good times, all around. But while many of the people that show up for the audition are about as talented as a nut sack, some of them truly rocked the house . . .and were a major score if you heard that singing – albeit without actual lyrics – in your bedroom (I would especially defile Ms. Clarkson.)

So to remember the few to pass through the audition gauntlet unscathed by Simon Cowel’s “bullocks-headed-ness”, we’ve put together a video compilation of all the first auditions of the notable acts to come out of the American Idol star-machine. This is the first time America ever got a glimpse of these talented individuals, before the PR machine took over and your grandmother started wearing screen-printed sweatshirts of their faces.
