AI certainly wouldn't be attractive (or even available) to someone who is already doing well as a recording artist or band. These are generally unknowns - and sometimes unknown for a reason: who would want to work with Tatiana, for instance? No one in their right mind would do it on spec.

I really, really don't think Jasmine belongs in this group. Besides being pitchy, her upper range is so shrill, it's sort of painful to listen to. She also doesn't seem to have much of a personality - maybe that's what Simon likes. She's obviously his fave in the group - another young one he can "mold" freely.

Anoop - good. He's a player.
Matt - good. He's a player as well. I hope he doesn't do too much of the Taylor Hicks thing though.
Megan - well, average singer, but unique style, so I can see why they wanted her. She'll be the "Brooke White" of this season.

Tatiana certain has no shortage of personality, or should I say personalities? She's a mental wreck and therefore not really suited for fame - she could have a breakdown on national TV. Besides, she blew it when she sang the same Whitney song as during Hollywood week and then tried to claim it was a totally different arrangement. That didn't sit well with ANY of the judges.
