That was one of the few eps I've seen so far and I saw that guy...Simon called it, hammy and boring. If you just want to get on TV, at least be funny.
For anyone else that saw that episode - that first girl who got in...the one with the story about her dad - tell me that wasn't contrived and littered with crocadile tears.
Contestants realize that they need to sell themselves/their story in this contest now, which is cool. But they better become better actors...
