American Idol

An American "reality" show in which generally untalented nobodies compete in a large scale karaoke contest where they are urged to express themselves as individuals, yet are not accepted or praised until they look, act, think, and sing exactly as a generic Top 40 Pop singer, where the grand prize is a record deal with Simon Cowell's record label; ultimately creating a retail failure, as the "artist" is doing little else but singing songs other people wrote for them as they write no words nor play any instruments of their own, all of which is eventually blamed on Mp3 pirating for poor CD sales.

"American Idol is complete garbage."

"All of these people on American Idol are just singing karaoke."

"Who's going to be the next American Idol? Who cares. They're not musicians either way."
