While some of her fellow Idol wannabes are off playing high-profile gigs at malls and housing developments, please do note the sarcasm, Season 5 castoff Mandisa rocked the house at a South Carolina fair.
The big-voiced diva was the headliner for the Fall for Greenville festival last week. She sang covers of classics including Aretha Franklin’s ‘Respect’. She may have gotten the respect of the crowd because of that but it looks like respect is something that she and Simon Cowell will not give to each other. Ouch.
But hey, way to represent all the big and beautiful ladies out there by still working hard doing what they love.
