The contestant most talked about by AI fans I've noticed is: Kristy Lee Cook. The one who sounded like Carrie Underwood. I thought she was great. Some people think she's even better than Carrie, but personally, I'll have to reserve my judgement until later on the series. Also other contestants talked about a lot are Kady Malloy, the aussie guy- Michael Johns, Brooke White. Let's not forget Renaldo!
