People cry for all different reasons....... joy being one of them. I too feel is the best Idol has ever produced. Wish she has won - love her humbleness (is that a word?)
i don't watch american idol, only once in a while and i only saw melinda on you tube. what a great, great, great singer and person she is, just like paula, she makes me cry.. melinda, you got a fan for life in me and i pray and wish you all the best and success in life. i hope to meet you someday too. god bless!!!!
She is adorable. She makes me smile just listening to her and seeing HER smile. Who can NOT love his woman? The heartless and deaf, that's who. 100% should have won. Jordin is good, but DAMN, not up to par with this stunner. Love you Melinda.
LOL I love love LOVE the last part of the video. "Good news, cause that dress is such a pain right?" "Uhyess" And the look she gives when she says it. hehe
The discussion of looks,race,stage presence and personality is secondary to that voice,melody and rhythm sense and genuine artistic emotion. Even if you don't like the looks of her,it's about the music,not the looks. Imagine an LP with that voice and the right tracks and arrangements and if you say that wouldn't be acceptable,then you don't know jack shit about singing and music.
it would be awesome to have an american idol all-stars and brought back best of the best from season 1-10.... that would be awesome for them to have a shot at actually winning the show... but that's very unlikely.. XD..
Good for her! And she's such a lady, it's nice to see someone so talented who remembers their manners. (This is coming from someone with punk roots, but I still think it's in bad taste to petition for approval, (the point of these shows) and then be all attitude when it doesn't go their way). Also many of the runners up on these shows do get contracts and careers out of their auditions and performances, so it's a win all around, even if they aren't the 'big winner'.
Race had nothing to do with she lost (and i'm black) The theory is that Idol wanted a yound winner this particular year to appeal to the younger crowd and that they saw Melinda as too much of a professional
You're inaccurate. Just about no singer is "perfect." Impeccable - she is. She doesn't have "tone issues" or really any issues. There are some people who one could consider stronger singers but if you're heard her semi-recently (such as the performance on Ellen) than you'd know that great isn't even STRONG ENOUGH of a word to describe her.
@sherwoob1 Right! It's not always about that! I'm black btw and I totally agree with u! On the other hand, they were being racist against an Italian guy this year but nobody complained about that!! LOL
@BlindTruths If diana ross is seen as an international sex symbol with no neck, then i say let her be all head and shoulders. it's sad but i think her awkwardly-put-togetherness is the reason why she didnt win. now if she were a size2 or smaller america would have made an exception
But she's an oldy oldy realy oldy....and jordin is fresh meat for them...so what do you think who's voting....They say its the people at home BUT BELIEVE ME From the last 4 standing the already decided who would be the winner:) ....Tell me if i,m wrong...Greetings from the netherlands:D
Melinda was the best of season 6 - blake shouldnt have been in the top 2 it should have been jordin.She is a 10000000000 times better than blake for sure
Do we have a politics forum here? cos Gordon Brown has ruined this country for the next two generations. Apart from that this cool lady is tops, good luck for the future, my best wishes.
She was one of the BEST contestants ever!

I think throughout American Idol, since her audition, she came a long way with her confidence level. Go Melinda. Your awesome.
Melinda is an amazing talent. We will be hearing from her for a long time to come! God Bless you Melinda!!
many years have past, im still in tears because Melinda didn't won :'(
She was such a great singer!
She's the best of the bests!!!
Aw, she's so sweet.
Ohhhh, Paula! LOL! Loved her on this show - so emotional, so unpredictable, so ditzy.
aww I love this!:D SAULA4EVER!!:) lol I love the part at the end when Simon thinks Paula is going to hit him!
Still the best, after all these years!
She is adorable. She makes me smile just listening to her and seeing HER smile. Who can NOT love his woman? The heartless and deaf, that's who. 100% should have won. Jordin is good, but DAMN, not up to par with this stunner. Love you Melinda.
Gosh i wish she won too
Melinda sings like a pro. What a voice and so smooth a performer. I think she should`ve won!
doolittle should win. she rocks
Leave Paula alone! Malinda is amazing and so is Paula
I don't know how much looks has to do with winning this show but all I know is this girl can sing.
the force is strong within this one...
omg Paula break my HEART why don't you!
What happened to this woman, she's an unbelievable singer!
thank you!
Melinda's got this thing wrapped up. Your next American idol.
LOL I love love LOVE the last part of the video. "Good news, cause that dress is such a pain right?"
"Uhyess" And the look she gives when she says it. hehe
BAHAHA
Ohhhhhhh Paula -- how right Kathy Griffin is about you......
@LitZena I will be going to see her in concert March 19th in San Luis Obispo, CA. Can't wait!!!! :)
good on you girl!!!

yeah
LOL Paula you hot mess
What that heellll is going on with Puala.... :D :D :D hi.hi.
Can she talk to animals(her last name's Doolittle)
Paula, Randy and Steven Tyler.
Are you referring to just the judges or both Melinda and the judges?
LMAO!!!!!!!!!
hehe, drunk paula.
Melinda was the best Idol ever had.
I think that was the daddy's little girl look.
lol!
@odessafile75 totally agree..¡
i was talking about the singer
melinda doolittle is the real winner
wow i didn't know people cry cuz other people r great
haha its at the very end! look closely and you'll see simon like jump!:)
Race had nothing to do with she lost (and i'm black)
The theory is that Idol wanted a yound winner this particular year to appeal to the younger crowd and that they saw Melinda as too much of a professional
i think she sang to "home".
She should have won.
She looks like Mark Henry.

how far did she make it in the competition?
I am just glad paula is gone from the judges panel!
What song was this?
What season is this?
she should have
As much as I love love loooooooooooooove Melinda Doolittle, I just prefer Kimberley Locke's version.
lol? Which part is that??¿¿????
@BruiserKnux lolololololol
@BlindTruths If diana ross is seen as an international sex symbol with no neck, then i say let her be all head and shoulders. it's sad but i think her awkwardly-put-togetherness is the reason why she didnt win. now if she were a size2 or smaller america would have made an exception

weezie?!
@BruiserKnux HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
And lets remember, Jordin is half black
Melinda was the best of season 6 - blake shouldnt have been in the top 2 it should have been jordin.She is a 10000000000 times better than blake for sure
Paula should lay off the sauce
Wow, was that really necessary to say?
No it doesn't - this wasn't perfect but she has impeccable technique so you're just ignorant and base your opinions off of looks.
ahhahaah
@irondaddymac wow u r crazy
that dress is the bomb i'd where it and I'm a dude
Do we have a politics forum here? cos Gordon Brown has ruined this country for the next two generations. Apart from that this cool lady is tops, good luck for the future, my best wishes.
is she stoned
i totally agree. 100000000 times better than that blake guy.....
Paula is lesbian? hahaha
