@JG-MV "instinctual racism" come on bro that's a stretch. First of all racism is never instinctual, it is something that you learn from others and your environment. Nobody is innately racist, it's not a part of human nature. And secondly, mispronouncing someone's name in this context is very unlikely to be from a place of racism, especially if the person was being disrespectful from the jump. Also, say what you want about Simon Cowell but he treats all his guests with this same attitude no matter their race, age, gender, or whatever
Makayla Edwards No, you're bad at taking criticism. Accepting and working with critique is a skill. Deflecting and throwing a tantrum is what children do.
@@bertojr2130 She could be good. She DOES need lessons, badly, and if she can't afford them, possibly she could give lessons to herself from RUclips, but she needs lessons somehow.
Why is everyone talking about how "She wasn't that bad of a singer." That's not the point. She was extraordinarily rude and handled criticism from JUDGES in the most ass way possible
Brandon Haygood exactly and they didn’t say she was bad they just said she wasn’t really a solo singer. She was good either way but she was extremely rude and disrespectful

O God! My 9 year old and 6 year old just discovered this and said, "LOOK MOMMY! SHE HAS YOUR NAME!" God help me 😩🙅🏽🙍🏽🙈noooooo say it ain't soooooo!!!!! 🤕😖
What part of "You're not a solo singer" means "You need singing lessons"? Nobody told her she needed lessons, she came up with that herself. He was just telling her she would sound better singing with a group of people so that she would sound LESS like a flute going through a wood chipper.
carinaejag I play 3 instruments (Accordeon, clarinet and bassguitar) and had an A at school in music, but you are obviously higher qualified! Congrats!!
Ha ha ha ha!!! Have had this audition in the back of my mind for years. Tamika inspired my use of that expression (kiss my natural born black ass). Love this lady!
I love how Simon mispronounced her name a million times. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with taking voice lessons, professional singers have vocal coaches and still take lessons to improve. Constant improvement is required to be a pro singer.
The fact that she said Paula was jealous probably means she wants people to look up to her since she's rude and horrible in so many ways. I mean, who would be jealous of someone who uses "diddly squat"?
The fact that shes wearing sunglasses on her head while wearing glasses worries me
Yes... Deeply...
You are messed up it doesn't matter what she wears 🖕🏼
ybnvusofd1 It's like eating with two spoons you idiot. You and Tamika are a good couple i bet.

This was out for about 20 years ago. Its season 1.
“I am hurt, and I am angry!” I quote this everyday.
Basicaly today’s generation
@@napoleondynamite8564 This is very old though.
Same 💀💀
@@jutjubow Foreshadowing
She's hungry.
The fact that this was season one and she called Simon "that British judge" because the show was that new is enough to amuse me.
+Mskittenlover12 This looked a whole lot better than the puke in the later seasons
Its not Ta-mika, it's TA-MI-KA !!!

"Paula Abdul is just jealous."
Did Paula even say anything? 😂😂😂
There's a video of the full argument. Paula basically said that you should keep auditioning and not give up basically.
Can I have a link?
check out my profile for the full heated argument
she was sitting there like it was the middle of War World 80, she could've talked
@@greenrobot5 *twalked
She literally came in looking like a 90’s High School yearbook photo
I think this was the first season which aired in 2002 so 90’s fashion was still around a bit (if I recall correctly, as I was born 1995).
Lmaaaoooo

Well alive anyway…
Tamika Bush

@@jackchop1576 🤣 true!
@@hazelthemcwitch no alive and well lol
"Cause he don't know diddly squat."
i died
She went in on Randy 😂😂😂
What does it mean ?
She snapped 😂😂😂
The fact that Simon was still referring to her as Tam-ika after she specified that it was Tam-ee-ka had me weak😂😂😂😂😂😂
And the fact that he kept saying it over and over like “Tamica Tamica Tamica-“ SHADY 😭

Ta-mik-a
Why do they always say things like "I don't care what you think." Yes you do! Otherwise, you wouldn't be there!
They are trying to act like it doesn't bother them lol Some people just can't take criticism. Even from people who know what they are talking about.
Lol I'm one of those people who say that xDDDDD (cant help it, Imma boss ass bitch)
Makayla Edwards No, you're bad at taking criticism. Accepting and working with critique is a skill. Deflecting and throwing a tantrum is what children do.
Meadow Peace I'm sorry. Here, lemmie just use my ADHD as an excuse. Seeeee, that's why I do it.
Makayla Edwards Still an excuse and a poor one at that.
Did anyone notice that she has 2 pairs of glasses?!
Yes
The other pair look like sunglasses lol!
OMFG I only just noticed
Steve A she looks green in the video tho , shrek species confirmed
I think we all noticed that
"I don't think you're a solo singer at all and-"
"I'm sorry?"
THAT PART CRACKS ME UP SO BAD, SHE'S SUCH A BRAT 😂😂😂😂
That's my favourite part ☠ she was so mad
i think the fact that they said she needs lessons its actually a compliment. They see potential, just a little help to get there
yeah i know, she was just very rude about the whole thing and can't take any criticism
But they were rude about the criticism, so I can’t blame her
@@TrashcanTroubadour oh no doubt about it, younger me would have set the place ablaze but adult me have learned to see the silver lining.
It’s the “I’m sorry???” and her disbelief facial expression 🤣🤣💀💀
The quick dip, neck roll, lips pursed, head bob, and eye roll combination @1:46 has me in tears! 😹😂
1:33 "Kiss my natural born black ass" 😂😂😂
yy y LMAO
The fact that Randy didn't say she needs lessons im weak
He actually Said it on a longer version of the video
@@bertojr2130 She could be good. She DOES need lessons, badly, and if she can't afford them, possibly she could give lessons to herself from RUclips, but she needs lessons somehow.
@@maryfreebed9886 ofcourse she needs them so badly
"And Paula Abdul is just jealous" as she does that hilarious head spin. LMAO.
“it’s TA ME KAH”…. Simon proceeds to say “TAM uh KAH” 😂 💀
I think she's one of the funniest ones, she starts off with this sort of a choir girl composure, and then 0:22 BAM! XD
Its not Ta-mika, it's TA-MI-KA !!!
Am I the only one who died of laughter at this?XD LMBTHO
Everyone did
LOL I'm with u bro XD
Its not Ta-mika, it's TA-MI-KA !!!

That's not the point. She was extraordinarily rude and handled criticism from JUDGES in the most ass way possible
She also told a musician and music producer that he knows nothing about music
Brandon Haygood exactly and they didn’t say she was bad they just said she wasn’t really a solo singer. She was good either way but she was extremely rude and disrespectful
it's Tameeeeka, not Tamika
Bicth shut the fuck up
Brandon Haygood I totally agree. She was a hateful bitch and was way too arrogant to accept any criticism. People like her are draining to be around.
When Simon said '' Go to an audition were they lie to you '', I would have said I already am at one.
😂
Yep you'd gaslight 😂
"Paula Abdul is just jealous"
What is there to be jealous of? 😂😂😂
Her confidence and attitude! TAMIKA SLAYYED!
her face is naturally perfect for one
oh! i am hurt! i am hurt, and i am ANGRY!
This will never get old to me I die of laughter every time 😂🤣💀TAMIKAAH
DIDDLY SQUAT OMG
For the people saying she's dead, you're talking about the wrong Tamika. That was Tamika Huston. This is Tamika Bush.
I absolutely LOVE HER! (And the way she scream in 0:28 is like heaven :)
I'm tickled to death with Simon's pronunciation of her name. LMAO
Still funny after all these years 😂
The way she's grooving side to side like she's really singing good! 😂
the way she was walking though has me dying 😂
The way she went "I'm sorry??" so aggressive lmao ☠ she's funny tho
LOL Tamika, the host's comment made me laugh so much. She's so rude!.
James mincham couldn't agree more.
Its not Tamika!!!! Its TA MIKA
Some people are more hilarious without knowing it than people putting years into crafting a 5 minute stand up routine.
I can't stop laughing at her name , Simon : Tear-me-ka
Tamika : IT'S TUR-ME-KAH
I love how she corrected Simon!
Go TaMIka!
She rocks. This was too funny
Taaa-miii-kah
She's like shivering while singing, it's a mess. Shivering with a melody
I know you commented this 4 years ago, BUT TAMEEEEEEEKA IS A QUEEN
She's my absolute favorite!!
OH! I AM HURT! I AM HURT, AND I AM *ANGRY*
I almost forgot to watch this again this year
“Oh! I’m hurt, I’m hurt, and I’m angry!”

*D I D D L Y - S Q U A T*
This lives rent-free in my head😂
It kills me everytime how fast Simon cuts her singing off lmaoooo

Whoa you snuck in a full roast at the end there
Nobody told her but she does need lessons. And an attitude adjustment. 🤣
In the full version of this argument, it was really advised that she take some voice lessons
She does need lessons.
Randy: “I don’t think that you’re a solo singer at all”
Tamika (or should I say tumeekuh): “iM SoRrY??
They. are. JUDGES. What do you want to hear!?!?!?
All Tomeka’s chime in…..lol … this is still my favorite of all time.
Am I the only one that thought that she wasn't a bad singer at all?
Yes
jamie fleming She sang great, but she probably did not have the looks, so they found some lame excuses to put her down.
misanthrop1958 she sang really bad. If you cant hear that then u are lucky cos u can listen to cats moan and think its good singing.
carinaejag I play 3 instruments (Accordeon, clarinet and bassguitar) and had an A at school in music, but you are obviously higher qualified! Congrats!!
misanthrop1958 You ain't shit with your fake ass diploma. An A at School in Music? LMAO. You didn't even go to School, Boy.
I like how she says jealous.
The glasses in her hair 😂😂
🙄
Tamika there called JUDGES for a reason.
Legendary, I should say!
lmao my friends and I laugh at this vid soo much its soo hilarious!
“Oh, I’m hurt, I’m hurt and I’m angry” 😂😂😂
"Who are you to judge me??!"
'I'm literally a judge"
Ha ha ha ha!!!
Have had this audition in the back of my mind for years. Tamika inspired my use of that expression (kiss my natural born black ass). Love this lady!
Tàmica, Tàmica, Tàmica...
I love the finger movements when she corrects Simon, like directing an orchestra.
She is hurt, she is angry and she is wearing TWO pairs of glasses
Go to an audition where they lie to you. Thank you very much indeed lmao
TV GOLD!
I love how Simon mispronounced her name a million times. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with taking voice lessons, professional singers have vocal coaches and still take lessons to improve. Constant improvement is required to be a pro singer.
Flat out straight like that

"hes an ass, and he can kiss mine" Lol.
I luv heeerrrrr
DAMN STRAIGHT!!

Not a specialist a generalist

U GO GURL!
I LAUGHED SO HARD
And Paul Abdul was just jealous🤣🤣🤣🤣
Who here in 2024
I got my laugh for today.
This was hilarious .. 😅😂
She Needed The Hero She was Searching For 💯❤️
The thing is, she's not that bad of a singer. She's even above average I'd say. It's just that she has the ego of a diva without the voice of one
The fact that she said Paula was jealous probably means she wants people to look up to her since she's rude and horrible in so many ways. I mean, who would be jealous of someone who uses "diddly squat"?
