I'm with you on the attractiveness, though. I don't think either one are in the Kelly Clarkson or Carrie Underwood league when it comes to that.

Oh man, I would go that far. I think she's the best vocalist the competition has ever seen, at least as far as how they perform on the show.

I was watching WGN the other day and their Idol rewind show, and the first season was on. I was blown away at how much better Kelly Clarkson is now than she was then. She rightfully won that season, but oh my, her performances were good but not even in the same world as Melinda when she was on Idol.
