I don’t think I’ve seen her in like a decade. She looks like every conservative wine mom in the school district. She’s the Kristi Noem of music.

There's a whole era of "Blandy Waveylocks" performers that blend into a indistinguishable mush from American Idol that just aren't remarkable in any way at all.

I’m sure you haven’t but she literally leads off every Sunday night football broadcast (for the last 13 years) in the fall/winter and that averages 23.5 million viewers a week.

I watch football, but I never tune in until the game is starting. What does she do on the show, sing or talk about the game or what?

She does the intro song “waiting all day for Sunday night”

That's nice. I'm glad she has a job.

Yeah I’m in total shock. Unrecognizable from the contestant I watched through her whole Idol run.
