Three words sum up my excitement from last night’s American Idol: Ka. Tree. Na.
You may not recognize that name, or the surname Darrell, with all the haters (cough *Slezak!* cough) simply referring to her by her attire. But as a casual non-viewer of American Idol, it’s the Katrina Darrells and the Sanjaya Malakars that actually get me interested. I didn’t watch last night, but after I heard about Bikini Girl this morning, you bet your ass I fired up the clips online and enjoyed the hell out of the whole thing. I can’t decide what I liked most: 1) Hot girl shows up in a bikini, spins around, jumps up and down 2) Randy and Simon’s jaw-dropping, "She’s a YES for me!" 3) Paula and Kara’s equally vehement dislike for her 4) Hot girl shows up in a bikini.
Katrina may not be around long, but solely because of her, I will watch at least one more episode of American Idol in the juvenile, prurient hope that she does something as inappropriately sexy once again — and you better believe I won’t be the only one. Hey, it’s fun, silly, unpredictable, and hot. All things I like. Kudos, Bikini Girl. Can’t wait to see you again.
Who’s with me? Bikini Girl was hot, right? Anyone else like the curve ball these much-hated American Idol goofs bring to the mix?

Mike Bruno is an idiot. Please refrain from writing anymore popwatch posts. I mean really??
Bikini girl was the best audition of the night, and one of the most memorable ever! And she was good! All the haters like Slezak can go “suck it” as Tina Fey says. Every season, Slezak hates the skinny hot white girl, and its become real tiresome. Grow up, and stop judging her based on her beauty. She actually outsang Kara.
There are a billion places to see a girl in a bikini, it didn’t add anything to the show. I’m not a huge AI fan, but these kinds of attention whores make me want to watch even less.
judging on her physically- this girl is nothing special. she needs to eat a donut, she needs boobs and she’s gonna nothing in the back… her face isnt even all that… whats so special about her that Megan from I Love Money / Charm School / Rock of Love doesnt do??? wack
Why do you have to be a hater if you don’t like her? I didn’t and I don’t care enough to hate her. But like Bruno said, she’ll be gone soon enough no need to get worked up about it. And comparing her to Tina Fey is laughable. Tina has talent. Bikini Girl has … a bikini.
Isn’t the show all about who can be the biggest attention whore? Because clearly the show isn’t about singing. In this case she just made that clearly visible – in the best possible way IMHO.
Well, Bikini Girl just got her obligatory 15 minutes of testosterone-fueled fame. I can’t wait to see the seriously talented singers rip her to shreds in Hollywood. I’m sure it won’t be hard either. She’ll probably be the one in the girl group who starts some infantile cat fight over what one of the girls is wearing or something.
Really Mr. Bruno? Are you serious? She was a big ick and just caused nothing but wrecks all around her…especially when she tried to make out with the obviously gay Ryan Seacrest..she just made me ill
From what I saw she need to eat more cheeseburgers or put on more clothes. maybe both.
What an ass she had.
Seacrest kiss was the best part of the night. Yay Bikini girl
Whoooooooooore
It’s funny how all the girl bloggers hate her and the men like her. And how the girls think she “needs to eat a doughnut.” She has a killer body and all you girls know it. I’m guessing most of you are slighly or greatly plump, like most American girls.
I would rather see a beautiful woman with an ok voice prance and dance around than some of those “stalker” looking participants. It’s suppose to be entertainment of all types, I have watched this show faithfully from the start and I still find it hilarious, entertaining and at times shocking at the voters choices.
Last night was it for me.
Don’t get so upset! Its just for publicity! Remember some of the other fools you were talking about the next day in past seasons. Kudos to her for getting her 15 min. There were no doubt MANY other physically fit and attractive girls there who didn’t get theirs….! Have fun and watch the show-its ALL about entertainment and buzzzzzz.
@Corran – “She actually outsang Kara”??? You’re on the crack, right?
paul, do you make a habit of thinking with your little head?
Who cares about this chic. they had her jumping up and down… nothing moved. She could sing but not that great. Maybe Simon was attracted but i know Randy and no other black man paid attention to her skinny behind. She will be kicked off next show. I feel bad for her parents, their slutty daughter confused american idol with girls gone wild.
i didnt despise her but she did get a pass from the guys (so to speak). isnt anyone concerned about the precedent this has set? next year there will be a hundred people (and not just women) auditioning in bikinis and most if not all not ’suited’ to the apparel the way bikinis girls figure was.
no, paul, you mental giant, we are not all “plump”, we just have brains in our heads. Unlike some people on this board. Sexist dumb@ss.
i never watch idol or surivor or shows like them. but watching pretty women in little swim suit are as american as apple pie. do not be so PC, lighten up for gods sake if you want mindless viewing watch c-span
I thought she was super annoying and i was hoping that she would stink, but unfortunately she had somewhat of a decent voice. To my disliking. But it’s alright, i am sure she is going to have her ass handed to her in her reprise on the Hollywood episodes. If she came in clothing i think she could have made equally an interesting impression with her bad attitude.
if you like flat-chested, toothpick sluts who are tanner than an oompa loompa…then yeah i guess you can say she’s hot. it’s so sad that she’ll one day grace the cover of playboy magazine…no wait…playboy’s classier than that.
Bikini girl was staged!
john t., you’re classier than Randy, Simon and most of the male posters here.
Seriously, what’s with all the yodeling pretending to be singing? And trying to make out with Seacrest? That’s just whoring.
She is pretty hot if you ask me. It won’t get me to watch the show, but it will get me to watch the youtube clips of her =D
Skanks like her are a dime a dozen in LA. She’ll fit right in. I’ve seen better karaoke singers at Brass Monkey.
who the hell cares what a bunch of scraggly grey haired femnazis think. Lets have more babes in bikinis jumping around on stage. If you dont like it go watch the discovery channel. Personally I think that after the treatment Sarah Palin got from the femleft, they lost all credibility and you can keep your mouths shut… STFU……bubba said that, what say you
