First! "Seaside heights" is actually "Seaside Heights". You must capitalize the letter "H".

She obviously has Aspergers or Tourettes. People shouldn't give her such a hard time. She can't help it.

Third! She was NOT found dead by "two street pedestrians". She was found dead by, "a driver and passenger".

:-( Nooooooooooooooooooooooo. I'm sad because she leaves behind her mom and pets (cat, dog, etc.). She wanted to be a vet. Puts a human touch on it...... even if she WAS from New Jersey (bunch of sickening Jersey trash).

It amazes me how insensitive people can be. I didn't know this girl and don't watch American Idol but I hope she is resting in peace.

Out of all the crap that your forced to sit through on Americal Idol, especially during the first few episodes of the season, this girl truly made me laugh. Unlike most of the crazy idol rejects, she actually had some talent and kept her sense of humor after being booted. It's a damn shame that she lost her life. May she rest in peace and may her mother find comfort during her grief.

She/he (tranny?) said exactly what I wanted to say about that smug POS, Simon Cowell. Good for her/him.

Aww, this is too bad. Her first audition a few years back showed her as a total crazy, but when she returned last year, she had a total sense of humor about it.
