Earlier this season, Chris Medina was an outstanding participant of "American Idol." The story of her sobbing was perhaps the saddest of "American Idol" history, and created a huge amount of rumors of the series, since it launched its all-important first post-season Simon Cowell. But now it seems that "American Idol" producers have already forgotten about Chris, though his story was clearly manipulated to full effect to generate ratings. According to tweets from Chris, he has not been invited to appear on "American Idol" final next week, even as an audience member.
For those of you who do not remember hearing Chris Milwaukee, where he told the judges their terrible history of substance over form in which it was responsible for the care of his girlfriend, Juliana Ramos, since he suffered a traumatic brain injury in a 2009 car accident. Juliana even attended the hearing of Chris, and Steven Tyler cried when he was wheeled to the listening room. Spectators in the country wept and, no doubt.
Later, when Chris surprisingly did not make the top 24 since Jennifer Lopez was time to mourn, as emotionally delivered the bad news. It was not all bad news for Chris at the time, Jimmy Iovine and Interscope decided to release a single from Chris anyway. "What are the words," was a ballad written by "American Idol"-associate producer Rodney Jerkins, and inspired by Chris and Julie Real life tragic love story was rushed into iTunes before any of the top 24, even competed.
But this week, just a couple of months after all the fanfare, Chris Twitter: "I just found out that he is not the end of # AmericanIdol sad and disappointed. "When one of your Twitter followers asking why again, Chris responded," not asked. I then asked for input and I [were] said no. No strong feelings # AmericanIdol "
Chris and Julie obviously have suffered setbacks far superior to it, so I'm sure they will overcome this slight. But still, this seems rather petty, if you ask me. "American Idol" viewers may have different views on whether Chris deserved to be in the top 24, but his hearing dramatic and equally dramatic elimination were an important part of the "American Idol" story arc this season, so seems strange (and rude) that the producers did not invite you to participate in the final somehow.
