clauderainsrm There are posts about a second place finisher... and then there are posts about a second place finisher who I completely lost sight of the fact that she had joined the 100 Week Club several weeks ago!!
She ended up only a couple weeks behind banana_galaxy! (Which is funny since they are #44 and #45 in the club respectively) Which is pretty impressive when you consider that K made her debut in Season 9.
Given that there are over a 1,000 contestants who have participated in Idol over there years, being 1 of the 46 people t get to 100 Weeks is a pretty big deal. Congratulations!!
Of course, this isn't the first time she's been in a finale, or come in second - but the other time was Survivor... which was a different creature.
Some people might want to forget that special event. But I definitely don't. I'd go as far as saying that Survivor was what put her work on the map for a lot of people. There weren't many competitors, and she was there until the end. Which gave everyone more of a spotlight than would normally happen.To me, she was always someone who lasted a decent amount of time every time she played, but IMO, there was never a lot of buzz. It was like everyone had just collectively agreed "Yep, we all like her." and didn't really talk about it. :)
I'm glad that people are finally talking about her! (and her work - both are noteworthy!!) It's always nice to see someone that you've been enjoying finally start getting the attention they deserve.
(Note: I'm sorry these posts aren't what I'd hoped they would be. But maybe that's fitting for the season. Just kind of mentally fried right now. :D)
But YOU can make them better by letting everyone know what YOUR favorite flipflop_diva entries were! Or thoughts/favorite memories... whatever...
