For the entire four-hour voting window, all three of Diana's lines were busy - trust me, I can attest to this. If all the lines were constantly busy, that means a LOT of people who wanted to vote couldn't, and the results are basically up in the air. I'm not saying it would have wound up differently if everyone had a say, just that with the 65 million they got, it's impossible for it to be representative.</p> I don’t like her Summertime, but it’s probably because it represents her evil in its most pure form.

I was at the Lilac Festival this past weekend and someone sang the Star-Spangled Banner, and it was all I could do not to cover my ears -- it's like suddenly belting and sounding like you're trying to be a combination of Celine Dion and Pavarotti is more important than actually hitting each note straight on. I sort of felt dirty all over when it was done.</p> I did like her rendition of Gershwin’s “Summertime,” but like the rest of the contestants, her tuning is baaaad.
