Fox News Channel profiled whether ‘American Idol’ contestants get properly groomed for the music industry being on the hit show, getting thoughts from Billboard writer Anne Donahue and veteran performers Mary Mary, Neil Diamond and Cyndi Lauper. “You know they have it a lot harder. I don’t think I would’ve won. I wouldn’t be an ‘American Idol’, but I think that it’s a different world, and that’s our forum. The industry’s changing, and that’s their shot, or a shot, or the beginning of the long road.”
The video at FoxNews.com has since been removed.
