Chas, most of my response was to her performance of amazing grace..

Of course she has talent, but also had every opportunity to succeed. And they did use her celebrity as a weight loss success story via advertising.


There were a lot of American Idol "stars" that were overrated because of TV exposure..


Rachelle could have topped that performance

BTW: I seen both Dave and Donny lose a hundred pounds... it didn't help their stardom

I lost a hundred pounds in high school... she was one of my favorite girlfriends
