Baylie's back, y'all
Ran into Krum teenager Baylie Brown, who made it to Hollywood last season only to be rejected in favor of the tone-deaf-yet-totally-smokin'-hot Antonella Barba during group performances. Brown, now much wiser at 17, said she's more confident this time around. "I know what to expect this time, so I think I should make it further." Her audition songs? "When Will I Be Loved" and Faith Hill's "Lost." Brown was in a hurry to make it into the stadium (maybe she didn't have to wait in line this year -- I didn't ask), so she gave a short answer when I asked what she'd been up to since her moment in the spotlight last season. "I've just been singing a lot," she said. Get 'em, girl.
