Amanda Overmyer Is Impressively Grounded, Likes the Worsters

Not shockingly, Amanda Overmyer has come across as level-headed and intelligent in all of her post-boot interviews. Instead of spouting off like David Hernandez about how she'll work with Alicia Keys, Amanda says, "Hopefully I created enough attention that somebody wants to pick me up and let me do something with music. But chances are they won't and I might end up right back where I started... If this ends up being my 15 minutes of fame I will gracefully bow out and move on to do something different." Such a refreshing attitude. And what did Amanda think of VFTW?

Q: Are you familiar with Vote for the Worst?

A: I heard that I was their girl. [Laughs.]

Q: Did you take that personally?

A: No, it didn't personally hurt me at all. Votes are votes, you know? From what I hear, they weren't too harsh on me. [Laughs.] I think a chunk of them liked me for real.

It's that attitude that will take her far in life. It's nice to see she gets us and that she's so level headed about everything. Whoever lets Amanda know what's posted on this site, let her know the Worsters still support her and hope to see big things from her in the future. And if it doesn't work out, we'll all head on out to Lafayette and help you sell out that bar.

I love Amanda! Of course she got kicked off so early because she was the only one level-headed w/in a ten mile radius. She also didn't pander to the dumbass judges. Boo on AI!!

This was the best part of the EW interview:

I'm thankful to be here and feel very privileged to have come this far. But I absolutely refuse to be nostalgic about it. You know why? That's when you lose a sense of reality. I saw it happen with a few people. It's just ridiculous. We have the potential to be stars right now. We're not stars. All we are now is recognizable.

Now, I wonder who she was referring to when she was hinting that other AI people had lost a sense of reality? Henandez with his Alicia Keys and Stevie Wonder duet hopes?

Fair props to the girl, that interview was so refreshing.
