How Can Crystal Bowersox Win American Idol?

Sunshine Wilson
Twenty-four year old Crystal Bowersox is said to be the frontrunner of American Idol and many believe that she will win American Idol this season. She is an incredible singer and continues to have a large number of fans voting for her. But, as I wrote in a previous article, Who Will Win American Idol?, I do not think Crystal Bowersox will win American Idol; I think she will be the runner up.

Unless......

There is one thing that Crystal Bowersox can do to win American Idol: Improve her appearance onstage.

If she wants to win American Idol, Crystal Bowersox has got to improve her appearance onstage. Many callers vote for the best looking, prettiest or handsomest contestant. Crystal is an attractive woman, but she has been doing things to detract from her looks instead of enhancing them. Reportedly, since day one, Crystal has refused to take advice from the American Idol stylist regarding her appearance onstage, and has steadfastly maintained her own style. Some may say that this is admirable, but not if she wants to win American Idol. There is a reason American Idol uses a stylist; they know what fashion is currently in style, what makes the contestant look good and what the public wants to see. Crystal Bowersox should take the stylist's advice.

How Can Crystal Bowersox Win American Idol? Get Rid of the Dreadlocks

The dreadlocks sported by Crystal Bowersox are controversial and, in the opinion of many American Idol voters, unattractive. She had her dreadlocks for four and a half years, but she would look much better with a more up-to-date style. What would it take to undo her dreadlocks? About five hours of patient combing with a lot of conditioner. At the very least, Crystal Bowersox could pin up her dreadlocks and wear a fashionable hairpiece.

How Can Crystal Bowersox Win American Idol? Get Rid of the Piercing

The piercing below the bottom lip is very distracting to the otherwise pretty face of Crystal Bowersox. It would be very easy for her to remove this piercing until the American Idol competition is over.

How Can Crystal Bowersox Win American Idol? Whiten Her Teeth

There are many products on the market today that Crystal Bowersox could use to quickly and easily whiten her teeth. If these products are unsuccessful, perhaps American Idol could send her to a good cosmetic dentist in the Los Angeles area.

How Can Crystal Bowersox Win American Idol? Wear Better Clothing

The darkish hippy type wardrobe chosen by Crystal Bowersox looks like it came from a second hand store. Her appearance onstage on American Idol would be greatly enhanced by some more stylish clothing selections, including some new shoes.

    Crystal could win, but the voting on American Idol is often unpredictable with strage upsets. It's hard to say what would happen if she changed her look,at this point. Now that the show is coming to an end, she might be better off staying with what she's done (or at least make only small changes), which actually she has done.

    It's interesting when it's not necessarily the talent of an artist that determine the winner. Good reporting.
