Eliminated Jennel Garcia says Demi turned her into something she wasn't



After Jennel’s shocking elimination from ‘The X Factor’, she vowed that it’s ‘time for me to show the world who I really am.’ Distraught, she admitted she felt Demi turned her into something she wasn’t and audiences didn’t like it. 

Jennel Garcia became the latest victim to get the ax from The X Factor, as the judges chose to save Paige Thomas instead of her after a dramatic sing off. Jennel, who has vowed to pursue her dream of becoming a star, says that she now wants to shake off the image that she was given by her mentor Demi Lovato, as she feels she “was letting Demi do what she wanted. “The makeup; the hair; the heels; that wasn’t necessarily me and I was letting Demi do what she wanted, and I was going to listen to her no matter what because she’s my mentor and I trust her.”

Jennel also regrets not pushing Demi more on the song choice of “Proud Mary,” which she believes is the reason why she was went home. “I really put up a fight about singing ‘Proud Mary’ because the other song we were working on was ‘You Oughta Know’ by Alanis Morissette, which is way more me than ‘Proud Mary,’ but everyone disagreed and said ‘Proud Mary’ was the one. Clearly it was not, so I was right. I should’ve stuck up for myself more. I should have given them a piece of my mind, much more than I did, but I didn’t because I wanted to be good and cooperative.”

Well she didn't lie.... I'm going to miss her.

I loved her audition, everything she did after that was just lackluster. Also this is gonna break demi's heart, you know she wants to bang jennel.
ragechill 19th-Nov-2012 12:15 am (UTC)
R.I.P True love imo!

aprilfunk 19th-Nov-2012 01:36 am (UTC)
wow demi definitely made her a clone
england88533 18th-Nov-2012 11:56 pm (UTC)
shes telling the truth tho I loved her audition and at boot camp but not in the live shows thanks to demi
kydeon 18th-Nov-2012 11:56 pm (UTC)



she looks way better than before
tiiara 19th-Nov-2012 12:03 am (UTC)
but she never looked comfortable this way on stage. her curly hair didn't need to be changed. they just needed to give her clothes that fit right.
heart_of_butter 19th-Nov-2012 12:45 am (UTC)
Jennel looks so much like Britney in the face!
cityxpretty 19th-Nov-2012 02:09 am (UTC)
I don't think she looks totally different...but I wasn't a fan of most of her song choices.
onyxobsidian 18th-Nov-2012 11:57 pm (UTC)
Alanis Morissette isn't exactly a diva though, and it was diva night.
squishinator 19th-Nov-2012 12:37 am (UTC)
because having 3 lines from a katy perry song mashed with queen is diva?
onyxobsidian 19th-Nov-2012 12:47 am (UTC)
No, that for sure wasn't either.
mikeblitzz 18th-Nov-2012 11:57 pm (UTC)
Demi just tried to give all of her contestants a complete overhaul and like it just isn't working.
ch33rylips 19th-Nov-2012 12:07 am (UTC)
Lol demi just turned all her girls into current people in the industry. Paige is riri 3.0, Cece is Keesha & Jennel is Demi.
bahk 19th-Nov-2012 12:11 am (UTC)
preach
ferniinberlin 19th-Nov-2012 12:16 am (UTC)
but that's the thing, she has turned them into cheap copies. And to be a cheap copy of Kesha... that's saying something, and im a huge stan lol
mikeblitzz 19th-Nov-2012 12:29 am (UTC)
exactly. it's sooooooo bad lmao. the only contestant with a chance of making it far is paige and even the public is starting to hate her.
logan_lerman 19th-Nov-2012 12:52 am (UTC)
lmao irl keesha

so true though ugh demi
faz1988 19th-Nov-2012 01:21 am (UTC)
This isn't true tho. CeCe came in that way with her leopard face and stuff. And Paige has been working the Rih-Rih knockoffs since her audition too.

How did she try and overhaul them even a little?
ichdontthinksoo 18th-Nov-2012 11:58 pm (UTC)
I don't watch this show but based on the last posts is safe to assume there's a lot of mentoring fail going on.
heart_of_butter 19th-Nov-2012 12:01 am (UTC)
Don't even get me started on what Simon did to Lyric145
msweetie913 19th-Nov-2012 12:20 am (UTC)
that was a travesty tbh
mikeblitzz 19th-Nov-2012 12:45 am (UTC)
ugh such a failure when it came to cultivating that group's potential.
holleratalex 19th-Nov-2012 09:03 am (UTC)
ugh. i hope LA signs them or at least lyric da queen
katiefitch 18th-Nov-2012 11:58 pm (UTC)
demi is just too young to be a mentor/judge
nasstasja_sk 18th-Nov-2012 11:59 pm (UTC)
Demi is an awful mentor, just awful. She took the mojo of everyone in her category, especially Jennel and Willie.
heart_of_butter 19th-Nov-2012 12:00 am (UTC)
And I just CAN'T with all the praise being heaped on Beatrice.

It's like

Beatrice: "Mumble mumble ooohhhhhhhhh"

Judges: "OMGLIHGFKDLfgddfglkjetgh594 THAT WAS THE MOST AMAZING SINGING I HAVE EVER HEARD"

Beatrice: "Mumble."
bahk 19th-Nov-2012 12:02 am (UTC)
i sit there like wtf is happening.
floorpies 19th-Nov-2012 12:26 am (UTC)
i think she sounds a LOT like miley cyrus.. i just don't like her voice at all and don't see the appeal with her
mikeblitzz 19th-Nov-2012 12:46 am (UTC)
she's a good singer. it's the song choices and the image overhaul they're trying to do with her.
kstew 19th-Nov-2012 01:02 am (UTC)
tbh she's so boring i usually end up not remembering her enough to like or hate her
mac00374 19th-Nov-2012 12:00 am (UTC)
sad to see her go, i liked her more than the other girls in that category. but lbr, carly >>>>>>> everyone else on this show.
ch33rylips 19th-Nov-2012 12:02 am (UTC)
If Carly doesn't win this rigged show I will be pressed for at least an hour.
ch33rylips 19th-Nov-2012 12:01 am (UTC)
Lol what's the point of waiting till after the fact to speak up tho. Also Simon has been saying this to her all during the live show but she was all no I like my new look, I like this song, it's what I want.
chiixhideki 19th-Nov-2012 12:02 am (UTC)
ikr? i don't feel much sympathy for her
heart_of_butter 19th-Nov-2012 12:03 am (UTC)
Yeah but saying something like "I hate this direction, my mentor was wrong" is NAGL

Even Lyric had to defend/avoid questions about the flop direction Simon was taking her group in
ch33rylips 19th-Nov-2012 12:08 am (UTC)
Ok then don't say it then like afterwards be like yeah Demi I agree with Simon.
floorpies 19th-Nov-2012 12:26 am (UTC)
mte...
bahk 19th-Nov-2012 12:01 am (UTC)
also what I don't like about this show is the mandatory makeovers. there was nothing wrong with cece's look that they had to bleach her blonde. it looks horrendous and she was wayyyy more pretty before. between her and paige they just morphed them into lady gaga/rihanna stans. nagl.
kydeon 19th-Nov-2012 12:02 am (UTC)
They fired last year's expensive celebrity stylists / hairdressers (Ken Paves) and makeup artists, and are now using American Idol's because they are cheap as hell
bahk 19th-Nov-2012 12:04 am (UTC)
oh wow. they make them look like practice models done by the cosmetology class at my high school.
rydiachachunk 19th-Nov-2012 12:35 am (UTC)
Demi probably did it because Jennel was a brunette. :/
kstew 19th-Nov-2012 01:03 am (UTC)
ikr cece is so pretty but this bleach blonde hair she has now is taking away from that
chiixhideki 19th-Nov-2012 12:02 am (UTC)
i cant @ tate/vino/emblem3 being in the top 4
i cant @ lyric 145 already being gone
i cant @ cece somehow being 5th
i cant @ my queens only being 6th

i cant @ this whole show
hotness3ya 19th-Nov-2012 12:04 am (UTC)
OMG ARE YOU ME??? Crying at everything right now.
rpsuc 19th-Nov-2012 12:04 am (UTC)
5H placing 6th was the true travesty of the night lbr
ferniinberlin 19th-Nov-2012 12:19 am (UTC)
yes, i don't really care about the rest, it just freaks me out that these girls are not slaying the competition. Carly, sure, the rest? hell to the no!
katiefitch 19th-Nov-2012 12:06 am (UTC)
i still maintain those aren't the real rankings lol simon just wants the overs gone and they're not doing as badly as he wants them to so he's trying to get ppl to think they don't need to vote for them

those will be the rankings until tate and vino are one day magically in the bottom

vino and tate don't bother me as much as beatrice and emblem 3 tbh.. but i agree on ur comment for the most part!!
buffymovies 19th-Nov-2012 12:03 am (UTC)
I really liked her. I think this was just one of those flukes like there are in every season of a singing shows where her fans just didnt vote. It was obvious she didn't deserve to go yet.

and while Demi's acts aren't doing so well, Demi remains the only judge that I'm entertained by on X-factor.
bahk 19th-Nov-2012 12:55 am (UTC)
i'm entertained by here like when you're "entertained" by someone being embarrassing in public
