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.”

I don't think they will simon doesn't seem to be that big a fan of country music, on idol he knew crap about country music. I just don't see him going in to that territory.

I could see someone like Kelly Clarkson. It seems like something she wouldn't mind trying out (granted I know nothing about her) and since she's been there, it would be a great fit.

oh kelly would be good ia! kind of like cheryl cole on the UK show. she actually did some random show on ABC called duets so she's done something similar in the past.

i thought kelly and simon didn't really like each other? since she's shaded AI

She's kind of boring on that low rated singing show Duets that I assume is cancelled now

i hope miley replaces demi...miley is WAY MORE likable and mature than demi and she has more experience and success, so i think she would be a better mentor...
