WHAT THE JUDGES ARE LOOKING FOR

In my last post I talked about the American Idol judges saying that they found a contestants facial expressions distracting. Your initial reaction may have been "so what". If a singer does something that distracts their audience, their audience wont have their full attention on their singing but will be partially focused on what the singer is doing that is distracting. I played violin in an amateur orchestra for 15 years, and my director explained to us that professional orchestras usually dress in black and white so that their audience will focus on the music they are playing and not them. So as you can see in addition to talent stage presence is important.
