So true. This girl did not go on idol to be on tv for five minutes or to be a viral TH-cam star, she did it because she thought she was good and that she could win and be a worldwide music sensation. And I think that’s so beautiful.
Staged or not staged I still felt sorry for her. She was a nice person but just a little bit weird with her solo act. I think she actually could have a good background voice. But she just can't sing solo so far as I've seen. She tried God bless her she's a lot more brave than I could ever be.
It’s crazy, cause I know there’s real people out there that act like this and (mostly kids) and they just are so unaware of what’s really happening compared to their version of reality
Mary now works as an assistant manager at a bait and tackle shop in Jacksonville, Fl. On weekends she sings in a tribute band to Patsy Cline at a place called Scooter's Ranch.
She was completely right about being original and totally committed to this performance. She may have been wrong for Idol, but she’s memorable AF and gave a show. Go Mary!
She was a theatre person who auditioned as an experiment, she knows she was singing terribly. This is not her being genuine, she was having a laugh, seeing how far she could take it.
@urhypeboy Her audition was staged....Mary is a comedic actress. At the end when she sings again, notice she almost breaks character and starts to laugh.
Think about her is, I think she has a beautiful speaking voice; and she should do voice overs or commercials or voice acting of some kind. I've watch this numerous times because I like to hear her speak. Strange.
She needs to work on vocal cord closure (you can tell because she even SPEAKS breathy), drop the weird poorly done Rob Thomas impression, and work on breath support and projection (aka become louder, working on vocal cord closure would help this a lot.) and voila, you now have a singer on your hands. She could also potentially benefit from working on darkening her tone a bit as well but that depends more on her own personal preference. Source: I'm a classically trained singer. Singing has a lot more components to it than any non-singer knows, she has a lot of potential. Edit: also, if you told me she's actually able to sing and she's just an actor hired to perform badly to spice up the show I would fully believe you.
I completely agree. It made me feel so bad for her, i wish her friends would have been honest with her. She didn’t deserve to be absolutely humiliated on national television. But I guess i would like to think she knew the risks going into this and she was in fact going to be JUDGED. lol. and bless her heart for continuing to try and show her skills at the end interview lol.
It’s like she wants to go really hard on every note, but then doesn’t follow through on any of them. Like she’s just constantly tapping her foot on the gas pedal
It’s like trying to sing with the same energy and punch as the original, but she realized her pitch ruins it when she tries, so she goes back to doing it quieter where she can control the pitch better, and then back and forth
"All my friends have told me that I have an amazing voice" This is why you shouldn't lie to your friends. If you can't tell them they suck, at least do not encourage them
Mary Roach is my ALL TIME favorite audition. She commanded everyone's attention. We all receive criticism and try to keep our composure. We strive to be honest and listen to our inner voices.
Scripted isn't the right word cause that would imply the show told her to do this. She was playing a character by choice and the producers often pick "unstable" people for ratings. She knew exactly what she was doing
This hurts my heart to see the stress this young lady is going through. As for her friends that told her she has a good voice.,they lied to her giving her false confidence . MEAN nasty FRIENDS
I love me some Mary Roach. I just bought her lastest release, Mood Swings and Inner Voices. Brilliant album from a very disturbed genius. She scares me, and I like it. I like it, a lot.
@@NickNutjob at which point you see her breathing her character? because i don't see it at all. She was on Instagram for a short time, she's ain't an actress. If she was we would surely hear about her
No. Actually I think she can sing well, really, hear me out: Watch the last two minutes of the video where she sings for the camera. Also, her speaking voice is really soothing. And, it could be she was nervous and her voice choked up at the audition.
@@janetpattison8474No. Some people can squander their money on voice lessons. But, they will never sing in a manner that will draw an audience or lead to a career in music.
She knew the assignment. If you have ever been to one of these you never would have never made it to this level unless you are really good or really bad. The show runners offer trips to people that are terrible for comedic affect.
Mary Roach would be great in the M✫vies!🎥🎞️ Her sweet soft voice & her ability to stay straight face without breaking would be fantastic for comedies,Horrors & Dramas!
Sometimes I wonder if this auditions were real or just made from the production for more fun and audience following....really seems no real such a crazy people.....
Ahh what a simpler time this was.
Right

Ugh- thought the same thing!! 😢
“How did you think you did”
“Not too shabby”
Gets me every time😂
“At least I’m not gonna walk out here crying.”
Literally starts crying after walking out.
Dude, she’s crying. On her way home in a taxi or airplane or however she got there she’s crying believe me she’s crying.
She had real reason to be upset. Watch the last minute and think again.
She appeared to be on the verge, but managed to hold her tears back.
That's what they always do in theatre

I can not believe I am the only one who can easily see that the woman is a genuine nutcase. Guaranteed Hitchcock-level nut. I guarantee it.
I knew she was messing with us when she said “Gilbeaux” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Its because she's overweight

it's really interesting to me how people's talking voice and speaking voice could be so different
Yes, you are strange. As is Mary.

The way she speaks is cringe... Get some help
I think she is an actress. You can see her almost break character and start to life at 6:11. 😂😂
Girl you're right
This was a character she was doing. The real Mary Roach was trying to become a comedian and this was her trying to make a debut
I actually think no, she was genuine. She was too tense before her audition. If that was an act, she's a better actress than Meryl Streep.
I always thought this was mightve been a plant for views.
@@darrenhenderson3 yes she has a blog about it and wrote a book

Completely deluded.
Paula actually looks sympathetic. Like she knows there's something wrong with her
This is a great character actress.
Mary Roach is my ALL TIME favorite audition. She commanded everyone's attention. We all receive criticism and try to keep our composure. We strive to be honest and listen to our inner voices.
What a fuckin iconic performance
I can't believe it's been almost two decades since my audition!
Did u go to beauty school? I like your voice.
I sure hope that was your first and last audition. Have you faced reality since then?
Awesome
She has a pleasant speaking voice
I know She may seem a little chemically imbalanced, but that doesn't stop Me from thinking how beautiful I think She is! 😍😍😍
Paula looks terrified 🤣🤣🤣
The confidence…I would love just an ounce of it
Me too
Honestly, same. I choose to believe it was an act, a good actress, but nonetheless, her confidence is enviable
The judges are looking at her like what has been unleashed on us. 😆
i need this level of confidence in my life. inspirational.
Not too shabby
one of my favorite auditions
@Julian Roane she has an IG profile but it doesn't look like she continued singing.
@Julian Roane uhmm, I dunno bout dis.
She had me rolling with the Paula Abdul comment 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Beautiful and pleasant speaking voice
Her talking voice was very soothing tho
“Not too shabby”
I teach a psychology course to my students , every time I touch upon on the subject of delusion , I show them this video ...
@Les yeah I’m gonna need a link to that video noW
@Les need link now
@Les this is false
It’s very obviously an act, she was paid to bomb, as are a lot of people
She not delusional she is acting, she is a comedian and went on this show as a skit/joke. You are spreading misinformation.
3:11
All my friends told me that I was an awesome singer.
Randy: What?! 🤣
She'll have her own comedy show in a few years, nice performance!
I quote "whatever" while shrugging my shoulders in my day to day life because of her
She'd make a great period drama actress.. like a Western or Victorian aged role.. or phone operator lol
All her friends and random people that told her she could sing played her
She almost breaks character at 6:09
Are they just playing?

Insane in the membrane
she looked like she wanted to punch simon,really scary!
Actress... She must have been acting
Best contestant ever
She really gave it her all 😂😂😂
She would make an great asrm artist
I agree. Her voice had me so mesmerized. I can't stop replaying this video
Lay off her. She just got off a long shift at Target. 🤣
Not even joking I would listen to her album if she released one.
no.
Why?
I would listen to it too lol it would be pure comedy.
Get ur ears cleaned
Did you have the subtitles, switched on, or is your hearing aid batteries flat 😂
Mary Roach is the reason celebrities have security guards.
I think people were terrified into telling her she had a good singing voice
I think they were terrified to tell her the opposite
@@AriaFray yeah, because you should be terrified of telling lies
She is original asf!
I’ve always loved the “whaaatever 😐”
There's no way this is not scripted, her speaking voice sounds like she can sing, the performance looks like she's purposely tries to sound bad

Cracks me up everytime 😂😊

Can you imagine what terrible friends she has if they let her get humiliated like that and encouraged her to go in front of Simon?
Really, absolutely ridiculous, so called friends to actually lie to her. She can’t sing now, but she can learn to sing, or maybe act.

I wonder what she's doing now too.
She got married. Then sang to her new husband on honeymoon. And he shot her dead . She is somewhere buried in the woods.
True story
I think she has a very good heart 😢 wish her all the best
All her friends tell her she is a great singer because they want to live.
