American Idol 11 (2012) Baylie Brown Spoilers and Predictions
According to spoiler site TheIdolPad, Baylie Brown has made the Top 42 for the 11th season of American Idol. She was presented as a country singer in Season 6, a year in which Baylie was a prominent auditioner at the age of 16. She was cut in the group round and has come back five years later to make another Idol run. This time around, look for Baylie to easily make the voting rounds unless she has another lyrics meltdown like in Season 6.
The first time around, Brown seemed very popular from the start. And then things took a 180-degree turn during the group round. She was teamed up with Antonella Barba and her friend Amanda Coluccio. Baylie’s youth showed, and she essentially blamed the other two for flirting with guys and such. The truth is none of that made Baylie forget ALL of the lyrics. She simply was not ready and appeared to have mastered one song at the time.
While it remains to be seen how well she will fare this time, I would expect Bailey to easily make it to the voting rounds if the spoilers are correct that she made the Top 42. Otherwise, there would probably be no strong reason to keep her around that long unless the producers think they can get another meltdown. Thus, the odds are that Bailey will make it.
There was a short clip of her audition for American Idol 11, where she sang Bon Jovi’s “Bed of Roses.” At least she is singing a different song now. You can see that clip below. It is too short to make a talent assessment, though. We will just have to wait and see how it plays out when the audition episodes air.
Will Bailey Win American Idol?
My prediction is she has virtually no chance of winning if her personality and talent level anything like they were 5 years ago. Brown is sort of like Kelly Pickler. She seems aloof and unintelligent. Does that mean she has no talent? Of course not. Does that mean she is not commercially viable? Of course not. But we are not talking Lauren Alaina talent here. Bailey is the exact type of contestant that is always overrated talent wise because the show thinks she is good for ratings. She gives off an air of wanting to be a star, not so much a serious musician. Could I be wrong? Of course, but this is a combination of a talent contest and popularity. Some voters would vote for her simply because she is drop-dead gorgeous. But she won’t get many voters who are actually voting on talent unless she has improved dramatically over 5 years.
In conclusion, Bailey Brown has a strong chance of making the voting rounds for American Idol 11. She also has a decent chance of making the Top 12. After that, she will have a tough time winning American Idol unless she has improved her talent level to a large degree.

Baylie Brown – American Idol 11 Preview (VIDEO)
Baylie Brown auditioned in season 6, but was cut after a poor group performance with Antonella Barba. Baylie was previously signed with Universal South, although she was dropped before releasing any music. She has been working on The Singing Bee as one of the background singers, which airs on CMT. Baylie has a great look, and a decent voice. I think this season there will be some country representation, but no one who will be a real contender for the win. I could see Baylie finishing around the middle of the top 12, which I think is as far as Nigel will want any country artists to go.

Baylie Brown American Idol Auditions: Then and Now
Baylie Brown enjoyed a triumphant return to American Idol last night.
Five years after her initial appearance on the show – during which she advanced to Hollywood, was paired with uncooperative teammates ere and then forgot the lyrics on stage – this 21-year old Texan showed off a new hair color and a great voice yesterday as one of the 54 Golden Ticket recipients (along with Kristine Osorio and Ramiro Garcia) to make it out of The Lone Star State.
Watch her first try out below, lament how much we miss Simon Cowell by watching him once again in action, and then compare it to her version of “Bed of Roses” from this week’s audition.

Who Is Baylie Brown?
Facebook
‘American Idol‘ judge Randy Jackson says Baylie Brown version 2.0 is much better than the original, who auditioned in Season 6. The then 16-year-old singer made it to Hollywood but was cut after the group rounds. Now 21-years-old, more talented and working in Nashville, Brown confidently took the stage during the Season 11 audition rounds.
Brown left Krum, Texas for Nashville and signed a record deal with Universal South in 2008, but never released a song before parting ways with the label. Astute fans of ‘American Idol’ may have recognized her from her original audition, or even from her job as a backup singer on CMT’s ‘The Singing Bee.’
She’s also taken to working with area songwriters, but it’s not clear if the two original songs at her (recently ignored) MySpace page, or the song below, are from her pen.
Some odd trivia about the singer: She plays the ukulele and puts ketchup on everything. Of her first ‘Idol’ audition, she says, “‘Idol’ is a bittersweet memory to me, and I wouldn’t be where I am because of it.”
The Denise Roberts lookalike calls classic country artists like Keith Whitley, Merle Haggard and Ronnie Milsap favorites. “She claims you can never have too much steel guitar in a song,” her biography on Facebook reads. Although she auditioned with a countrified version of a Bon Jovi song, it’s likely fans will get more traditional country fare moving forward if she’s able to choose her songs.
