Carrie was gorgeous from the start lol

American Idol, as banal and brainless as it is, does aid social cohesion. People bond over the contestant(s) they like - and hate. More than other shoes, American Idol encourages - nay, demands - that viewers have opinions on everything from the best singing to the worst hair. Also, the show fosters the illusion that viewers have the power to choose the next singing star, rather than having the star chosen by some faceless music producer. That illusion makes people invested in the show and hooks viewers - viewers feel like they must fight for their favorite contestant.
