The Girl Who Flipped Off Simon Cowell
Alexis Cohen, who cursed her way into the spotlight after being rejected from American Idol was struck by a car and killed. Police are investigating the case as a homicide. Let's hope Cowell has an alibi.
He did say that she looked like actor Willam Defoe, but that's not exactly threatening her life. Cohen, referred to by fans as "glitter girl" for her makeup rather than her sparkling personality, auditioned most notably in January of 2008 when she delivered her famous rant. She returned the next year and acted nice and sweet, saying she had turned over a new leaf, until she was rejected and flipped off the judges once again. She will be missed for actually doing what we wish we could do every time we watch the show.
