I happened by her performance of Bonnie Raitt's "Something to Talk About" flipping channels last night. She brought the house down and had the judges dancing and high-fiving.

Ugh! Who let John Rich sit in the judge’s chair?? He lost all credibility with me when he picked Julio Iglesias, Jr. as the winner of Gone Country.
I'm not sure if I am more impressed with her performance or the fact that she has five children.
