https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAI8qkUgqU4 From the second she stomped into the judging room, Ariel Burdett was just plain scary. From her curious bleached-blonde dreadlocks to her antagonistic, argumentative, and hostile nature, she gave off a terrible vibe- not what one would expect from a supposed "holistic" vocal coach. What's more, she did NOT take criticism well: after the judges panned her self-composed audition piece, Ariel became completely belligerent. Between hurling her contestant number at the judges to her parting words- a creepy, vaguely threatening, sing-song monologue- Ariel ensured that judge Cheryl Cole wasn't the only one frightened when she finally walked away.
1. Ablisa
Who could ever forget the fiasco that was Ablisa? Its hard to choose what part of the audition was the most horrific: the girls' constant arguing and interrupting, absolutely abysmal singing, disgracefully terrible attitudes, or the simple fact that Abby furiously punched Lisa, her supposed best friend (and possible cousin, as the two bumblingly explained), in the face while the duo were onstage. Ablisa might not have made it to the top of the charts, but they certainly cemented themselves in the memories of X-Factor fans as one of the most shocking and ghastly auditions one could ever see. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrNbLBS1D2Q
