"Back when I used to watch American Idol, my favorite thing was when some girl would walk into the room and say she was going to sing Mariah or Whitney or Celine and the judges would all just roll their eyes and flop over in their chairs and start texting or whatever, because the only person who can sing like Celine Dion is Celine Dion, OK? But then the Idol girl would open her mouth and it’d be heaven and the judges would gape at her like a gaggle of dummies, and that’s exactly what happens when Rachel shows up at her second Funny Girl callback and says she’s going to sing “To Love You More.” She crushes it, she crushes it so hard she makes herself cry. When Lea Michele gets to heaven, God’s gonna be like, “Every other angel, shut up!"
