Tatiana Del Toro – American Idol Season 8 Top 36 Contestant
Tatiana Nicole Del Toro – San Francisco – 23 – Los Angeles – Audition – H’wood “I’m Your Baby Tonight – H’wood “chair” – Semi Final Week 1 – AI Hollywood Video AI Top 36 Video
Holy Mother of God. This chick is so freaking annoying. In fact, sheà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢s so annoying, I’m not at all surprised she made the Top 36, as the producers seem hell-bent on making Season 8 à ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã…“Big Brotherà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ with singing. Her vocals are average, but her over-the-top antics are just made for TV.
You can see Tatiana in all her OTT glory in these clips from the Hollywood group round. Here she is, with her nutty laugh, driving her groupmates crazy- VIDEO. Here, she abandons her group, and then decides “nevermind” – VIDEO. Do not miss Tatiana thanking Jesus and all the little people after her group advances (despite sucking) – VIDEO
And here’s the MySpace blog post she wrote, that was quickly taken down (contestants still in the competition are not supposed to be blogging) but saved via JoesPlace, HERE.
so in response to all the judgment as inà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦I am a drama queen, crazy, fake. Honestly, I donà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬Ã¢â€ž ¢t think anyone can imagine the kind of hurt people were trying to inflict on me during the taping of hollywood week and how long it went on and how intesne and relentless it was. Seriously that was ten minutes of DAYS HOURS OF PEOPLE HUMILIATING ME AND STABBING ME. Alot of people were ganging up on meà ¢Ã¢â€š ¬ ¦calling me hurtful sick names, speaking ill of me, and overall attempting to ruin my career that I have been working on for 24 years since I have been born.
…and it goes on and on like that.
This girl has been cast for the dramz, no doubt about it. She’s studied acting at the New York Film Academy, which really tells you all you need to know about Tatiana.

may I be the first to say, blech!
I thought it was Von from the clue. Haha. I hate Von more than this girl. At least she brought on the lulz with the thanking the soundstick guy. Von, however, has never been mildly entertaining… just annoying all the way.
Her MySpace blog was LOLtastic – “my career that I have been working on for 24 years since I have been born.” LOLOLOLOL.
I don’t know if what she said about the other people calling her “satan” and other names is an exaggerated account but if that’s true then I kinda do feel bad for her. She’s crazy and annoying but she never displayed any hint of mean-spritedness or “satanic” tendencies to me. Heh.
You know, Tatiana makes me nervous in that she seems just loony enough to snap – if TPTB work her the wrong way, who knows what she might do. Especially as she’s been led to believe that she’s actually good enough to be in the top 36.
Mj, you seem right on with this statement and I really hate that the producers are doing this. There seems to be so many talented, interesting contestants without all the manufactured nonsense. I am so thankful that last season wasn’t like this. The contestants who are “for real” deserve so much better.
Yikes. Get her off my TV please.
Hopefully she’ll be disqualified somehow and someone more deserving, like Felicia Barton, will get the spot instead.
Even more annoying than Von Smith .. and that’s saying a lot.
Definitely wrong turn, AI – going further down the dark, not funny road. Flirting with people’s OTT behaviors which are obviously born of insecurities could easily push people over the edge – and that is NOT entertainment. Choosing to keep someone on the show based primarily on their strong ‘hate’ value has no place on this show, IMHO. Tatiana has absolutely no business being in the Top 36. When you want to turn off the TV, throw something at it, or ‘mute’ the volume, you’re not dealing with an entertaining individual.
AI has always had an element of making fun of some folks, though it was mostly during the auditions. So what now? They’ve shortened the auditions only to allow the worst of that TV to bleed onto the show? Can I say a big fat yeech! If this show goes delves more into the ‘reality show’ blech than the ‘discovering new musical talent’ show, like Seacrest, ‘I’m out’.
I’m still thinking at least some of her over the top routine is an act. I get a kick out of her, probably because I’m only watching her antics and drama on tv and not having to cope with her in real life.
I’m not sure how “drama” in the form of Tatiana helps the ratings. She’s the kind of person who makes me f/f not stop to listen. We didn’t listen to her rants at all. :thumbdown_tb:
She’s an OTT waste of a space.
Heh…I don’t care how weak the group is, no way she makes it to the top 12 after the edit she got.
Well, there’s your VFTW season 8 runaway fave.
Hopefully, her group in the top 36 will have some good talented performers for viewers to get behind so that she won’t be able sneak into the top 12.
Ugh.
I agree with all the above! This show is upsetting when it rewards negative behaviour. I hate the message of reality shows that are freak shows. Be rude, dysfunctional, psychotic, narcissistic, selfish or crude and you’ll get your 15 minutes. AI throws in the drama but for the most part it’s been a feel good show rewarding people for talent. There seems to be more dysfunctional behaviour hogging the spotlight this year, from that skankwhore BG, the serious psycho girl in audition who flipped the bird all the time, and now this ANNNOYING nutcase. She’s not funny, she’s irritating, self obsessed, and just plain crazy! The only good part is she probably won’t last long. Ugh, I second that Gwen!
ETA: You know when something is sooo horrible you should look away but you just can’t? I just read her blog rant, OMG LMFAO!! This girl is seriously psycho. “In fact my parents were very hard on me and taught me to fetch for myself.” You were raised as a dog? No wonder you are barking mad
I just don’t like the direction AI is going with the season. Tatiana is so over the top, you want to smack her. Or is it all an act?
Good summary, geekygirl. I have no sympathy for this gal.
Nor I Grammie, hardkandy nicely said she felt sorry for her if all the name calling is true, but all I can say there is no fire without smoke or whatever the cliche is. The contestants are generally pretty supportive of each other in the early rounds, bar the conflicts in the groups. If she is being an outcast, there is probably a reason! And she’s given us a pretty good showing of what it is. Let’s make it ALL about ME!

You never know. If the producer wanted more drama, they could give Tatiana one of the three wild card.
Wow, and I thought the mj’s crowd would embrace this little [fake] Latina firecracker just like the did Katharine McPhee. [Reads, above comments..."loony"...."narcissistic"...."crazy" ] Oh, it appears that you all have. Now if she can just learn to shriek and flash her womanly bits a bit more then runner up should be a lock.
Honestly, I think she is a whole lot more talented than her detractors believe her to be and apparently she will have at least a few more chances to prove it.
Some of it is probably an act – she’s probably exaggerating to draw attention. But this chick needs to be in therapy, not on AI.
She is the only reason to be happy about the return to the 36 semifinalist format, as it’s hard to see her getting out of one of the groups.
She’s crazy and I like that.
