Hollyscoop took in the show and reports: When asked about all the controversy surrounding her and what she thought of it, Antonella said, "It was unnecessary, it was hard to deal with it, it was an unnecessary distraction...trying to stay off the Internet, some nervousness... I tried to get through it...my family has been so supportive, they told me to stay focused and we will worry about all that later."

Antonella also told Ryan that she would stay in Los Angeles for a while longer to see what offers she gets. Honey, you already got two big offers! Antonella says that singing is her number one priority but would take acting offers along with modeling.

American idol produces stars. And though this may not be exactly what they had in mind, Antonella may have just enough spunk and the looks to grab a shot. But she will have to be very careful at what offers that she chooses.
