Alexis Cohen American Idol

American Idol contestant Alexis Cohen auditioned with the song "Somebody to Love" on the January 15, 2008 episode of the hit televised singing competition. She seemed to take the rejection from the judges well until she left the audition room. She spoke with host Ryan Seacrest and released her anger directed towards Simon Cowell. She ranted and cussed, flipped off the cameras and stated that she would become an actress.

TMZ.com reported on July 26, 2009 that Alexis has been struck and killed by a car in Seaside Heights, New Jersey. Authorities have labeled the incident a homicide.http://www.tmz.com/2009/07/26/american-idol-contestant-homicide-victim-alexis-cohen/
