Nicole Tieri. a.k.a. Scooter Girl.

of American Idol Season 3.

This page is dedicated to Nicole Tieri a.k.a. Scooter Girl from American Idol Season 3 aka AI 2004. She is originally from Grand Rapids Michigan and moved to NYC in the late 90s. With some inspiration she made it to the Auditions riding her Razor Scooter®™. The Scooter became a hit and now she is known as Scooter Girl as well as Nicole. I like them both...

With a little persuasion I was able to secure an interview with her and learned quite a bit like you should get sleep when it is time and don't burn yourself out.

She didn't make it to the "Top 32" on American Idol but through the process known as the Wild Card show they can bring her back with a full chance to be in the show again. If this happens and she doesn't get all the votes needed to win the competition she will definitely make it to the Summer Tour which can be more of an adventure than the show itself.

If she should make it to the Final 10 and the Tour then it would be interesting to see what she sings as her "trademark Song". Last year we had Kimberley Locke singing "Band of Gold" and "Over the Rainbow", I would like to hear Nicole sing "Tell Him" that she sang on the Pasadena Auditions and anything else in her repertoire.

    Go you wacky Scooter Girl...

Friday the 13th of February 2004:

I did my interview with Nicole Tieri a.k.a. Scooter Girl. on Friday the 13th of February 2004 at 1 Pm. Eastern Time. You can listen to the audio on Liberty feed Internet Radio.

I will be adding links to the audio and transcribing the audio here soon soon.

Highlights: she talks about her adventures and hopes of coming back to the show via the Wildcard show and that even if this doesn't happen the adventure was fantastic so far. We even have a brief discussion with the PR person from Fox talking about the fact that Carmen Rasmusen made it to 6th place in the top 10 and Clay was brought back even though he was cut from the Final 32.

If I should get another follow-up interview it would be nice to have more questions. Just for fun feel free to send me any questions that you would want asked. If it is appropriate I will post some here.

Sorry but I have not been keeping up with the show but I just watched the results show that gave us the final 32 and I am sick. I cant believe they let Nicole Tieri aka "Scooter Girl" go. I pictured her in the top 10. I don't think we have seen the last of "Scooter Girl" If they bring her back in the "Wild Card" show. I predict that in July and August of 2004 we will be seeing her on the Tour.

If I am not mistaken: Clay Aiken got the boot from the final 32 and Paula put him back in via the Wildcard Show.

Thanks to The Raging Critic for some wacky insight and names...
