I understand your intent, Jessica, but in all honesty, there were several contestants who had questionable aspects.  For example, do you feel it was fair to the truly undiscovered contestants that Taylor had an album out, "Under the Radar?"  Again, if the AI producers had a problem with Kat being on the show, then they should have done something about it.  We want to keep our Mandisa community one that is welcoming and supportive.  I wish both Taylor and Kat the best.
