Simon Cowell’s Number One “American Idol” Enemy Killed in Possible Homicide

Two days ago, Alexis Cohen, one of the more memorable marchers in the parade of bizarro contestants on American Idol’s margins, was struck by a car and killed, at age 25.  She marched to the beat of a different drummer, she explained in her 2008 audition, and her odd attire earned her the moniker “Glitter Girl” in the press.  Simon Cowell thought she looked more like Willem Dafoe.

Her famous response to him, after his no-bid vote: “Excuse me, you sir, suck!” followed screams of “Take it!  Take it!  Take it!”  Video of her f*ck-you speech – one of the best performances on the show – and details of the crime, after the jump…  

Cohen was struck by a car early Saturday morning in Seaside Heights, New Jersey, and found around 5 a.m. by two passersby, who reported the death to 911. She was pronounced dead two hours later at the Community Medical Center in Toms River, New Jersey. Autopsy results showed that she had suffered chest, head and abdominal injuries. Cohen’s body was found 350 yards away from her car, which was parked in a nearby lot. Police said it was unclear if Cohen was returning to her car when she was struck…

Daniel Bark was arrested at 6 p.m. on Sunday and charged with causing Cohen’s death by reckless driving and then leaving the scene of a collision.

And yet Simon gets to live on.
