As most already know, the auditions pretty much just show the extremes... many of whom aren't serious about singing but are rather attention addicts.
That makes sense. I can't see Simon, Paula and Randy sitting through all 100,000 auditions over the course of 2 days. Have a crew to determine who has talent or who may have talent to be judged by Simon, Paula and Randy, and also filter through the people who could make good train wreck tv.
