Simon Cowell accused Brown of being ``robotic and somewhat empty.'' In the end, Jackson and Abdul (who made the final judgment) sent Brown through to the Hollywood rounds. During the Hollywood rounds, Brown sang ``Reflection'' by Christina Aguilera, and was one of 24 semi-finalists of the fifth season of American Idol. Following her departure from Idol, Brown made hundreds of personal appearances in 2006, most covered by local or national media and drawing as many as 500 to 2,000 or more fans.
