Despite insisting from singer andAmericanIdol judge Katy Perry, contestant Sara Beth Liebe doesn’t think show business is for her.
Liebe, 25, quit the vocal competition during Sunday night’s Idol episode, claiming she felt guilty for being away from her three young children.
The decision to throw in the towel comes only weeks after Perry, 38, was criticized by viewers for “mom-shaming” Liebe — who had her first child when she was 18 years old — during her initial audition.
Perry was scolded online for joking that Liebe had been “laying on the table too much.” Read more: Kaley Cuoco welcomes 1st child: ‘New light of our lives’ During Sunday’s episode, Liebe first expressed her desire to leave the competition to guest vocal coach Clay Aiken, who was a runner-up on Season 2 of American Idol.
