Megan Joy Corkrey, suffering from the flu, impressed on last night's American Idol with her performance of I Go Walking After Midnight.

The judges were particularly impressed with the gritty blond beauty: Kara DioGuardi praised Corkrey's seriousness, while Paula Abdul called her a "fighter".

Simon Cowell, as always, wasn't stingy with the backhanded compliments, telling Corkrey: "You should [have the] flu every week -- much better."
