Does anyone know how many people auditioned in each city? What the criteria was? Did everyone get to see the three judges or was there a screening process?

Someone who audition posted on the imdb board said that there was a screening process (in fact, two days of initial auditions. One for the screening and the second to see the judges)

Criterion to audition for YOU'RE THE ONE THAT I WANT:

Must have a physicality that can either be:

a) easily insulted and dismissed (plan to stay for a maximum of 3 episodes if you fall into this category)

b) embraced and and placed in a cardboard box with the other contestants that will stay around for most of the series.

Must be white (minor exception: there will be 3-4 token African-American performers that will get kicked off mid-way through the series, one Asian-American, 5 Latinos that will be dismissed every other episode accordingly, with the possibility of an Indian-American that will be dismissed early in an episode around sweeps month).

Need to be able to sing -or- not be able to sing.

Women: Must be pretty, white, blonde and have big boobs.

Men: Must be pretty, white, with dark brown/black hair and a toned body.

Brains optional.

Apparently talent is also optional if I'm not mistaken.
