Well, as I’ve said before, I fucking hate American Idol. I have changed my opinion of the show slightly due to Blake Lewis but overall it still sucks.
Kim, OTOH, is a HUGE American Idol fan and is the sole reason that I happen to watch it at all. This season, the first in my memory, she has been participating along with Vote for the Worst who asks people to vote for the “Idol” that their site feels is the absolute worst.
So, for this season they have had a couple of choices (I don’t see much of a difference between the majority of them) but the latest has been that completely worthless is the ever so awful Sanjaya Malakar.
He’s so absolutely terrible that I can’t even handle it. I have asked Kim to fast forward NUMEROUS times so we can bypass his off-key, ugly big hair, crap performances so I can at least sleep at night. I have nightmares about the time he wore the fedora and tried to pull of a Michael Jackson lookalike contest on stage.

Just for your viewing pleasure here’s a clip of him singing last night and shots of the retarded girl that was crying for him in the crowd that the cameramen decided they should cut to every 6 seconds:
Kim has proclaimed this clip “SO craptastic!” Coming from a self-reported American Idol fan that is pretty fucking damning…

Knowing that he is probably THE worst fucking person ever in American Idol’s final group, I figured that this doofus would be gone in short order. Well, in comes both Vote for the Worst and people like Kim. Kim has decided that the American Idol producers and judges need to learn a lesson and not bother putting through someone as fucking awful as Sanjaya Malakar and for this reason (and probably to piss me off) she called in at least 10x last night to vote for that moron. Honestly, I was almost in tears like that ugly girl they kept showing last night.
On top of all of this, there was the possible scandal that Chris Sligh gave a shoutout to Dave who apparently runs Vote for the Worst. This caused a stir amongst the judges to which they would not reply when Ryan Seacrest asked what they were murmuring about.
Overall, whatever, I don’t care but I thought everyone would like to hear what a ridiculous amount of non-sense goes on with this show and its cottage web-based industries and vote fixing.
If you aren’t as fortunate as I am to be married to someone who is so obsessed with this show and all the drama that goes along with it, I just want you to know that I want to move in w/you. Any takers?

Truly horrible. Man. He’s kinda gross.
The girl crying is just like that girl in A Hard Day’s Night. Oh, there are people that innocent in this day in age still around? How cute.

The crying girl was most likely a plant. A hired actor. That little scene was meant to evoke the craziness that was the “British Invasion” of the sixties. She perfectly portrayed the over wrought Beatles fans that were often so loud as to drown out the performances they went to see.

yeah, being that they can’t judge who’s a good singer and who isn’t, it doesn’t surpise me that they couldn’t find someone who could feign emotion very well.

Blake sucks too. Not as bad as Sanjaya of course.
The “Dave” shoutout thing is not what caused a stir with the judges. The producers probably watch the Vote for the Worst site, but the judges aren’t going to be reading through the forums carefully enough to know what that reference means. They were probably reacting to an off-color hand gesture Ryan made shortly before that.

Paul,
Not sure how I didn’t see this one in the queue. Sorry for the length of time it took me to approve this one :(
