So, umm, anyone else surprised about this news? Apparently Sanjaya Malakar is not gay, much to the disappointment of the awaiting gay population.
The “American Idol” reject has revealed to People magazine that he has never been interested in men, but has always had a strong interest in women.
Sanjaya says it best, so here he is: “I’ve always gotten along with girls better because I was raised by women.”
“I got teased in school because people figured I must be gay because I understand women.”
“I think that’s why guys didn’t like me – because I got along with girls so well. When I went up to girls they would give me a hug and a kiss on the cheek like I was their gay friend. But I was the straight guy that understood them.”
Hmmm, it looks like, to me, that ole Sanjaya is just milking his 15 minutes, wouldn’t you say?

"I definitely hoped that Jennifer Lopez picked up on my passion and umm...maybe I'll get her number later and we won't have to tell Marc Anthony."

It's a sad Thursday morning today, it just lacks something, some kind of motivation... Oh yeah, "Amercian Idol's" Sanjaya Malakar was tearfully sent home last Wednesday night. Now there really isn't a reason to watch the show.
After his 15 minutes of fame, even though there might be more minutes around the bend, Sanjaya was voted off "Idol" last night. When the decision was announced that he was going home, Malakar wiped off the tears & got a big hug from fellow contestant LaKisha Jones.
"I'm fine,"Â Sanjaya told Ryan Seacrest.Â
"It was an amazing experience."
Well, there goes the best part of "American Idol" this season. Wonder why they did it? Don't they know that he was the only interesting part this time around?
You tell me- Are you devastated that Sanjaya was sent home?

"That was a sassy, great performance."

Few people are willing to take on a feud with “American Idol’s” Simon Cowell, but I think veteran singer Sheryl Crow might actually stand a fighting chance against the judge.
Recently Crow stated that the singing reality show decreased the value of art & increased the commercialization of talent by saying, “‘American Idol’ undermines art in every way and promotes commercialism. I am sad people love it so.”
Wow, bolder words were never spoken regarding a reality show. But somehow I just can’t help wanting a ‘Crow Kicks Cowell’s Ass’ reality show even more!

Tuesday’s “American Idol” was one to apparently not miss! Queen bitch judge Simon Cowell publicly urged host Ryan Seacrest to come out of his gay closet.
Here’s how it all went down…. Tennessean Melinda Doolite took the stage & sang her heart out while all that Sir Simon could say after her song was that the wort part about her performance was “her dress and high heels.”
Ouch. Bad costume department, bad costume department.
Ryan then look at Simon & chided, “Any advice on the high heels, Simon?”
“You should know, Ryan,” Cowell shot back without missing a beat.
“Stay out of my closet!” Seacrest rallied.
To which Simon loudly replied, ”Come out!”
I have to admit, it was quite a little understated cat fight the duo shared. How cute, I can’t wait till they start dating in public, can you?

Posted by Allison as American Idol, Antonella Barba at 7:10 AM UTC on Mar, 12 2007

On Thursday night “American Idol” bade farewell to rising porn star Antonella Barba. After a somewhat deflating performance of the song ”Stuck in the Middle with You”, Ryan Seacrest revealed this season’s last 12 contestants.
About midway through the show Antonella & fellow contestant Stephanie Edwards took their places to hear their fate from Seacrest. With a shook-up Barba almost in tears, it took Ryan a few moments to deliver the news that we all know probably came down from on high the FOX chain. The news that Antonella Barba was going home.
Yep, and we all knew it too. After all those super sexy images of Antonella (who does she have to thank for that) hit the Net & those offers from Girls Gone Wild‘s Joe Francis came about, we knew FOX wouldn’t be able to take the heat on their family-oriented show. But, it looks like Antonella has a fun future in store for her after all.
Who made the top 12:
Wishing the rest of the “American Idol” contestants luck in the coming week & Antonella Barba luck in her upcoming future of porn.

Wow, Joe Francis knows a good thing when he sees it, doesn’t he? Girls Gone Wild producer Joe Francis wants “American Idol” contestant Antonella Barba to join his breast-flashing empire as the series’ new female host.
All this has come about due to the release of Barba’s scandalous, sexy images on the Internet. Pretty much after those racy photos appeared on the Web, folks actually started paying attention to Antonella & for good reason if you ask me. I’m sure you remember the photo of Antonella clutching her fine naked breasts on a beach, the photo of Barba wearing nothing but flower petals, the one of a porno Antonella going down on a very nicely groomed penis & last, but certainly not least, the image of our dear “American Idol” singer posed on a WWII memorial wearing just about nothing but a smile. Ahhh, the memories.
Barba is currently being offered $250,000 by Francis to follow in Snoop Dogg’s footsteps & be the next Girls Gone Wild host.
“There’s a little Girls Gone Wild in every woman and this should be embraced as a positive, not a negative,” Francis states of Antonella.
“Antonella Barba is an unbelievably sexy girl who obviously knows how to have a good time. Why are people being ridiculed and punished for being sexual? It’s ridiculous,” good ole Francis goes on to say.
As of yet, the FOX network has not commented on Joe’s somewhat handsome offer. Though I doubt if Antonella even comes close to this offer, FOX will be about done with this sexy singer.

Posted by Allison as American Idol, Awards & Accolades, Jennifer Hudson at 11:00 AM UTC on Mar, 07 2007
So, my question has finally been answered. How to you get the city of Chicago to name a day after you? Apparently you have to lose at “American Idol”, but star in an Oscar-winning movie to get your own day & that’s just what new star Jennifer Hudson was able to do.
Oscar winner Hudson went back home to Chicago Tuesday where Mayor Richard Daley named March 6 Jennifer Hudson Day. I wonder if she got the key to the city….. Earlier on Tuesday Hudson visited her alma mater, Dunbar Vocational Career Academy, where she told the students, “If you can see it, you can achieve it. Don’t let anybody tell you what you can or cannot do.”
Good advice, if you’ve got a killer voice that is. Looking forward to celebrating Jennifer Hudson Day next year, wonder what we should do…….
Posted by Allison as American Idol, Mischief & Mayhem, Paula Abdul at 12:30 PM UTC on Feb, 15 2007
Â
Come on, Paula. We know what the 80s were like & you certainly were no stranger to partying. Paula Adbul saying that she’s never been drunk or used recreational drugs is a mother saying she’s never had sex (except maybe for the Mary lady).Â
Abdul’s somewhat spacy behavior on “American Idol” has propmted all of us to wonder what the hell kind of good stuff is Paula on?!   But according to the 44-year-old judge, she’s never even touched alcohol or drugs.
“I’ve never been drunk. I have never done recreational drugs.”
“Just look at my 20-year career. Tell me someone who is into partying or doing drugs that could have done that.” Umm, Paula, the damn Rolling Stones come to mind, right? And perhaps Sting, Allman Brothers, Dave Matthews & David Bowie, just to name a few.
“There have been 100 million lies about me,” Abdul reveals. Paula claims that she’s been taking  prescription medication for her “inflammatory arthritis”, which more than likely translates to “inflammatory drinking binge”.
“I’m squeaky clean. I’ve worked my ass off my entire life. (But) being involved in the show causes people to question everything,” Abdul states.
Well, she does push a convincing case, not!
What do you think- Is Paula Abdul a lying junkie or just misunderstood?
