How could you exploit people private lives on the intranet, make a joke out of it, and then completely embarrass them? How would you feel if somebody did that to you? You are taking all the fun out of the show, thinking that everybody is bad and awful, and should be off the show. Can't you have fun watching the show, and listening to the songs? You should really be ashamed for what you are doing, and you should be put in a psych ward because apparently, YOU FIND IT $%$#@!& ENTERTAINING TO SEE PEOPLE BE EMBARRASSED AND MADE FUN OF!!!! THAT IS SICK AND DISTURBING. I HOPE YOU WILL STOP THIS AWFULNESS, OR YOU WILL SUFFER SOME SERIUS REGRET!!!!  (PS: AMANDA OVERMYER IS GOOD!!! IT SHOULD BE KRISTY LEE COOK WITH THE STUPID CARTOON AND THE RETARDED WORDING!!!)

Ok, so I have a couple of things to say about your asinine website.  Who are you to ruin an obviously talented person's dream?  Do you people not have anything better to do with your time?  Are you no talent ass clowns jealous of those who can actually sing?  I sincerely hope that AI finds a way to shut down your waste of a website.  Maybe those who are running votefortheworst.com are pissed off American Idol rejects...I don't know.  All I know is this site pisses me and a whole lot of other Americans off.  My husband is currently fighting in Iraq so that fucking losers like you can keep your right to freedom of speech.  Don't ruin the dreams of others just because your lives are going absolutely NOWHERE.  Get a fucking life, and leave the destinies of the AI contestants to the true fans, and people who have an ear for music.  Everyone knows that Kristy deserved to be voted off this week.  Her rendition of Eight Days a Week sounded like a karaoke contest at the local country fair.  It was so bad that when they had her sing again last night, I had to change the channel.  It was literally PAINFUL to listen to.  Just know that what goes around comes around, and someday you will get yours.  Karma is a bitch, and what you've done will come back and bite you in the ass....HARD.  Get a life, go to hell, or at least just go away.  FUCK YOU

-M. Cruz

Although I think the Asia chic ran a close race (to amanda overmeyer) in the annoying arena, thank you thank you for helping her to evacuate early!  Anybody who refuses to pronounce the first letter of intermittent words needs to go, and that chic sucked balls.
-Lora

You are the greatest organization i've ever seen. Good job ruining a show that's been downhill for a few seasons. It's just getting sad - I mean, the entire point of the auditions is to make fun of people who obviously have some sort of problem.  I'm supporting your cause, because i think it's just a vanity stunt. Well, thank you for starting something that needed to be done. I support you!
-Ian

I really, really, fricken hope you put this in your "mail bag." I have a few words to say to you guys, and it's not gonna be pretty. YOU GUYS ARE SO FUCKING RETARDED!!!! Is this what America has turned into???? Seriously!!! We're out to get each other now or something???  Let me tell you, you've just ruined the IQ of millions of Americans, including me!!! Why the hell did I visit this fricking site??? And people who vote for the worst, you're terrible people! VFTW probably won't put my comment in their so-called "mail bag" but I hope this is a message they take into their minds .... Doubtful they will. They must be some of the dumbest people in all the universe, dumber than dogs to have made this site. Wow, go fuck a donkey or something rather than entertaining yourself by ruining people's lives.
-Cody

I don't understand all the Carly Smithson hating on this website! Clearly, the producers and record industry realize that the American public simply got it wrong when they rejected her the first time as Carly Hennessy. Are you suggesting they didn't know what they were doing when they invested $2.2 million dollars on her album? You would have us believe that they pissed away all that money for nothing. How absurd. No, they're perfectly entitled to keep shoving her down our throats until we get it right and make her the star she deserves to be. If you resist now, we'll simply keep seeing her again, maybe on "Dancing with the Bartenders" or "America's Next Top Singing Tattoo Artist," until you surrender and join the universe of Carly. Besides, as Carly herself has explained, her inevitable march to the top was brutally interrupted by the murderous attacks of 9/11. If you hold Carly down now, the terrorists win! Is that what you'd like? Let's stick it to Osama by making Carly the next American Idol!

Why do you people censure comments, I have been reading the comments & whenever somebody makes a comment about Daniel or David regarding them being gay, you delete the persons comment. The comments were not that bad. And what about freedom of speech ? Saying a guy is a fruit or a flamer is not bad...calling him a fag is bad, but I didn't read that ? So why did you cut these people off. ? Is the guy who started this site gay or something. ?
Steve

You guys suck. My bawls. Kisses,
-Tony

I think that it is stupid that David got kicked off... Just because me may be gay and was stripper at a guys gay bar... that does not mean he is actually gay..... Girls strip for girls does that make them lesbians??????? NO!!!!! So David should not have been kicked off just because he was making money working at a gay bar!!!!!!!!!!!!! THAT IS BULL SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-Laura

I love VFTW, and you have to keep supporting Amanda.  I actually like Amanda.  LOL.  She's always in a bad mood and totally unwilling to go along with all of the American Idol promotion crap.  That's my kind of American Idol - one with a permanent scowl on their face.  Whoo hoo!!  I'm so upset Danny is gone - between Danny and Amanda, we could have had one PISSED OFF American Idol.  Perfect! Oh well.  Judging from the mail that you get, I guess most people are content with performers who cry, practically beg for approval from King Simon, were previously flopped performers looking for a second chance or karaoke singers. My only hope is that one week Amanda takes to the stage with a bottle of SoCo in hand and a heroin filled syringe hanging out of her arm, Janis style.

This might get read I suppose, but I'm pretty sure this won't get on the main page, and do you know why? Because it's not some screaming spew of insults and hatred like most of the e-mails you guys get and put on the site. And I get that you know. I understand you want to be entertaining, thats why you show off those gems. And it is entertaining to an extent. Everybody gets it. You piss off millions of preteen girls because they think you have had a hand in getting their favorite contestent voted off. Kind of funny when you realize that those little brats are most likely gonna forget whoever they wanted to win when that same person releases some paldrey poppy music single, which ends up selling like shit. DO they support the contestent then? No, becuase they are already crushing on some other long haired douche on next years idol. Like you can probably tell, I'm not the biggest fan of the show, but ironicly, I watch all the episodes. I really don't know why. I guess its the thing to do. But back to the reason i'm sending this. I kind of had a weird respect for you guys. You're really just trying to make the show entertaining I suppose, and thats good, but I really think you guys are too hard on everybody. I mean, every single review of the singers in worse than a Simon Cowell spout off. I agree a lot of the time they suck, but man, lay off sometimes. But again I know why you do it, to be entertaining. I get it. But sometimes it just seems so fake. And if i'm not mistaken, your site tries to promote the truth. So it seems kind of sad to think of a site so against hypocracy seeming to be so hypocritical. And if that isn't the case.....man, you people need to lower your standards for what is good or not. Also I think its really just kind of mean how you harp on people about things. Like the whole David Hernandez stripper thing. Honestly, who gives a fuck about that? and do you really expect him to talk about it? I'd want to put it behind me too. Ok. So thanks for skipping over this e-mail, and to sum it up, I understand the point of the siite, and keep it up, but I also think you guys are almost as fake as David Archuleta's "well...gosh!" attitude. Thanks again!
-Trevor

Dave, let me just say you are my freakin hero!! I've been a loyal fan of VFTW for years now.  Without fail, your "Dave's False Idols" blog not only has me embarassingly cackling in front of my computer, but it's always dead-on as to my own opinions of the performances from the night before.
From the title of your last post alone the "pizza bistro" thing was HILARIOUS cuz I was thinking the exact same thing!  The same with your comments on everyone else, especially Ramiele, Brooke and Jason Castro. 
I gotta tell ya, I really can't stand this season of Idol. I mean it's a given that it gets worse with every year, but there's usually at least 1 person who's talented enough to keep you watching and at least 1 who's bad but in a way that's entertaining enough to keep you watching.  This year has none of that.  And to top it all off, there's no eye candy for us either!!  Can't they all just lose this year?!?
Tell me what your numbers are cuz somehow someway I gotta vote for you instead.  Your gonna be the only thing keepin me watching this Tuesday night train wreck...
-Jeff

VFTW is an absolutely brilliant site and I’m pleased someone had the smarts and mettle to produce it. VFTW turns the tables on reality television by questioning its very premise and hurling it back into American Idol’s face and hopefully throwing AI on its arse. It is clear that AI has nothing to do about fairness or talent and everything to do about entertainment and profit, otherwise we would be witnessing a much higher calibre of talent on stage. I have read so many accounts about talented people being turned away at auditions by the producers without even getting to perform for the judges, while undoubtedly talentless schmucks go on to perform in front of Paula, Randy and Simon and the cameras (for all of America to poke fun at).
Don’t you die hard VFTW haters ever question why this happens? Instead of wasting you time (and tears!) on cursing out VFTW, use your logic to understand that American Idol is not all about truth and fairness, it is about entertaining the masses with a mix of talent and train wrecks. Good or bad, talented or not, we know full well that entertainment comes in all shapes and sizes and that you certainly do not need talent to land on television or American Idol. I do fancy watching AI, its fun to watch, but in no way is it representative of America’s talent pool. I feel very sorry for the finalists who have no business being onstage (Amanda, Michael, Jason, Kristy) because they are being used for shits and giggles (think Kevin, Ace, John Stevens, Anthony, Scott, Sanjaya) by AI and were never meant to win since AI undoubtedly has a clear idea of who they want to win from the get-go. Yes, those people are talented, but seriously, they are not deep in capabilities and should never have been voted trough.
So let’s turn the game around on AI by voting the least able through and maybe they will think twice about putting through less talented singers as a source of entertainment and focus on individuals with real talent, regardless of whether or not they are marketable.
