-Mark
I don't get it. Why do you redicule someone and ruin their reputation just because you bunch of lifeless nerds think that a contestant is a little pitchy? I have no idea why such cruel people would want to treat people this way. It makes no sense. And plus, even if they're bad, get them off the show! Don't just keep them on to torture people! This is where I state my point. When Sanjaya (suckish freak) stayed on the show because of VFTW, I nearly screamed. I hated it from then on.
I pretty much know who pathetic site is run by: 3 lifeless, nerdy losers who could get a date on Saturday, so decided to spend their weekend ridiculing other people to take out the bullying being put on you because of your pathetic lives. If you're not these people, TOO BAD! This is probably what the world views you as from what you've done.
I'll just state my point clearly and say: GO ROT IN A WELL!
-Summer
Do you jerk off to these emails that you get knocking your asses? You must, because being hated obviously turns you on. You are losers. Have fun.
-Julie
I cant believe you people haven't pulled off an actual VTFW Victory, I love how that is said when a contestant stays for another week. How about you guys and girls all pull together and actually get someone to win american idol? You know, something that could be considered a real VFTW Victory? Im not into VFTW, I dont even feel that voting at all is even worth it.... how bad is that? The people who suck arent even worth a vote!
-Robert

-Dalton
YOU GUYS NEED TO WAKE UP AND REALIZE THAT SANJAYA IS THE WORST SINGERS AND HE IS A DISGUST TO THE AMERICAN IDOL TRADITION. IF YOU THINK HE IS GOING TO BE THE NEXT AMERICAN IDOL YOU GUYS NEED TO BUY SOME NEW HEARING AIDS BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY YOURS ARE DEAD OR BROKEN. HE IS A DISGRACE TO THE MOST POPULAR SHOW ALL OVER THE WORLD. MAYBE YOU SHOULD GIVE HIM SOME SINGING LESSONS IN ALL THE SPARE TIME YOU HAVE. YOU CAN ALSO START YOUR OWN SHOW TO VOTE FOR THE WORST SINGER AROUND. YOU ARE DEPRIVING SOME VERY GOOD SINGERS THAT HAVE TALENT THE CHANCE FOR A CAREER.
-Rick
In my opinion, VFTW is a good site. I go on your site every week to see your updates and videos, and I always laugh out loud. I especially love your doodles of the idols and what is written under Kristy Lee Cook's doodles right now.
I don't know why so many people think VFTW is a bad site. What's wrong with doing something for the bad guys instead of always being good? I say, nothing is wrong with it. Root for the other team once in a while, jeez.
There are two sides to every story right? You could look at your site as crushing the dreams of the good guys, or you could look at it like I do, Helping the bad guys pursue their dreams. It's just a show, anyway.
I only discovered VFTW this year, during the American Idol season. Maybe when Canadian Idol rolls around, my liking of this site will change, me being a canadian and all.
Anyway, I just wanted to say, you have at least one canadian backing you up. I wish Danny and Amanda could've gone further. They were so funny and so hilariously annoying.
-Nikki
You ruined American Idol for me. I’m not even watching this year. To keep from having singers who would tank they brought in the ringers who already had experience. Your picks go home... Now... you have ruined it for yourself too. Get a life.
-Lynda
Hey guys, just wanted to comment on your little site here. So basically, some American Idol rejects got together to sabotage and insult the contestants that got further than they did. No, you didn't get rejected because it's rigged, or a scam, you got rejected because you aren't talented, you aren't an idol. So you got rejected, and threw a tantrum. Then, with your premature mind, you decided to make a site to get back at American Idol for this. It's funny how I'm 15 years old, and I have more sense than all of you. I don't care if you vote for the worst, but it's funny how adults will make fun of people they don't even know, and post it on the internet. Aren't you better than that? You know, they might actually go to this site, they might see what you wrote, it might hurt someone's feelings, but do you care? No. You want to be popular, and by hating on a TV show that rejects untalented idiots who think they actually have something special inside them, you get popular. Yeah, you're totally real. All the rejects from American Idol fill your forums. Congratulations! That's one fun forum you got! A bunch of people complaining about how Simon said they couldn't sing! Yeah, he should go back to England! He's not American! Get him off the show! Am I right? Anyways, one question: if you hate the show so much, why don't you just stop watching it? I know you have the TV and/or computer on at all hours of the day, but maybe try turning it off one time? The silence might actually soothe you, maybe then you won't be so full of anger.
-Ellen
I'm not sure who owns the website http://www.votefortheworst.com and I don't really care. I know you've probably read this one too many times but telling you again but actually add up to make your cold hearts realize that you aren't playing a game. American Idol means the world to so many people. Your little game in your head is making inconsiderate and inane people like you [guys] vote for singers taht don't belong there. Ramiele wasn't the best but she sang very well. Her song choices were not very good but she had to get eliminated before Jason Castro, Kristy Lee Cook, and Syesha Mercado because you guys are playing games. If you think about it, you should feel really guilty. The games you are playing is costing somebody else trouble and a lifetime of oppurtunities. I'm sorry, but I'm can't even begin to fathom how a person would act like in real life if they acted like you did. I suggest you all think about what you are doing. Time doesn't reverse itself. I'm not using derogatory terms because it may not even be your fault. Ramiele already lost her spot on American Idol. She was my favorite contestant but because of people like you, the show can't even be based on truth. I'd also like to bring up Sanjaya Malakar. Not only did you guys (again, may not be entirely your fault) affect the contestants that season and their possibility of stardom, you affected him. Now he is a mockery and is looked down upon. I feel really bad for him. Contestants with potential such as Ramiele, Amanda Overmeyer, and even Sanjaya, unfortunately suffer because of your heartless deeds.

2 WORDS FOR VFTW: IDIOTIC LOSERS. VFTW- A place where some losers put together an amateur site purely for the reason that they either a) have nothing better to do in their simply sad life since they are obviously losers with no life. b) Don't have a talent for themselves, so entertain themselves by trashing and/or desperately seeking attention by ruining a show. Guess what idiots: American Idol is the most popular show on TV. It is not easily expected by a group of wannabe creeps who sit around on their stupid butts all day trashing people. By the way, here's an idea, VFTW: If you don't like the show, don't watch it. Is that so hard? Your plan has not sabotaged the show. Danny left, Amanda left, and Kristy Lee is about to. There was one thing that they all have in common: No talent. Do y'all seriously have nothing better to do with your wasted lives than trash people who actually have talent, unlike you. If American Idol is so popular, how many people actually vote with you anyway? About 500 people out of the 36 million vote alongside you. And if they do vote for someone who you display on your stupid site, it's not for the reasons you vote for them. You guys were a major conversation topic for about a month and then you died. Your not making any impact on the show, whatsoever. Why torture the millions of fans who would love to see a talent win the show purely for the self-ish reason you losers want to, instead of ignoring the show, make an over-rated attempt to destroy the show. The bottom line is no one cares what losers with no life think (i.e. YOU), so you might as well stop wasting your life trashing people who have worked hard and have talent because no one wants to here any comments from idiots. In the end, it will come down to the most talented people, who the majority voted for, not what the few freaks thought about Danny Noriega being, in the least bit, talented or deserving to win the show and you will be left trying to make fools out of clearly hard-working people. America doesn't admire you, think you are cool, or whatever impact you are trying to make on America isn't working. So, do America a favor (in case, you don't know that something you do out of kindness of your heart....which is probably black. You know, something you DON'T DO PURELY FOR YOURSELF) and stop trying to be funny.
P.S. Go die in a log VFTW. You suck!
-Shelby
I love your site and I personally agree with everything. This site always makes me laugh-no matter how tired or sad I am. Thanks for this amazing site!
-Randy
$10 fee per entry for the songwriting competition..... Let me ask... who reviews all the entries to see which one's are worthy to be voted on?? Who has to do that job and where do they do it? How many people spend a few weeks going over the 25,000 entries?? It takes people, and accounting for their labor & facility costs is built into the fee charged.
I will give you the point that the song writing competition is looking for the best songs... and quite frankly, armatures will not win. They are looking for the best they can get, and if it comes from someone that is a professional... then so be-it. They have a TV show to run, and throwing a 4th grade song out for the world is stupid.
Also, the song picked last year was so lame that it didn't really go anywhere for Jordin, and she quickly separated herself from it after the tour was over. So doing this songwriting competition again is just stupid.
But anyways... you really are a douche, Dave.
-Allen
Hey folks,
I am a musician who lives in the same general area as Kristy Lee so I have been hearing all the local hoopla about her. I don't know her, never met her and honestly have never seen the American Idol Show.
I gotta tell you I love your website. and the premise behind it. Afriend told me about it when we were trying to figure out how Kristy kept getting saved each week.
Thanks for providing perspective on the American Idol Experience.
-Wally
Just wanted to thank you for helping to keep American Idol alive and well on TV. By having all the people vote for the worst you keep creating revenue for American Idol. Who wouldn't want to pay to advertise their product when they know there are 30 million votes from fans coming in. So I am sure American Idol producers are just loving your site and all the help (and money) you are providing them. Keep up the good work, keep promoting the show and keep having your website fans voting!
-Vince
I am a fan of American Idol. I understand that there are many people out there who are not fans of American Idol. I also know that a lot the people who make it through are not deserving of it. This is due partly to your site, but also to the materialism of our country. What I do not understand is why you have to be so negative. This site is full of negativity. Why not just promote voting for the best vocalist rather than the worst. Take a stand so that the one contestant, who really comes from nothing and has had no other opportunity besides American Idol, will have a chance to succeed and make us all proud. We all focus too much on looks. Maybe the girl or guy, who is different and not as pretty as the other contestants, has the best voice. I guess what I am saying is that you could do so much good with your website, but instead you are doing so much bad. I know you will probably not post this on your site, simply because I did not going into a long chain of expletives. I am sorry but you do not have to swear and be negative to get your point across. Thank you for your time.
-Danny
Hey just wanted to say great job on the site. I love the site!
I have one suggestion though. I say switch the vote for the worst pick from Kristy to Jason Castro. Or atleast after Kristy goes home. Please! Jason is terrible! He's awful! He's what vote for the worst pick needs to be! Lol, I just can't stand what he does, the same thing week after week after week.
Anyway continue being awesome!
-Jason
kristy lee cook is still in it so yay but in case of a disasterous next week & she goes home i would like to nominate jason castro here are a list of my reasons 1 he is not what the judges want they are pushing hard for brooke white & david 2 a stoner would be an amazing american idol (better than a blond IMO) 3 everytime he is on stage he cant talk or do any improv conversation 4 i think when he won the last show his face would be priceless 5 they keep pushing him to the back ( in the commericials & the group medley on results night) well there it is my reasons i feel jason castro should be the vote for the worst winner in case kristy lee cant save her horse
-Ashley
So...I was giving my office-mate "Brad" a hard time, cuz he' s a HUGE Kristy Lee Cook fan...or rather, he thinks she's "hot". Exactly what that has to do with her ability to sing is beyond me...must be a guy thing. Anyway, we were bantering back and forth about how she is not a very good singer or performer (yes, she is...no, she isn't...yes, she is...), and I started wondering aloud, "What is the name of that website? You know, the one that allows people to vote for the worst American Idol contestant? I'll bet you anything that if we pull up that website, Kristy will be the one featured." 30 seconds of "Goggling" later, and here I am...sweet, I was RIGHT! It just got strangely quiet over at "Brad's" desk...
Now, it goes against my nature to ridicule anyone publicly...but still...I've got to tell you...I COMPLETELY AGREE with your VFTW choice (sorry Kristy fans). I have watched American Idol off and on for the last several seasons, and to be honest I'm not very impressed with ANY of the contestants this season. While some have the potential to do alright in the music industry, this season feels "forced" to me. Seriously, is it just me, or do their voices sound "filtered" and "processed" during live performances? I'll tell you a secret...with enough electronic tweaking, anyone can sound halfway decent...and this season's contestant definitely sound "tweaked"...and only halfway decent.
Regardless of who wins, I don't see any of these finalists going on to become the next Carrie Underwood or Kelly Clarkson - not even close. I wish them success in their chosen field, but caution their fans not to hold their breath waiting for that to happen (with the amount of passing out that would ensue, the VFTW website would have a lot fewer, verbally colorful posts). My apologies if I don't make the raving lunatics who regularly post on this site happy, but they have no problems posting their rantings, so I should be allowed to post mine (though this hardly qualifies as a rant).
Finally, I would like to say a few words to anyone out in cyberspace who decides to send an IM, post a blog, write an email, respond to a comment, or start a website...
"Spell check" and "grammar check" were created for a reason. That being said, let the verbal assault begin...

We picked Sanjaya to be the next American Idol? Dammit, why didn't you guys let me know about that! I've been wasting my votes on KKK all this time.
Oh wait, Rick typed his mail in ALLCAPS so that makes him an idiot. Nevermind.

Go die in a log and rot in a well! I hate hate HATE you, VFTW! You silly toot-faces should go eat some dog farts from the bottom of a cup of said dog farts, because you losery loserheads are total losers!
I really really REALLY hope your site gets shut down by the law for being against the law, because it's illegal what you do all the time with your illegal, against the law law-breaking! You should stop breaking the law, because it's obviously illegal. Don't you get that? The Bible says obey the law of the land and do unto others as you would have them do you. Duh!!!
Also, you guys are really upset that you tried out for Idol and didn't make it. Simon must have called you guys total gaywads or something, and it scarred your fragile psyches for all eternity, causing you to be so filled with hate that you decided to ruin the dreams of other hard-working and TALENTED (something you will never be! OH SNAP!!!!!) people that are here because of their working hardness and their talentosity. Why don't you try singing in front of millions of people and see how you would like it if a website said you sucked? Oh, that won't happen, because you have no talent. You suck!
Also, what's up with all the cursing? I never heard Jesus say, "I'm the son of God, bitches!" That would've been not good at all! You should be more like Jesus and less like other guys who say things like "motherfucker" and "fuckstick" and "fuckerdoodle." Those are bad words that bad people say. Be good people. Say good words. Not "fuck" or "cunt" or "doody."
Peace be with you, pricktards!
Love,

P.S. I hate your website!

Mark- I'd respond, but I can't read you post. I have past a second grade education, so I know what words are supposed to look like, and that's not it!
Summer- How come if you don't like someone that makes you a "lifeless nerd who can't get a date on a Saturday night"? Are we a little upset the bar scene isn't getting you any, so you must project on others?
Julie- Oh, yeah, hate seriously turns me on. Every time Carlyplant stays or KKKristy turns in a decent performance I'm on my husband in no time flat.
Robert- It's a victory every time they stay because they're there another week. By all accounts, KKKristy should have been gone long ago. And look what happened. A "favorite" went home over "8 Days a Week"
Dalton- They have a "Vote for the Best" site- It's called AmericanIdol.com
Rick- My Sanjaya is still in the running? Oh, my goodness, I've been calling the wrong number! What's his number, I need to get voting!
Nikki- welcome, and we'll support in you the VFTW Canadian Idol attempts!
Lynda- We didn't ruin it for you. Fox put up the pieces of crud. We just picked the worst of the bunch.
Ellen- Not everyone who supports this site is an AI reject. I realize my strength isn't in singing, that's why I've never tried for AI. I don't want to wind up on the blooper reel. I'm not mad at AI because they wrecked my dreams by telling me I'm a bad singer. I'm mad because they're so obviously fake, even to an "outsider"
Damon- If AI is someone's life, how are we the "lifeless nerds" Summer says we are? I don't need to crowd around the TV every week to see a bunch of mediocre singers belt out songs that aren't right for them. And I'll say it now- if we are supposed to be able to vote for whoever we want, which is one of the great things about AI according to most letter writers, you can vote for who you want and who you think deserves it most, how is it my opinion is suddenly less valid because I think Sanjaya deserved to win?
Shelby- Don't insult my Chile! In case you didn't hear, she's already making a name for herself outside of AI, and will probably do as well, if not better, than the winner. Other than that, I've heard this letter 6 million times before. I LOVE YOU, AMANDA!!!!
Randy- Thank you, believer. Don't forget to vote!
Allen- They're pulling in millions in advertizing, they don't need $10 from fourth graders who are "trying to make their dreams come true". They're just trying to line the producer's pockets even more. And last year the song was hand-picked for Jordin, because it sure as shit didn't work for Blake, and she still managed to drive it into the ground before it became a hit.
Wally- Stick around a while. Put your feet up. You're welcome here.
Vince- While I'd love to think our site generates 30 million votes a week, in the real world we're not that influential. Now if all the tweens stopped voting for LizardLips, then AI might be going off the air...
Danny- I take back my previous "there's a vote for the best site, it's AI.com" statement. This show is a popularity contest. I could list many casualties of this, like Melinda Doolittle last year. No one votes for the best, they vote for the cutest, or the one who sings the songs they like, or who their friends like... Otherwise the "best" would change week to week and David A would have been on the chopping block the first Beatles week (though he would be safe due to "8 days a week")
Jason- Castro, is that you? I'm rooting for you!
Ashley- I agree with what you say, but capitals and punctuation next time, please.
Bec- A writer with a brain. Join us...

Do these letters really come in like this? Or are they edited or put through a filter to make the people seem even more stupid and illiterate? "Go rot in a well"? "Go die in a log"? Who SAYS things like that?
Oh, and that letter from "Rick" must have been lost in transit since 2007, since he apparently thinks Sanjaya is the current VFTW pick and still in the running to be the next American Idol...
DEAR MARK,SPELLCHECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OMG
