Danny Noriega Was Not Invited to the American Idol Finale

Danny Noriega did a webchat where he let his fans know that he was not invited to the American Idol finale this year. You know, the show he was on. Not only that, he had to track down people to get tickets, only to be told the show was full. Fellow semifinalists Colton Berry and Kady Malloy were also dissed as well. Idol, seriously. What the fuck? Give Danny a ticket to the show. Pulling crap like this just makes people hate you even more. To deny him a ticket is pretty low, but then again, we should expect this from Idol by now. Video highlight: Danny says Idol is full of shit. We know, Danny. We know.

I'm sorry Danny that you've been treated this way! You and your sweet unique self deserve more than what "Idol" has given you. We're on YOUR side as well as Colten and Kady. The people here at VFTW knows the "true" A.I. and you don't have to worry about whether people support you or not. Come join us here in the "Dark Side"! :)

And you're right, the rest of the top 24 as EVERY RIGHT IN THE WORLD to join the other finalists in the finale! At the very least get invited to the "blessed event". What better way would it be than the other 12 semi-finalists to show off their talents in the grand finale?? They were involved with the show too! What are the "Powers That Be" are so afraid of? That the rest semi-finalists will "out shine" the final 2? HA! That'll be a laugh!

**One of the other changes the execs should also consider is let the WHOLE 24 get involved with the finale! I'm not saying for the whole show, maybe a song or two as a group. Just to remind the rest of us that "they're here" and that they're working hard on their dream as well.**

It's not right and not fair, this whole thing SUCKS the way it's all panning out!!!

*sigh* I wish I could say this was surprising, but it really isn't because Fox and Freemantle and Idol all hate the gays. This is why they will not give Danny a ticket, they are afraid that a sassy queen on TV will somehow convert viewers into homosexuality (I know that's how it happened to me, I would have been straight except for that time I saw that "Sesame Street" program and they had the loopy orange guy and the uptight anal yellow guy with the unibrow living together and suddenly I went all gay gay gay gay gay) so they will bar him at all costs (although RYAN keeps getting more and more into shoving himself out of his closet this season with the way he notices french pedicures on people and calls Simon his "boo", you'd think he would have gotten a stern talking to by now).

Anyhow, I think it's terrible that they will pull this kind of crap on Danny, and Idol just sucks that much harder for being so hypocritical and stupid (and they call US "mean-spirited"... HA!)

love, J-Mo :)

It's not that I don't like Danny, because I do and thought he was entertaining, but I honestly don't think he did anything to bring in the ratings. I don't think Idol owes anyone anything; in fact, it's the other way around. If not for them, they would still be a "nobody" so these people need to really stop their complaining. Anyways, did he even win that poll? Probably not

The top 24 should be invited to the finale.

I don't even love to hate the AI machine anymore. I just hate it.

Hang on Mom, this is important!

He's hilarious. I still think him and Christian Soriano (Project Runway) should get their own reality show.

Danny, please you SO curse all the time! But you're right - they have no right to deny you access to the finale. That's bullshit!

LOL.
That's odd considering I got an email at 7:30PST yesterday saying I could get tickets for the show. I have 5 extra tickets Danny, if you'd like to be my guest.

The other thing is, the Nokia has 7,000 seats. I found it hard to believe its full. Bump schmoes like me.

That is so fucked up! I also agree that the Top 24 should be performing at least one song at the finale. Otherwise why even have a Top 24? I feel for ya Danny! AI sucks!

He didn't win the poll on AmericanIdol.com, but he placed higher than many top 12 finalists on it.

I love this video of Danny.
