HaHaHaHaHaHaHa!!!!

If that's his hometown FOX affiliates best reporting on the "controversy", he's fucked. They didn't seem all that enthusiastic about defending him. The anchors on FOX in the Charlotte, NC area would defend a Carolinian on AI with their dying breath. And how is this "controversial". Its macabre, sick and twisted anyway you look at it The only way out of this for him is to outright quit AI &; join a monastary now.

in my opinion he already went way too far when his friend held a picture of his dead wife up to cameras when he got into the top 13....his wife must be rolling over in her grave.

Hello...longtime lurker, first time poster.

I'm in the USA, but i'm a huge fan of the British TV series "Skins," Season 3 of which is currently airing in the UK (and will eventually air on BBCAmerica, who've already shown Seasons 1 &; 2). I'm watching the current season online, and I couldn't help being reminded of a certain Idol contestant during Episode 5, which aired about 3 weeks ago:

Episode 5/10 Freddie

Freddie is nothing like his extrovert older sister Karen. While Karen has reached the finals of a TV talent show, Freddie hates the celebrity game. To make matters worse, the rest of his family have made up a story about their dead mother to get Karen the sympathy vote and hopefully increase her chances of winning. Disgusted by the whole affair, Freddie retreats to his shed, where he is roused from his gloomy mood by the arrival of Effy. (Radio Times)

The fictional reality show in the episode is obviously more akin to The Pussycat Dolls Search For The Next Doll than American Idol, but it's a great parody that shows how ridiculously cliched the whole sympathy vote thing has gotten.

I'm not implying Gokey made anything up...but I still can't stand him. And not surprisingly, the character in Skins is a million times more entertaining. Link to evidence below.

So was Jamar simply trying to help...or...(I hope he is still allowed to appear in church tomorrow, as he was scheduled)?

Wondering if Seacrest will do damage control come Tuesday evening.

This crap just keeps getting more and more bizarre.

Scott Macintyre (sp) doesn't mention his blindness and hold up pictures of his eyeballs every chance he gets.

Nor did he mention he has someone else's kidney.

alot of us have lost loved ones, most of us only talk about it to the few loved ones still around... not a camera crew... he's a scumbag pure and simple!

Why does the guy from the LA Times look like he doesn't shower?
