Sites like yours and others who out people make me sick.  Is it so important to you that every potential gay person be outted?  Can't people just let others live their lives even if they are celebraties?  Give it a rest and move on with your lives.  It quite obvious you don't have one becuase you continually decided to try and ruin eveyrone elses by living through theirs.

RE: David Hernandez and his American Idol dreams Seriously, who gives a flying fuck whether or not he was a stripper in a gay club or is even gay.  I’m a gay male.  I could care fucking less.  It’s his business, his life and if he doesn’t feel like telling everyone in the world that he stripped then BIG FUCKING DEAL. Do you losers and others who go to your site really feel that this is NEWS that the world needs to know? It’s pathetic that in this day and age where the real news of importance (an election for a replacement of that fucktard in the White House) that you folks chose to focus on berating an individual just because of the line of work he chose to take to make a buck in this economy. Jesus Tap Dancing Christ! Get a fucking life!

David Hernandez is GAY, he used to work at Dick's Cabaret with his Boyfriend Shea (who is adorable).  Love you Shea!  David is a complete jerk to his boyfriend and is one cocky SOB.  He seems all sweet on tv, but don't believe it guys, he is a real jerk.  He worked at BURN (lousy club) as a server.  Then he went to work at BS west in Scottdale, AZ where he was server on Wednesday nights (2-4-1 drinks).  My personal experience with him, he can be real nice to your face when he wants something, but also gets upset when he doesn't get his way.  At Dick's cabaret he was mad because my friends and I wouldn't buy a lap dance from him, and said "I'm the hottest mother F'er in here, and you don't wan to see my dick".   Talk about crude!  We all had a fund raiser for him one night at BS so we could send him on his way to San Diego.  I did not contribute. Even though all this is true, there is another thing I'd like to say...he sure can sing!  American Idol, is a singing competition and he should be judged fairly.  There JERK!  I said something nice abou you!

i just wanted to let you know how awesome your site is. last year was the year of all years for vftw (: SANJAYA IS MY HERO <3 my friends and i were so obsessed with him. we would talk about him every day in class just to make my teacher mad. i even went to build-a-bear and made a sanjaya bear. i got a wig and made a faux-hawk and everything. i gave it to my friend for her birthday. she just started cracking up when i gave it to her. we made a litttle sanjaya club and everyone in my classes thought we were so weird. we even tried making my friends hair into a faux-hawk just like sanjaya. (then my substitute teacher called him hot...that was weird) i'm SO going to vote for danny and amanda this year (: peace; love; and sanjaya <3

You certainly show your small mindedness when you encourage others to ruin a show for the masses. Must make you feel great eh? Everyone’s entitled to vote and I don’t begrudge your doing it this way….just shows me that we have a world of hateful, small minded people who want to ruin things for others….suspect I’ll see your name in the news some day as just another loser. I’ll bet you couldn’t even make any of these shows….

-Dickie

Yeah...... This is funny, unless your the person that is loosing. I'm not a huge fan of the show, but I do like to see people that have dreams and work hard to achieve them get a fair shot at winning.. With the vote last week, I was shocked, then I heard about this web site.  It seems your having an effect. Too bad.

-Celene

There are a few very talented young hopefuls on American Idol that deserve an opportunity to get a break in the music business.  I think it is a disgrace that you jeopardize their future to fulfill your twisted objective to keep the worst, most entertaining personalities on the show.  Last night your antics cost Alexandrea Lushington and Alaina Whitaker the chance to continue in the competition and have a chance for a recording career.  These girls are only 17 and 16 years old, respectively.  It is disgusting to me that your little game is costing them their dreams.  Shame on you!!!! VFTW does suck!!!!

Am a HUGE fan of your site. We get AI a day after US broadcast here in the UK, so I love to follow the contestants and your “picks”. Shame I can’t vote though. Anyway, I would love your site to cover The X-Factor in the UK. We get a load of baaad acts every year, and I mean painfully bad, and they make Sanjaya look like Pavarotti. X-Factor starts in the Summer, and the episodes are available to download the day after pr stream from itv.com. Our judges are known over in the US as well. We have Sharon Osbourne, who has been on since series 1, Louis Walsh (band manager), Dannii Minogue (Kylies sister) and Simon Cowell of course. The format is slightly different to AI, each judge mentors 3 acts, with each judges acts falling into a group, which is 14 – 24 boys, 14 – 24 girls, all over 24 and groups. Your site could be huge over here, as in the UK, we always see the fun in reality shows, can laugh at ourselves, we see the acts blatantly put through to the live shows by producers for all the wrong reasons, and would definitely get behind a vote for the worst campaign.

-Gavin

I know and understand the concept of your website but for Gods sake do not try to save Amanda.  She is without a doubt the creepiest person I have ever seen and a truly awful singer to boot. I am so sick of Paula telling her that she is “the real deal” and of Amanda trying to channel Janis Joplin that I could cut both of their tongues out.  There are others on the show who suck and are worthy of being saved by your viewers so please, please let Amanda go.

-Larry

okay, really.  i love you guys and i think the site is awesome.  but, here is the thing, everytime amanda sings my skin starts to crawl. tingly, itchy, horrible screeching!  please please please make it stop!!! yeah, i know, it is vote for the worst, but isn't that annoying danny kid enough? just thought i'd ask! :0)

I am a viewer of the show American Idol.I am not ashamed to admit it either.It is my understanding that Votefortheworst.com was developed by a first year contestant that did not have enough talent to make the cut.Why is it that Americans who want to make something of their lives have to pay for your lack of talent and self-esteem?My one wish is that you and the other whiners would develop carpal tunnel and therefore,lack the ability to type.I believe, that most Americans are sick to death of the jealous no-talent babies that comprise the minority vote of the non-entertaining website developed by a no-name talentless moron.I implore you to drop the self-righteous act and look within yourselves and admit what the real issue is with your bitterness toward American Idol.The true issue is that you are jealous and unsatisfied with your own lives and you want others to be as miserable as you.Instead of, tearing down those who wish to succeed we should be praising them for their efforts.The more success stories we have in this country the more our children have to look to and can aspire to become.Please, for everyone's sake drop the bitterness and let the rest of the world enjoy the entertainment that is American Idol.Thank you

Ya know if you all hate American Idol SO much, why not just ignore it? That's how my family does it. Let AMERICA decide who goes and who stays, not some group. If you hate singer so much just mute the TV. I'm not going to lie, I am angry, Alaina has a good voice, and possibly a good future career in singing, but that was no reason to vote for people who do not deserve to be on idol at all just to knock off the people who have a shot at winning and becoming somebody. Honestly, I just want to know why.

-Levi

Thank you so much for providing all the extra votes for Amanda.  I love her stage presence and her amazing voice.  She is a true rocker and definitely deserves to stay.  Your stupid little game is finally helping some members of American Idol. Obviously this year the contestants are chocked full of talent and there really was no bad contender.  Looks like you've run out of contestants that idol producers would hate to see win......as Amanda will definitely rake in the bucks!  Just the fact that you couldn't even figure out who to put up there until nearly time for the show to start has to say something.  Thanks again dumbass!

-Tami

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.

I adore this site. The show sucks, the premise sucks and the talent sucks. The hell with Idol and all of the lemmings who are too damn stupid to think for themselves and seek out relevant music. Who the hell cares who watches the show? Let me tell you, the sponsors do so they can ram more useless crap down the throats of people (I use the term loosely) who actually think the show is good and worthy of their time. Dear viewers of Idol, I know of a few proctologists who can assist you in getting your heads out of your asses and perhaps, just perhaps, you may begin to see through the bullshit, the over-the-top theatrics, C and D talent and all of the other "circuses" that make American Idol the worst network television show in decades.

-Someone who thinks network TV sucks

It's not that your Website bothers me at all, I could care less what you do in your spare time. But you kind of contradict yourself constantly from what little I've read, and you seem to have double standards when it comes to the show. A couple of examples. You constantly say it doesn't matter what the judges say or who people vote for because the producers pick who will stay and who will go on American Idol. Okay, I would agree with that. Then what's the point of your Website? Voting is futile and doesn't matter. Which means that the Producers, not VFTW kept Sanjaya around last year. Why? Because it kept people watching. Not because of some effort on your part. All you do is run up phone bills for 40-something guys who think they are really "screwing up" the results by text messaging their vote each week. Not that I care, but it is a contradiction. You constantly claim that the show is rigged and run by the producers, so voting is really just a waste of time. Another example. You blast American Idol for their cheap script and over-the-top theatrics to sway potential voters and "sheep" I think you call them. In other words, they tell people what they should hear without giving both sides. Yet, on your very Website, if you register to be a user, you can't post comments about your blogs unless you have some "special" privileges. I guess only people that agree with your point get to post comments, while others are put in the evil "Mail Bag" nut-job category. Of course, as I'm typing this, you've gotten less than 15 comments after a big show, so what difference does it really make. Not that I'm a fan of American Idol, I'm not. You just seem to contradict a lot of your own blog posts. Tell people who you think is the worst and encourage them not to vote so they don't line the coffers of their cell phone company. Why is it you think this Website has any impact on the outcome when you say yourself that it's all planned out before the show ever starts? Just wondering.
