VFTW Confronts Michael Johns About His Negative Comments Toward Sanjaya
Michael Johns Takes a Shot at Sanjaya
The Aussie song-stealing douche, one of our least favorite contestants this season, decided to take a different approach to his exit interviews. Instead of being classy like Amanda Overmyer or pathetic like David Hernandez, he just pulled a Carly Smithson and insulted VFTW's favorite papaya Sanjaya. In an E! Online interview, Michael said, "There was no laughingstock. There were no jokers...They wanted it to be a singing competition instead of a TV show with the controversy of Sanjaya." First off, Sanjaya was not a laughingstock. He was awesome. Secondly, almost all of the contestants this year are too boring to inspire any kind of emotion. I mean who feels one way or another about Syesha? Michael was also going to sing "Vision of Love" next week on American Idol. On second thought, that would have been hilariously bad. Can we vote him back just for one week?
Michael Johns is Eliminated, VFTW Victory!
Michael Johns is eliminated. The only thing funnier would have been Carly's swan song. The open mouthed friend in the audience was pretty hilarious. Bye bye Aussie douche bag. "Last year for Idol Gives Back, no one left us. This year, Michael... it's the end of the road." Awesome. Always good to make Paula cry. Continue to victory, Kristy!

The Truth About the Contestants of American Idol 7
When American Idol debuted in 2002, its supposed goal was to find the best undiscovered talent in America. Singers like Kelly Clarkson and Clay Aiken, who had dreams of stardom but never had the connections, were catapulted to megastardom. The producers found diamonds in the rough and launched their careers. But a disturbing trend has surfaced with the spoiled contestants of American Idol 7 – they’re no longer even remotely undiscovered talent. A large percentage of them are failed singers and entertainers who have already had their shot at fame. Yet Idol thinks that repackaging these failures is a good idea to make us watch their show. Gone are the days where you or your friends could try out for Idol and make it big. Now you have to already have connections. Read on to find out more about how this year’s show will just be a boring hash of recycled pseudo-celebrities who weren’t good enough to make it the first time around. And keep checking back as this article is updated almost every day with new information.

VFTW's own Brooklyn brought her camera to visit Michael Johns and ask him why he was such a douche to Sanjaya. Then Michael pretends as if he called Sanjaya a "genius." No you didn't, Michael. Stop taking the Carly route and lying to look better. The best part of the video is when Brooklyn says, "So how does it feel to be eliminated before Sanjaya?" and Michael suddenly looks like, "Wait? Someone doesn't like me?" VFTW victory!
