If you didn't hear, the show's most entertaining contestant, Sanjaya Malakar, was "voted" off...only making the Top 7. I put "voted" in quotes because I think it was completely rigged. Sanjaya had all sorts of press for being the worst contestant on the show, with a whole army of people voting for him to move ahead. Howard Stern backed Sanjaya up by supporting the website, www.votefortheworst.com, in the hopes that it would end American Idol. And right in the peak of Sanjaya's hype...he gets cut. RIGGED! American Idol was getting lots of negative press for Sanjaya's success, saying that if he were to win, the show would be considered a sham. They clearly cut him despite his vote count. Time to change the name of the show from American Idol to Fox Network Idol.
Thanks, Sanjaya, for the laughs. We'll miss your weird hairstyles and creepy smiles.
