It's official: American Idol has become nothing but a pathetic freakshow. I say this not as a fan, but as an observer of the downward spiral AI is heading in. Well, I probably shouldn't have said that AI wasn't anything but a pathetic freakshow, it was always a mess to begin with. If it wasn't the screwball contestants, it was the money-shot feud between Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul. If it wasn't that, then it was the water cooler discussions ranging from, 'is Paula Abdul out of her fucking mind?' to , 'is Paula Abdul a pill-popper?' to 'did Paula Abdul pull a Bill Clinton?', and if it wasn't that, then it was the marginally to no-talented hacks America falls in love with and votes for almost every year(excluding Carrie Underwood and Kelly Clarkson).
This year, AI has completely gone to the dogs.
First it was the Antonella nude photos. The latest scandal is that Season 2 finalist Olivia Mojica made a sex tape with her former boyfriend. But what makes this year's AI such a mess is that America's voting for the WORST possible candidate for winning the whole enchilada: Sanjaya Malakar. My God, i've listened to some shitty singers before, but how this man is even in the running to be the next AI is un-fucking-believable. With all the incompetence, the drama and the sex scandals this year on Idol, i'm not sure whether i'm watching a re-run of the Monica-gate scandal or witnessing the latest Bush fuck-up from one of his incompetent cronies!
All I can say is this: Please America, use some common sense and quit voting for Malakar; this is how we elected George Bush as President!

Not only is he ruining American Idol, he's also afflicting Countdown, since KO's producer forces him to cover it.
Worst of all, though, is that he seems to be doing it on purpose. His ego may be colossal, but I doubt it's so big that he truly believes he is studly enough to steal Jennifer Lopez away from her husband. By playing on the near-universal dislike people hold for him, he may be seriously shooting himself in the foot when it comes to post-Idol employment.
Simon makes me want to fry a small mammal's balls(his,actually) in a vat of chicken fat.
That said,I can't watch idol. Being a musician myself,and knowing how hard it is for talented people to get a real chance,it's too much like a gladiator fight for me.
A lot of blood,a lot of struggle,and in the end they eat the victor(metaphorically).
