Sanjaya Malakar is AWESOME!!

While I was at home this weekend, my brother introduced me to Sanjaya Malakar and votefortheworst.com; and I want to take a moment to thank him. For those of you who are not aware, Sanjaya is one of the remaining eight contestants on American Idol this season....and he is absolutely terrible. Sure, he's a better singer than me, but that isn't saying much.

As for votefortheworst.com, it was started in 2004, and gained some popularity when it helped some less than stellar contestants advance further than they should have. Earlier this season, Howard Stern jumped on board and helped promote the site and the voting of Sanjaya and now the popularity of the site and its mission is at an all time high. I personally think this is a fantastic idea and would love to see Sanjaya crowned as the next "American Idol."

However, there are also numerous die-hard Idol fans out there who are not as fond of the site as I am. They claim it is ruining the entire show (which, in essence, it is...but I'm perfectly fine with that). There have also been threats of lawsuit against the site, but to this date, no pending lawsuits have been recognized. I headed over to the site to read some of the hate mail and came across the following entry. I must say, Idol has some of the most intelligent fans in the world.

"you really have no life. i hope you get sewed from that danielle girl. no one likes you . all of the american idol fans think your stupid. sanjaya malakar is not going to win this thing ill make sure of it. im gonna be so happy the day you get sewed." -AnimalLover3492

I can't say that I know what getting "sewed" is. Something to do with sewers?? Not really sure on that one. As for how this person is going to make sure Sanjaya doesn't win, good luck doing it one your own...

Anyway, back to Sanjaya. Yea, he's bad and everyone knows it. Here's a sample of one of his performances. You'll notice the girl in the video they keep cutting to. She may say she's a fan of his at the end, but we all know his singing/performance was the thing making her so upset. See for yourself...



So as you can see, Sanjaya is really, really good bad. However, I encourage all of you to visit votefortheworst.com and/or partake in voting for the worst, aka Sanjaya. The next showing of American Idol will air on Tuesday night at 8pm EST. The next voting will take place during Wednesday's showing, airing at 9pm EST. I encourage all of you to take some time during the next couple of months and help make Sanjaya Malakar the next American Idol!!
