Hmmmm...I found this and thought it was interesting, if you can overlook the as-per-usual-dipped-in-snarkiness. According to at least one source (whether reliable or not is the question) Sanjaya may actually be doing a whole series of commercials for Nationwide! I wonder if this is true,...

Maybe this will be cleared up later, but I don't think this particular gig AI is profiting from. I don't think Ace is with 19E management (correct me if I'm wrong), so payment of the gig will be split between him and his management. I think venues like this just use the American Idol name as a sell...

You make a good point. But, I do not think American Idol would allow their name to be used if they were not getting something out of it, even if they are only being paid for the use of their name...so perhaps monies are split between the artist, their management, and American Idol. Anyway, it is a hot...

I completely understand the need for exposure #8230;but not all exposure is good exposure.

By J. Kevin Tumlinson(kevin@tumlinson.net) Why did this guy stay in the competition? Because there are a lot of freaks in the world and most of them know how to text message. That and like "American Idol" I'm absolutely positive that the fix is in and the producers keep certain people around for production value.

The big voice overwhelmed the beatbox Wednesday night as Jordin Sparks was crowned the newest and youngest "American Idol." Sparks, 17, of Glendale, Ariz., prevailed over Blake Lewis, 25, of Bothell, Wash., after a triumphant performance Tuesday that wowed the show's judges and the view...

By The Huffington Post TMZ received a hilarious video of Sanjaya explaining that his "real" name is Bill Vendall, and that he is an art student at the Rhode Island School of Design.

By Rob Sheffield Sanjaya, going his own way as usual, decided not to do a country song at all, since that would be too easy.

American Idol Held Hostage: Sanjaya Malakar Rolls On By Josh Hart Mar 29, 2007  However, ask any American Idol viewer how Sanjaya Malakar wore his hair, and we’re pretty sure that every single one of them would remember the pony-hawk."

By Rob Sheffield I, for one, expected a little more from Sanjaya’s hair last night. After last week, when he rocked the faux-pony- hawk in a tribute to Paula’s hair in the “Opposites Attract” video, I was hoping he’d try the sassy updo she wore in “Cold Hearted.” Oh, well — Sanjaya is a man who makes his own rules....

By Tempo When this season of “American Idol” is over, whether or not Sanjaya Malakar wins, the wildly coiffed contestant should thank Dave Della Terza, the suburban Chicago resident whose Web site, VoteForTheWorst.com, may be helping Sanjaya hang on to his “Idol” perch.

Sanjaya Malakar may not have much of a voice, but his fans are plenty vocal. By simply surviving on "American Idol," Sanjaya is sparking debate, conspiracy theories and never-ending threads of online flamers and groupies. When votes are revealed tonight, he may again avoid the execution...
