American Idol gripped by LUDICROUS scandal

In this country, we’re shocked if our Reality TV contestants don’t have a murky past, but it seems the US viewing public are a bit more easily shocked – they’re up in arms about an American Idol contestant who used to be a – gasp – stripper. David Hernandez, who’s just made it into the finals, worked as a nudie singer and dancer at a gay strip joint called Dick’s Cabaret until a few months ago – and, after much deliberation, TV network Fox have decided that he will still be allowed to appear on the show “despite his past”. Um, why wouldn’t he be? At least he’s got a more interesting story than all those High School Musical rejects. What do you make of the big hoo-ha?

It's a good job he wasn't chucked out or his career would have been nothing but a flash in the pan...

I think its right that David is allowed to stay in the competition because he is a fabulous singer and should definetly be in the final. Loved his performance last week. Either one of the David's should win!!!!!
