American Idol—Nipples or No?

posted by on March 5 at 23:12 PM

Now that Project Runway is finally over, we turn our gaze to other television realities, and other screaming homosexuals. By which, of course, I mean American Idol, and this guy:

Every season it’s fucking something, and this season that fucking something’s name is David Hernandez. That’s him in the pic above.

David is a top (ahem) contestant this time around, and he’s also apparently a big gay ‘ho. Or a big ‘ho for the gays. Whatever.

The story goes that he found gainful employment as a rather nude stripper/topless bartender (with emphasis on the stripper) at a gay, gay, GAY! bar in the recent past, and everyone knows that this sort of frivolous behavior is deeply frowned upon by the prudes that run A.I.

So will Idol allow David to continue singing his little heart out, now that it’s been uncovered (ahem, ahem) that he’s all gay-for-pay and crap? And/or that he’s obviously none too shy about revealing his man-nipples? Or will he be unceremoniously dumped, like some unfortunate and booby-showing acquaintances of mine? And if he isn’t dumped, does that constitute a dreadful double standard?

Speculation is pointless. And I’m not watching the damn thing to find out.

Full story (and lots of nipply photographic evidence) here.

Oh, Sanjaya! Where are you?!?!

Producer Ken Warwick has already stated that David won't be kicked off the show (and this was announced before the guys performed live Tuesday night).

And didn't your mother ever teach you not to use bitmaps on the Internet? If not, shame on her.

Will this season's American Idol feature a pole-dancing competition?

It might be worth tuning in....

I could go the rest of my life without seeing another episode of this tumor of a show. I'm surrounded by women at work, so hearing about it every fucking day is enough.

Thanks Adrian. Thanks Poe. I swear that you 2 guys are the only ones that make sense in this crazy online world.

Mr. Poe would never say anything inappropriate.

So you're wrong.
