INSIDE SOURCE: Sanjaya to make Final Three
HOLLYWOOD, CALIFORNIA- According to inside sources, Sanjaya Malakar will end up in the final three. To many he has become the ultimate novelty act. He is William Hung taken to its furthest conclusion. At least Mr. Hung had the self awareness to realize that it was a comical experience. Unfortunately, the public perception is mixed as to Malakar's awareness. Surely, he must, but according to several ex-contestents, including the recently voted off Gina, Malakar does not care what anyone thinks. Clearly. Surely the brass at Idol must be slightly concerned as their numbers are notably down, the simple fact is that it is reaching a new audience. It now is reaching the legions of Howard Stern fans (and universal contrarians all over) who are watching this season with voyeuristic pleasure. It is estimated that Stern, along with votefortheworst.com are responsible for over 50% of Malakar's total votes. When you factor in the tween crowd, who you know will use every one of their 10 votes on multiple phones (because that is what tweens do), that is a force to be reckoned with. Let us remember that it is the number of votes cast FOR a person. It is not like the SAT where there is a negative point system. Surely, if there were, the "Sanjaya Effect" would be minimized to nil. But let's face it, the marginal singers or those who just haven't shined in a given week do not stand a chance against Sanjaya's considerable and growing crowd. Yes, at this point he is not in the final three, but you watch, as the time gets closer, there will be more and more stories about this amazing social psychology experiment and people will start changing their votes. While we are not at the point of being so delusional as to say he'll be the next Idol, we can confidently say that he will be among the top 3 (four tops).
Who's going get voted off tonight? Heavy odds are for Phil. Why? Haley is cuter than his good natured bald head. Shallow? You bet, but America is a very shallow place as Idol shows us each and every week. Idol should compulsory viewing in college.
