Danny Noriega criticizes American Idol for not giving him a free invite to the American Idol finale next week. Danny Noriega placed 11th in the current season of American Idol. He was invited by was it Ellen DeGeneres or Rosie O’ Donnel to sing in a cruse ship and to move in with her by Filipina Ramiele Malubay. Danny Noriega says that American Idol is full of $hit. Watch Danny Noriega below rant (again?).

In the spirit of the lenten season, let us listen and watch Canadian Idol Mikey Bustos and American Idol Jasmine Trias perform “The Prayer” in Toronto, Canada. Mikey Bustos and Jasmine Trias are both of Filipino descent.

Amanda Overmyer was voted off on American Idol 7 awhile ago. The bottom 3 are Amanda Overmyer, Kristy Lee Cook and Carly Smithson, for an all-female bottom three. Luckily, our own bet, Filipina Ramiele Malubay did not get the boot despite the not so positive reactions from judges Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson for the past 3 weeks in a row.

The judges, Simon Cowell, Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson concurred though with the bottom 3 choice on tonight’s show.

Amanda Overmyer, 23, from Mulberry, Indiana, had performed “Back in the USSR” during a second consecutive week of Beatles-themed singing.

In tonight’s American Idol show, it was announced that mentors in American Idol season 7, includes Dolly Parton, Mariah Carey, Neil Diamond and Andrew Lloyd Webber.

The Filipina American Idol 7 Top 16 finalist, Ramiele Malubay is subject of another American Idol scandal. Photos of Ramiele Malubay in a seemingly lesbian moment, that of Ramiele Malubay being apparently groped by a woman, that is because the hand appears to be that of a woman, has circulated on the net and is now causing some ruckus on the net.

NBC News, a major American network has also publicized the incident in its newscast. The internet is abuzz of the Ramiele Malubay scandal and a David Hernandez scandal, and a Danny Noriega scandal too!

Although American Idol is a wholesome show, past Idol season’s finalists also figured in sex tape scandals, like Jessica Sierra and even recently AI7 Kristy Lee Cook.

Even judge Paula Abdul was rumored to have had an affair with a male finalist of AI several season’s back.

If the photos are true or meant to be serious stuff, this is too bad for Ramiele Malubay. I’m proud she’s Filipina though! Anyway, what matters in Idol is the singing not the private lives..

Hollywood’s Not America by Ferras will be the  American Idol exit song. American Idol exit songs usually become big hit, like Bad Day by Daniel Powter and Home by Daughtry. American Idol Season 7’s “Hollywood Week” airs February 12 and 13.

Hollywood’s Not America by Ferras lyrics has a relevant theme for an American Idol exit song which goes something like this:

So long
Put your blue jeans back on
Go home
Remember: Hollywood’s not America.

You can watch Ferras singing Hollywood’s Not America here. Ferras first studio album entitled, Aliens and Rainbows will be released on April 1, 2008.
