Third.

 

Though Mario in S4 was going to be DQ’d but they let him withdraw beforehand so it would look better on all parts.

Oh this is confirmed now? I did wonder if that incident was true.

I see we're bring the Daughtry/Kat fanwars back in 2021. 🙂

I like and am a fan of Chris' so I won't take part in any fanwar. 😘

One of the contestants in the Top 5 (the token country guy from South Carolina) had a video go viral overnight from a couple years back of him sitting next to someone in a KKK hood*. They just announced an hour or so ago that he won't be competing on Sunday's show, so naturally people in the GD are like "OMG I HOPE THIS MEANS MY FAVE CAN RETURN" instead of focusing on what's actually happening here.

 

*or a costume from one of the killers in The Strangers if you listen to his mother

Yikes... Wow Caleb got disqualified? 😮 Wow I missed so much.  Though i understand the reasoning behind it.

Supposedly it was that he was being inappropriate with some of the women behind the scenes. Idol caught wind and essentially said “either withdraw or we’re kicking you off,” which is probably what happened with Caleb as well.

It thought the rumor was that he was caught messing with a man in a restroom? :dead: Where did I hear that rumor from. 😂

Controversy[edit]

In 2007, Magdaleno Olmos, an employee of Fremantle Media which produces American Idol, filed a lawsuit against Fremantle Media, Fox Entertainment, and Mario Vazquez claiming wrongful termination.[12] The lawsuit alleged that Vazquez sexually harassed Olmos by performing a lewd act in front of him and offered sexual favors.[13] Olmos claimed that he tried to report the incident to a superior but was threatened with dismissal, and he was "terminated" a few months after the incident. Olmos' lawyer also suggested that Idol producers had forced Vasquez out over the complaint, and claimed that Nigel Lythgoe, the show producer, had said to Olmos, "we know that this happened and we are going to let Mario Vazquez go, and you're going to stay."[14]

Vazquez was reported to be "very upset, almost distraught" over the claim and that he didn't even remember Magdaleno Olmos.[15] He had previously denied that he is gay and that he quit the show for "artistic reasons".[5] The judge later ruled that Olmos had signed an agreement to "arbitrate all disputes and not file a lawsuit," and sent the case to arbitration and put a hold on the lawsuit.[16]

Lololol and now I find out the runner up guy already got eliminated. What a wild year for Idol.

-Two withdraws

-A universally hated comeback twist that resulted in the lowest viewed episode in Idol history

-Last year’s runner-up being eliminated at the Top 7

-Judges missing various shows because of COVID exposure

-A contestant “withdrawing” due to a viral video of them hanging out next to someone in KKK garb

 

Between this and The Bachelor, I can only assume ABC has utilized the casting department from Drag Race.

LMAO Yeah he only lasted 2 weeks which shows what a waste that twist was. :dead: Granted... he probably would have lasted longer than any of the other wildcards had they advanced but that twist was not needed lol.
