CELEBRITY SCOOP

The Next American Idol Naked Pictures Scandal?

- This can't be happening again

By: Monica Gaza, Entertainment News Editor

I just love myself a good American Idol naked pictures scandal. In fact, we all love a good scandal, the more infamous the better. But I must say, the all-American talent show who made stars the likes of Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood also turned, say... Jessica Sierra into an unlikely star, despite the fact that she didn't actually win anything. Well, unless they give a prize for "most screwed-up knocked-up celebrity wannabe who also managed to star in her very own sex tape". Yes, that award definitely goes to Jessica. Anyway, the point I was trying to make takes the form of a public appeal: please, if anyone reading this article is considering going
on American Idol next year please, please from the bottom of my heart, don't take any naked pictures of yourselves.

I don't know where this "scandalous naked photos" trend is coming from, but it's definitely been around for quite a while, never got old and is still going at full speed. I just can't understand people's fascination with posing naked for the camera and then showing (actually, giving) the photos to someone else. I understand narcissism, exhibitionism and curiosity, but I sure can't see why after you took (or allowed someone else to take) some naked shots of yourself, you shouldn't keep them in your camera / computer longer than it takes to look at them and exclaim "oh, God, look at how big my a*s is!" Apparently, some people think differently. In any case, it would seem that yet another one of this year's top 12 Idol finalists is causing controversy – skunk-haired Amanda Overmyer.

Word on the street is, someone from Amanda's home state of Indiana is shopping around controversial photos of the singer. "Someone in her home state of Indiana is shopping nude pictures of Amanda-and they’ve been offered big money... If those pictures pop up on the Internet, Idol will have another huge scandal on it’s hands", said a source. Well, what can I say – there's a good chance this isn't true, and I do hope Amanda was careful not to email her friends or boyfriend naked photos of herself. You know, like Vanessa Hudgens did. But since Amanda hasn't been signed up by Disney yet, I think we can assume we're safe for the moment at least. In any case, the skunk hair and nudity really don't go hand in hand. Maybe if Amanda dyed her hair a different color. Yeah, that would work. Kidding.

The Next American Idol Naked Pictures Scandal? - USER OPINIONS

Comment #1 by Patrick Schall on 2008-03-21, 21:27 GMT reply to this comment 
I am outraged at the things people will do to ruin these rising stars dreams over things from the past. We have all done things as teenagers and young adults that we aren't proud of but we still have the ability to get those good jobs. I feel for these girls and guys that got dumb and let someone photograph themselves in the buff and now its comming back to haunt them. I just hope that american idol can think and forget about this stuff because if they really are trying to set a good example for americas young then paula abdule shouldn't be a judge because of the drinking and driving offenses. anyway I am not here to throw stones but let their past be their past and as long as they are good citizens and roll models now that is what is important to me anyways. Thank You, Patrick Schall Breckenridge Michigan:)
