Could this be why Scott is still on Idol?

[hogua]

This morning, the local news I watch ran a story to "explain why Scott is still on American Idol".

The station blamed this web site:link

Basically, the site urges people to vote for the worst performer on AI (at present Scott is their pick for worst) each week.

Not sure if this site is driving the voting at all, but I thought some of you AI investors might be interested.

i have thought that scott has some geekyboy friends that figured out how to powervote millions of votes without getting caught.

for him to be top 3 last week was scary, but there are 35 million votes cast so it can't be a small site like that giving him the extra votes. i'm sure it can't hurt, but i don't think it could add or change that many votes.

anyway, i hear that ABC is running a segment on idol wednesday night that is going to blow the lid off the show. i'm not sure what that means, but it does not sound good.

i just saw the counter there. total hits are half a million. like i said, it probably is helping scott but i don't know by how much.

interesting site tho

I think there are a lot of sympathetic fat people in this country.

See, I always thought they should have done the voting like they did on Fame. Limit calls to 5 votes per phone line. If you want to vote 15 times - you would have to use your home phone, cell phone and a pay phone. That way people who are bored with too much time on their hands can't inflate the votes unfairly.

Yea I'm with this theory. All the scotty the body stuff is just fueling the fire.

Was she banging constantine?!?!?!

He was pretty smooth when he was on Elimidate. I believe he won so this wouldn't suprise me.

An article I read, stated that he just put the counter on his site last Monday, following recent news reports of his site.

I do think that a team of few thousand power voters could have changed the results. Not one person I have talked about American Idol likes or has voted for Scott. You must ask yourself and coworkers and friends the same thing. Where are the Scott voters coming from?

Not one person I have talked about American Idol likes or has voted for Scott.

here's the deal SS. i agree with you 100%

last year when john stevens got further than anyone expected or he deserved, he still had a huge fan base at the idol forums that were voting for him and professing devotion.

if you go to the idol forums, you can BARELY find a single person who admitted ever voting for scott. that's why i suspect foul play in the voting.

also, i don't think that corey clark's bs book or the paula/constantine rumors have anything to do with the ABC special. i want to hear the messages.
