Sanjaya -- Screw You "Haters!"

Sanjaya believes that his fans, not Howard Stern, kept him alive on "Idol."

Malakar, the Ponyhawked Wonder who was given the ax this week, was a constant joke for the shock jock, who urged his listeners to vote for Sanjaya to screw with the "Idol" system -- by intentionally voting for "the worst."

Malakar tells Ellen DeGeneres he doesn't believe that Stern's fans and other "haters" voted enough "to make a dent in the system." While confident, and perhaps delusional, Sanjy feels it was his own large fan base that kept the straining singer around for so long.

Sanjy also reveals, in an interview airing Monday on Ellen's talk show, that if he were to shave his hair, he'd donate it to the Britney-esque Phil Stacey -- though it's doubtful Phil would consider it a good luck charm!

50. This kid has no talent. He sucks at interviews, his singing is flat. what makes people think he can't act. I don't see him as broadway material either. But these days, Hollywood will make you a star with no talent. He isn't even cute. I think the people who like him are kids, or adults with some kind of depression

51. I've had enough of the suck-fest that is American Idol. For anyone but the fantards, Sanjaya was the only reason we were watching idol. I could find better singers at the karoake contest at our local fair.
Sanjaya however--there is but one. He was the anti-establishment, anti-hate, anti-powers-that-be candidate.
Now he's gone, but we, his ardent fans, intend to ride with him all the way in he Universe of Sanjaya.

52. Sanya has a lot of fans and we hope to hear him sing again or appear on a television series. He is only 17 and incredibly charismatic.

53. The people who think Sanjaya's thoughts on his popularity is delusional are delusional themselves. VFTW didn't come into effect until after the top 12, nor did Howard Stern. They are obviously unaware of the huge fan base this guy has. Whatever your opinion is on him, you can't deny this guy made a dent in 2007. It's deliciously funny to watch haters throw bitchfits about him when they are only making him more popular, not to mention strengthening the fans.
As for Sanjaya, love that kid, wish more people could be like him. We need less trash on this Earth.
