16. This guy isnt a celebrity. He is a game show contestant that lost.
Send him back to wherever he came from. He is a joke.

17. now just look at that picture...Sanjaya is one sexy man!! On top of that he is an amazing performer and singer. I honestly don't get how you guys don't see that in him. Sanjaya saved this season of American Idol. Sanjaya is great!!!
Just because American Idol is over, does not mean Sanjaya is over! He has big things coming his way!!

18. I think he's great. I enjoyed him on AI, and thought that he often got a bum rap. I thought right after Idol, it was announced that he had a record deal.

19. TMZ once again goes with the herd mentality and trashes a kid who was a great performer and was just getting started. He is one sexy guy and he also happens to be one very nice guy who has such a great positive attitude. You can say any mean thing you want. He rises above it while you remain in the gutter. Very sad to comment or write about so harshly about someone whose heart is in the right place.

20. Sanjaya will give an awesome performance. He sang with this choir before. If still don't understand that he is one AWESOME singer, check out video of him singing with the choir:

21. He should be in The Jungle Book- if it has been made into a musical.

22. #4, # 6 I agree with you. I never watched idol before or after him. I enjoyed watching him and wish him success in his endeavors! He is young so I'm not writing him off so quickly.

23. Untalented dothead....please DIE!

24. Oh here we go! The hate and the vituperative barbs set in every time there is an official announcement of something good happening for this kid, be it an award, the announcement of his CD or his public singing appearances. It's beyond old, and mostly the work of a bunch of jealous people who can't let go that maybe he advanced further on Idol than some of their own favorites. Why on EARTH would I put in earplugs? I LOVE Sanjaya's voice, and if you're gonna put in earplugs for him, do the same for Stevie Wonder, Michael jackson, Prince, Smokey Robinson etc cause Sanjaya sounds more like these guys than anyone else performing today. And believe it ot not, some actually find his smooth, mellow r&b pitch FAR preferable to Blake Lewis's annoying beatboxing and mediocre, personality-less "singing." But yet you wouldn't diss if this were an announcemnt of a Blake lewis appearance. Why? He's FAR less the singer Sanjaya is., and much more annoying. You guys need to get a grip. Seriously.

25. Sanjaya is A-ok. Give him a break!!!

26. please, this is down right pathetic. He is the best thing that happened to American Idol, and he CAN sing. He is going to do amazing in his production, and you should stop being jelous of him just because he will be better than you ever hope to be

27. # 13. I have been saying the same you you said all along. The judges picked him then they picked on him. I hope he proves everyone wrong.

29. TMZ just want hits on its website . That's why keep using Sanjaya's name. Sanjaya is a nice kid. Give him a break.
