Ex-Idol Constantine Toots His Skin Flute

Constantine Maroulis was supposed to be the next big rock star thanks to "American Idol." Instead he's hosting a Bingo Night in Wisconsin. Take that, Carrie Underwood!


The long-haired lothario was the star attraction at Oneida Bingo in Oneida, Wisc., where he tried to answer questions about musical instruments -- only people kept walking in front of him with trays of food. Pass the tater tots!

If you lose on "Idol" ... you can still win at bingo.

61. He is icky, creepy and useless. Not to mention too ugly to live.

62. me said: "Apparently you think he's a big enough celebrity to have ripped the video from YouTube. If he's such a looser why would you think anyone would care to view it? Let me answer that. Because you know the mention of Constantine's name brings the fans, the non-fans and just plain haters. Whether they love him or they hate him, they just can't help commenting and giving the site the hits they desire and that's what it's all about, isn't it TMZ? I hardly think that makes him a looser(sic)"

People enjoy watching a trainwreck. He's still a few rungs lower than Tara Reid as far as talentless famewhores go but he'll get there someday.

63. Who is Tara Reid?

64. I'd hazard to guess he is about ten thousand times more talented, beautiful and nicer than any of the commenters here and any of the tmz staff. Just a wild guess.

66. Hmmm...
I'd hate to be an actor looking for work during this writers' strike, I guess I'd go where I was invited in the meantime.
I hope he gets plenty of chances to sing in 2008, like he did for the 49ers game. That was golden.

67. Whose skin flute does he play? I always knew he swung both ways. He should stay in theater.

68. UM.........Oneida Casino is in GREEN BAY...not oneida!

69. Bingo in WISCONSIN? Wow, Bo and Carrie must be green with envy!

Honestly, I wouldn't degrade myself calling bingo for ten CENTS, much less ten grand. First of all, some of us have a bit more self-respect than that, and we weren't some sixth place looooooooooooooooser from THREE YEARS AGO on a glorified karaoke reality show. The guy can't sing in tune, his CD totally bombed, the two shows on Off-Broadway/Broadway CLOSED after he joined, his soap stint took a major nose dive in the ratings and was named "Reason To Hit The Mute Button" moment or something like that in the soap mags, he was reduced to performing in the bra and panty department of STEIN MART in bum freak nowhere in OHIO and being Bingo Calling Smoking Man. Yeah, I sure wish I was him. NOT.

And the slightly below 100 fans he has left are mostly grossly obese, OLD housewives who are so empty headed and stupid, they not only had to look up what a 'skin flute' was, they also think TMZ is thinking he's 'witty!' Wake up, old, airhead fat asses, the media is MOCKING him. Get a clue, idiots.

70. Pedophile gaze + Stringy Hair = Future Apperance on Dateline NBC To Catch A Predator

71. With high profile gigs like this, maybe he should ask someone about his talent instead of being such a narcissist.

72. Oneida Bingo often brings in recognizable personalities to sign autographs and call Bingo. I don't think anyone does it for "charity". I saw someone win $250,000 playing Bingo, so I think they can afford to pay for the celebrities. Some of the stars have more fans than others, but it is always interesting...

73. Randy-
It seems you know more about this guy than some of his fans. You say you're not a fan- but you're defiantly a fanatic.

& BTW even old houswives enjoy good music.

If you consider crappy Ricky Martin wannabe songs like "Girl Like You" or sappy generic songs like "Everybody Loves" to be good music, you are sadly out of touch with todays youth. The best you can hope for is that you don't embarass your kids too much by talking about this poser in front of their friends.

Seriously, I thought it was embarassing when my mom listened to Celine Dion. Now I realize how much worse it could have been.

75. Randy...Holy crap your obsession is eating you alive! Good god you know everything Constantine has done in his life including every time he takes a crap I guess. I am a fan of his and I do not fit the sterotype you gave. It's very insulting but mostly you just sound like a rabid,salivating, foaming at the mouth.... very lonely sad person. There are other things in the world than Constantine. See a therapist and maybe wth heavy counseling and perhaps some medication,you can get better and forget about Constantine Maroulis. The obsession is so unheathy. Try to find a good hobby, Something non-violent. Gardening perhaps?
