"Idol" Contestant Wigs Out

46. When rocker guys grow their hair long it's to look rock n' roll, anti-establishment, whatever, so when a guy buys his hair just to look cool, it's pathetic. It'd be one thing if he had cancer, but it seems like he wears a wig to look rock n roll, instead of actually BEING rock n roll. What a poser. If he was really that person he would have been growing his hair for years. Instead it's like he decided what his image should be for the show and he bought a cheap wig as a way of attaining that.

He should get extensions if he doesn't want anyone to know.

47. It's time the government investigated American Idol like they did with the $64000 Question. This show is blatantly fixed that the whole thing is a total fraud on the public.

48. Do you mean that all wig wearers are fake or just Robbie? Where do you draw the line- I mean, do extentions make you fake or are you still real with those? What about false eyelashes? Makeup? hair dye? Everyone uses some sort of product to express themselves. What an unworthy piece of "news" who cares.

50. Does it really matter, the man can sing. The show is suppose to be about singing, not whether he wears a wig or not.

51. TMZ has really uncovered a big story. What next? Does he shave his legs? I style hair for the music industry and if you knew how many rock and pop stars wear wigs and extensions you'd be amazed. This is not news. This is just something to cast aspersions on a person for no reason. It is a singing competition.

52. I have been a big fan of American Idol since it started, but I have got to say, this is the worst. This year's contestants are by far the worst. There are a few that can sing, but compared to previous years..the talent is the worst. What happened to the fixing up the contestants. The makeup, fashion & hair is something you see at a high school hop. Is American Idol getting ready to have a final year? Even the judges are not putting their best into it. . Simon tells it all ehen he gives his opinion...the contestants are the worst. The show does not keep my eye locked on the tube this year. Ho Hum

53. The point is ........ HE talked about how "real" he was . .. But ..turns out he is a phony..

It' like the girl who wears make-up, a wig, false brests, lipstick, girdle, and high heels,

Saying she is looking for a REAL man..

Move on, Robbie .. you suck..

54. Wearing a wig is being a fake? What about getting botox and fixing your upper lip to cover half your face and looking like freaks, like celebs are doing in the recent fad? Now, that would be being a fake. What exactly is a fake in singing? Lip-syncing to someone else's singing would be being a fake. Being a ballet dancer without any intention of making any records after the contest is over would be being a fake. Being a guy pretending to be a girl singer would be being a fake. Being 90 and getting plastic surgery to look 20 in order to enter the contest would be being a fake. Being the devil pretending to be a heavenly angel would be being a fake. But HOW ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH IS WEARING A WIG WHILE SINGING BEING A FAKE? Someone tell me.

55. Has anybody thought maybe the guy has lost his hair due to an illness? So he needs to wear a wig ? Soquick to judge. Really who cares this is a singing competition is it not ?

56. maybe he has a medical condition such as alopecia or something.

57. The bad thing about it is the guy is claiming "to be real...this is who I am"......ummmm....not if you're wearing a god-awful looking rug, dude....you're trying to look like something other than what you are....doesn't matter anyway....you're gone tonight.

58. I wonder if he is really bald.

59. What about the ringer from San Diego with a girl's face tattooed on her upper arm. Seems strange for a girl to have a picture of a girl. Think she stinks and is a pro and should not even be on this show.
