3. OK, so they threw off a girl a few years ago over nude photos (that if I recall correctly, were intended to be private, and some jerk leaked them), but a guy who strips in gay bars and gives men lap dances gets to stay and it's all just dandy. Double standard much?

4. Leave this guy alone - who gives a s**** what kind of jobs he has had? So what!
I know plenty of straight guys (and girls) that work at gay bars, and even strip.
Sometimes you guys are a little to judgemental!

5. Whoa, David is old enough to work in a strip join? Does he have a hot bod? And I thought professional musicians couldn't compete on Idol... doesn't this count as a professional gig?

Come to think of it... aren't a lot of the contestants technically pros too? (pro singers, not the other thing)

6. Contestants can compete on AI as long as they don't have a record deal. And, I highly doubt these 4 released any vinyl.

7. Who the heck is the lead singer in this group? You can't even tell! It looks like they are singing something different and was voiced over.

8. We need a video of him stripping. Wonder if he was good at it or not. Maybe he can work that into one of his up and coming Idol routines? EH?

10. David H is Hot! No Double Standard. On a previous AI season, finalist Nikki worked as a stripper to support herself and daughter. She wasn't kicked off. Frenchie was on a porn website. Big difference. However, the Vinyl Four guy singing next to David IS on a gay porn website showing his all, front and back under "Ryan Seacrest", oops, "Ryan Steele".

11. I don't know what's worse. David Hernandez or someone being classless enough to actually record a cruise ship performance.

13. Why can't Idol be what it is supposed to be--a platform for people who have never been discovered? It seems this gent was at least a semi-pro and that just seems unfair to the spirit of the rank amature giving it a go at the big time. And besides, their rules are their rules and they should be enforced equally--Frenchie was booted for racy behavior; to not give das same boot to David would be a serious show of discrimination.

14. Idol was never a format for people who have never been discovered. Kelly Clarkson had a record deal that went nowhere. I believe Taylor Hicks also released a record before AI. Clay Aiken seems to fit the bill of undiscovered talent. But most people on this top 24 list have some kind of performing experiences already. But this trend is hardly started this season. Frankly if someone is really good at singing, chances are they have already performed in public in some kind of forum. Be it singing solo in a church or sing at a local baseball game, etc. They didn't bend the rule for David really. Nikki from the first season was also a stripper. Frenchie got the boot because she was doing soft porn on the internet. If David was doing gay porn, I doubt he'll still be around. Bo Bice, who almost won, was convicted of possession of cocaine. So if we are to kick anyone off who are not 100% clean, innocent, etc., there will not be too many contestants left. Also big stars always have some kind of fatal "flaw" to them and that's why people are attracted to (Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, Linsey Lohan, etc). I doubt David H will win this thing a la Diablo Cody. However, if he plays his cards right, he might be able to find himself in a very good situation. He was somewhat boring before but now he's at least somewhat interesting.
