TMZ spoke with Ramiele Malubay's Spanish teacher at Zephyrhills High School, who distinctly remembers something that could knock Rammy off "American Idol" -- she's extremely allergic to peanuts!
This could be vital information for fellow "Idol" contestants who might want to sabotage Ramiele if they ever feel she's a threat. Fortunately, based on previous performances, that probably won't be an issue.

31. WTF IS GOING ON HERE? ARE YOU INSANE? I AM HALF AMERICAN-HALF FILIPINO. I WAS BORN HERE IN THE U.S. WHY YOU POST SOMETHING LIKE THIS OR EVEN SUGGESTED THIS CRAP? TMZ SHOULD BE VERY CAREFUL. I SMELL LAWSUIT IN THE FUTURE. YOU ARE BUNCH OF RACIST, PREJUDICE S.O.B.
32. I AM REPORTING THIS TO AOL!
I AM SURE THE PARENT COMPANY OF TMZ WOULD NOT BE THRILLED WITH THIS MURDER MANUAL!
I SUGGEST EVERYONE READING THESE COMMENTS DO THE SAME.
I AM SHOCKED THE LAPD HASN'T ASKED FOR THIS TO BE REMOVED.
SOME CRAZED FAN COULD DO THIS TO HER NOW!
I BET YOU HEAR FROM HER/AI'S LAWYERS SOON!

33. Oh LB....don't turn this into a race issue. It's not a race issue. It's a TMZ stupidity issue. Where did you see this article, "spike her punch with peanuts because she half Filipino?"
The fact that TMZ is advocating for the murder of anyone is BAD ENOUGH!!! Regardless of their heritage or nationality. Save the race card for when it's warranted. This isn't the time.

35. TMZ this is a disgusting article. Food allergies are not a joke! They can lead to DEATH. I was horrified by this article, and whoever wrote it should be fired! This is not funny to anyone and extremely offensive to anyone with a food allergy. And to whoever posted the comments about giving Ramiele peanuts, you are totally sick. TMZ YOU DISGUST ME!

36. Hey here's something....How about the high school Spanish teacher who told this to the media loses her job? I'm not sure that someone that stupid should be teaching children.

37. What kind of twisted people would put this kind of information on a site? Her life is at risk. Whoever wrote this should be fired. This is akin to telling someone to take a gun and shoot her. Exposure to an allergen that can cause anaphylaxis is a life and death matter, not a joke.

38. What the hell is wrong with you TMZ? Are you giving away government secrets to Bin Laden too? She could really get hurt and this is NOT FUNNY

39. Nice to know that Tonya Harding finally landed a job writing for TMZ! Seriously, this is totally irresponsible "journalism" (I use this term loosely). Use better judgement on what you write about. Don't be such a dumbass.

40. Ramiele, is a sweet, decent girl..from a decent family ---so instead of provoking readers to put her in danger, TMZ should "filter" their blogs and ban destructive writeups.
If I were Ramiele, or anyone in her family, better be careful of any food offered to you!
And next time, please choose songs that will bring out the powerful range that youhave! Take a cue from Filipino divas like Regine Velasquez and Lani Misalucha.....you are not far behind these 2!

41. This is awful. I'm fatally allergic to peanuts among other things and i can not believe this is an 'actual' article. Do you know how hard it is to live with deathly food allergies? you should be ashamed of yourself. at least say how she has triumphed over these dissabilities, not how others can sabatoge her with them! very dissapointed.

42. This comment is in poor taste, at the very least. It does a disservice to the contestant, who suffers from a life-threatening condition, and it does a disservice to the other contestants by implying that they might be willing to try to kill her in order to win American Idol!
Show some class--apologize at once.

44. My five year old son is extremely allergic to peanuts and I find this so absurd that you would make light of something that could kill someone in minutes. Not funny, giving dimwits ideas. Kids read these stupid posts and may not realize that someone could die. You should all be ashamed of yourselves. You cannot imagine the battle that I had just to get my son to attend Kindergarten and the constant fear that another kid would eat peanut butter and just have their breath hit my son. You all should take a good long look in the mirror before making light of some ones possible demise. Shame on you.
