Record Execs Think Hernandez Still Muy Caliente!

David HernandezDon't let his early exit from "Idol" fool you -- David Hernandez is still hot ... and we don't mean those stripper pics!

TMZ spoke to several H-Wood record execs who are still dying to work with David. We're told the thinking is.... strike while the iron is hot and release a quick single rather than wait and release a full album. Whether that happens or not remains to be seen.

As TMZ first reported, the biggie publishing companies singled out David Hernandez and David Archuleta early on and told songwriters to create tunes tailored for them.

16. I am so tired of hearing about Gay Idol. I used to watch this show, then I only watched it for the hilarious auditions. I stopped watching it a couple years ago because it's the same old boring, stupid silly stuff, just rehashed for a new season. Now it appears it has morphed into a showcase for gay men to get noticed on national TV. No thanks, I'll pass.

Now can you please MOVE ON to other stories about something besides American Idol ?

17. This guy has some talent but basically, he's a flash in the pan.

18. He will get a deal just like "Mario Vasquez" (cough, cough) the other gay Idol. I am not against that he or anyone else who is gay, to me it has nothing to do with anyone's sexual preference, it has to do with talent. His singing is not too bad its ok, but it sounds like he has the "One Hit Wonder" voice though :-( Quick, hurry make a song..............

19. I'm not a fan of his or his singing ........ in the end, he can always go back to flashing his sweaty b@lls in the strip clubs for money .....

20. Although David H. didn't bring his A game Beatles night, his exit still comes across as predetermined by American Idol producer and judges. They just couldn’t get past the protest of conservative public if he gets on the top 10 ‘Tour.’ Too bad people based their judgment too much off of the morality. If you watched the TMZ interview clip with Simon, you would know Simon already said right after the performance show that David H. will get the boot. Performance night’s too harsh feedback by all three judges supports this. TOTALLY DISGUSTING MANEUVERING by the producer and the judges. David H., I only wish you the best in your future!

21. maybe they all had one of those nude lap dances from him while he was singing in thier ears for a tip in that chesy bar, and, equate that with talent!

22. What is sad is the fact that by far he was better than ding bat girl. Even she herself thought she was a goner. This "great"country of ours just cannot get past the gay thing. Sad really. Can we just wall off the fly over states and get on with it?

23. #3--Bella--what is the problem if he is gay? Why would that make a difference? Are you bigoted?

24. I agree completely with #19--tobefair. And I think David has a wonderful voice, and will be a huge talent.

25. 'Tobefair' and 'SD Guy' - I'm gay (hardly conservative or hung up on the gay thing) and I thought he was crap. I'm glad he's gone.

26. I think you're all crazy - he was hot and he was talented. This is as bad as when Daughtry got voted off. They got rid of David H. so he wouldn't end up in the top 10 and embarass them even more.

27. The Queeny , overtly femmy David Hernandez had to go go. I can't believe Idol dropped that heavy set black girl “Frenchie” a few years ago for merely posing for pics, but this whore Hernandez was allowed to stay on even tho he is an ALL NUDE Male stripper who Performed lap dances “NAKED” on men, for over a year. What a double standard. Make no mistake, he wasn't the type of stripper who went to bachelorette parties and kept his speedo on. He was grinding on dirty old men's laps fully naked with his weiner and twins flopping about.... he's pretty much a prostitute. And the ridiculous eyebrow arching gazes he does every three seconds are so femmy and narcissistic. He is not pop marketable because he is too effeminate although he sings fairly well. His arrogance did him in. David Hernandez' girly eyebrow-arching, and femmy faces and expressions finally caught up with him. Sleezy old men may think that faux cheesy "International Male" catalog model pose of his is sexy, but no one else does. I was so happy to see him go because he didn't think it was gonna be him. And Hernandez, if you're listening, you're over-tweezing your eyebrow and you look ridiculous BTW.

29. First off- David H IS GAY! He has a boyfriend for 2 years, they were both strippers, GET OVER IT!
Second- He is a very good singer and a PRO at that! I wish him ALL the best.
To all you biggots- you should be ashamed of yourselves. LIVE & LET LIVE WITH LOVE!
I feel sorry for you! G-d bless.

30. I was gutted he got kicked off - definitely one of the best - i really hope he does get a record deal. Not too rushed though because they can be a bit crappy.
