Mom of Former "Idol" Finalist Sings "My Way"

166. I think that last comment was extremely disrespectfully!!!!!!!!!! His mother was a huge part of the show when he was on American Idol and she seemed like a very sweet and obviously supportive mother. You should be ashamed! May God bless you Elliott!

169. This woman always made me cry "with joy" because I could feel her love and adoration for you Elliott everytime she was featured. You were her life and I thank you for allowing her to share the spotlight with you Elliott. She will live in that great smile of yours forever........keep singing for her.....and us!
God Bless you

171. WOW!! I can't believe you would say that. I'm not a big Taylor fan, but you took that WAY over the line. Please be a bit more respectful when people's loved ones die. What horrible people you must be!!

173. I'm a huge fan of TMZ, but lately I've noticed that you've either changed writing staff, or just grown terribly out of touch with reality. Your comments here, and on other places (stars w/out makeup, for one) read as if you are the friendless loser in highschool that's trying to get attention by being as rude and obnoxious as possible. You don't have the experience, wit, or following of some shock jocks like Howard Stern, so stop trying so hard. This wasn't "shockingly funny" as I can only imagine you thought it would be. This was just a sad attempt at humor by witless loser. I hope this isn't your day job....

179. Extremely inappropriate and insensitive.

I've never posted here before but your complete lack of sympathy for Elliot needs to be repeatedly addressed until you issue a retraction and/or apology to him...and to the readers.

180. Would hate to be the person who wrote and approve this. You are to far gone.
