Noriega Gets a Key -- To Nowhere

Fallen "Idol" Danny Noriega got some extended time in the spotlight yesterday - the flat-ironed falsetto was awarded an honorary key to the city - of Azusa. *golf clap*
Danny Noriega gets an award
Beautiful Azusa, Calif. is located somewhere by a freeway outside of L.A. and is Danny Noriega's hometown. Also from Azusa, Tony Robbins and Rocky Dennis - you know, the guy the '80s movie "Mask" was about.

18. Wow you guys need to stop talking trash about danny. He only made it to the top 16 and yet he has a bigger fanbase than any other contestant...that must mean a LOT. It means that he is amazing and was not voted off of idol. Idol is rigged, and kicked him off. He has so many fans and unlike most celebrities, he tries his best to interact with his fans and treat them equally. And no it's not just 15 minutes of fame. His fans are really into him and see way more than what you see. You judge way too fast. Just because you may think he is a little different or apparently like some of you have said he "looks like a girl", that does not mean that you should hate him for that. He is an AMAZING person. If you were a fan, you would know that. Just because you aren't as successful as him, doesn't mean that you have to talk crap about him. Us danny fans will always be here, so you better start getting used to it!

23. Azusa gives a key to city to American Idol contestants who get booted off? How about giving the keys to city to the true heroes, teachers, leaders, heroes, etc. These politicians have nothing better on their agendas.
