Jason Castro: All But a "Memory"?

Posted Apr 23rd 2008 6:44PM by TMZ Staff

"American Idol" message boards are buzzing that tonight's "Idol" castoff will be Jason Castro -- and it's allegedly Ryan Seacrest who leaked it!

An email exchange posted on an "Idol" fan site points the finger at Ryan -- saying he blabbed that it's Castro that's getting the boot.

Only problem ... Ryan doesn't even know yet himself!

While Ryan has said in the past that he finds out who gets sent packing the morning of the show, we're told the only two people who know the big name at this point in the day are the two executive producers -- Nigel Lythgoe and Cecile Frot-Coutaz.

In fact, Nigel told us exclusively who will go home tonight -- the person with the least number of votes.

11. Well Jason has been pure entertainment for us all. His music has moved and lifted so many people. I have been a fan following his story since hearing his rendition on Daydreamin Boy. I do not think that Jason is going anywhere tonight. I and other ans voted non stop for full voting time period. Jason has an amazing story and we should all aspire to be more like him. Jason was very sick and never let on. If such a leak was made to benefit the AI machine ...well so be it.. I have never cared to watch this show before much less vote. I have a son Jason's age

12. Honestly....after last nights performance...I would not be surprised at all if Jason was the one who got the boot. Though...Brooke was equally as bad....and I would love to see her go home (tired of the crying.) I think the problem is Jason has a very Mraz-like quality to his voice, and the songs they give him really aren't suited.

13. Oh Please. Jason is NOT going home tonight. He is the purest talent AI has ever seen.
GO JASON!!!!!

14. This is SO awesome. I KNEW it was blown completely out of proportion when I Googled this mysterious "Adam S." on Google and found it to be Adam Schubak of TV Guide who said something to Laura of americanidolspoilers.com (At 6:33am, while Ryan's doing his radio show nonetheless!)--which I think was a result of Adam's boss giving his opinion as a fact....

If Jason really did have the least number of votes, I hope they rightfully send Brooke, who has skated by twice, pissed off both fans AND Rickey Minor & the band, and is the new VFTW pick for being unstable. Poor Jason has so much more to offer...he's unique and Neil Diamond week next week will be amazing if he makes it through. I hope so....
