Sanjaya Malakar

Born – September 10, 1989
Seattle, Washington, U.S.

“American Idol” contestant, reality TV star, slightly less of a joke than William Hung.

Career High Point: Coming in 7th on “American Idol.”

Career Low Point: Coming in 7th on “American Idol.”

Dazzled/annoyed all of America with his unique song stylings and even more unique hair stylings.

Won "Favorite Reality Game Loser" at the 2007 "Golden Realitini" awards. That's right-- there's an award show for reality TV stars.

His “Ponyhawk” hairstyle was ranked as No. 3 in the 2007 "Top TV Moment" video searches by AOL. Remember AOL?

TMZ Fun Game: Try explaining this guy to anyone without using the words "American Idol" at least once. It's basically impossible.
