'IDOL' SHOCKER INDEED!
..It took Jennifer Hudson's
exit from American Idol to shake me off from my stupor. Are Idol fans making a statement here? Is this becoming to be a battleground for ethnically ambiguous struggles to borrow the term? It would be interesting to watch who comes out victorious in this seeming culture war. Politicians should take a hint and watch the show. Although the youth never really immerse themselves totally in the political process and seldom vote, it still pays to get a feel on where pop culture is heading. Besides, those 13 million fans who tune in every Tuesday and Wednesday nights are potential voters, no?

REBUTTAL TO HUNTINGTON
..Huntington's
theory that Mexicans don't assimilate well compared to other immigrants and could therefore pose a threat to Anglo-Protestant America in the future is challenged.

A (WILLIAM) HUNG-JURY
..The
case against the exploitation of the most famous reject of "American Idol" is building. William Hung may represent what's good about America and the "American Dream" but there is a long history of Oriental stereotyping that Asian Americans find hard to forget. Why focus on his singing non-talent when we can focus on other aspects of his life that are worth emulating? People are just riding on his infamous gig in American Idol but they are really not serious about his singing. He is a collective result of people's deep-seated fantasy and yearning for fame that may never come for most. He should divert people's attention away from his singing by not accepting all these invitations to perform and instead focus on other things like the comic and intellectual abilities he's supposed to possess.

REALITY BITES 'THE SIMPSONS'
..Disputes on
contract extensions are holding up the hit show "The Simpsons" on Fox 5. I wouldn't be surprised if Fox outsources the voices on the show to India.
