Sanjaya
Manolo says, the Manolo does not usually follow the American Idol, as his tolerance for cheese and schmaltz is surprisingly low, however, he is now unable to ignore the rise of this Sanjaya person.
So, he has very nice hair, yes?
Unfortunately, as everyone acknowledges, his singing voice, unlike his hair, lacks texture and depth and volume, although by the usual American Idol singing standards, in which molto fortissimo fortissimo is considered just the good start, this is not necessarily the bad thing.
What he does have is the innocent and naive charm, and the undeniable stage presence that can only come from being sweet, sassy, and seventeen.
Who cares if the Sanjaya can sing? This competition is not really about the singing, it is really about the television, and the sparkly, bouncy, dippy Sanjaya is good television. Undoubtedly, he has the great future ahead of him.

I can’t stand him. He’s got no talent and he’s annoying.
I think he’s just being kept around because he appeals to the pre-teen demographic.

The applause for him is always so deafening….that why you can’t hear the audience saying “Whew! Glad that’s over!”

[…] I was ambushed in a surprising way by The Manolo, who yesterday posted this. My first reaction was: Oh. My. God. My second reaction was: Oh! My! God! […]
