Racy 'Idol' photos cause a stir - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Brian Damage · 02-22-2007, 11:36 PM

To quote VotefortheWorst.com, "Let the train wrecks begin!" And they should know. The site that has made a name for itself by dogging and taunting "American Idol," urging the public to vote for a contestant it deems as "the worst," is at it again.

On its site are a series of pictures of someone they identify as semi-finalist Antonella Barba of Point Pleasant, N.J., that are, um, probably shots she'd rather not have floating around the Internet, including one of her on the toilet and another of her making an obscene gesture.

Barba was named by Yahoo! Buzz the semi-finalist most researched by its search engine. She gained fame during the competition from a cheesecake video "Idol" ran of her and her best friend and co-contestant, Amanda Coluccio, frolicking in the surf.

The pair also gained notoriety for what some saw as their contributing to the elimination of Idol wannabe Baylie Brown, a promising 16-year-old who joined the two for the group sing. (Coluccio was dismissed during a later round.)

Will the photos affect Barba's pursuit of the "American Idol" title? A Fox spokeswoman said that the network declined to comment.

During season two, an early favorite, Frenchie Davis, was removed from the competition after racy pictures of her surfaced on the Internet. The 12 female semi-finalists are scheduled to perform Wednesday night at 8 on FOX/5.

Antonella is a crappy singer, but everyone's going to vote for her cuz she's pretty.

Sadly, I have to agree. Maybe this will get her kicked off though

All I know is, if Lakisha, Melinda, Stephanie, Jordin, or Sabrina get cut before Antonella, I will be so incredibly PO'd!

If you think this is bad, wait until her REAL bombshell goes mainstream in a couple of days.

EmoJoe · 02-23-2007, 06:51 PM

her recent pictures are even worse.

i used to like antonella, but i dont like her at all anymore. i kinda hope she even gets DQed for this.

Karen* · 02-23-2007, 06:59 PM

If Frenchie got disqualified for lingerie photos, it definitely wouldn't be fair to keep Antonella after this.
