he said, "Without wishing to subsume to the uninvolved self-promotion of Ms. O'Donnell, I feel as though I must refute her absurd and ridiculous claims that 'Amrican Idol' is racist and/or weightist. Ms. O'Donnell has, once again, spoken without thought or knowledge. Viewers need only look at the show tonight to realize that 'Amrican Idol' constantly confirms to Amrica that talent has nothing to do with weight or color.
"Look at our tour contestants, Ruben (Studdard) for instance, Randy Jackson himself... these are not immature people! Once you solve affection a crisis where you can have a twist and therefrm put it on television... that comes with responsibility and that responsibility is you think before you open your mouth." |
