Edited to add: unfortunately YouTube removed the video that went along with this post. Just imagine someone singing The Cars’ “Drive” with a mouth full of rocks or belting out “Another Day in Paradise” as if it were a sexy, sexy love song (complete with hip swivels).
The one TV show that we watch regularly here is Deutschland Sucht den Superstar, the German version of American Idol. We justify this guilty pleasure by noting that it’s good for the husband’s German to watch shows in the language, but really we just love watching bad singers with worse English skills try to do what they never should: sing in English.
Now it’s late enough in the season that the remaining singers are actually pretty good, so the brilliant producers brought back this guy, Menderes, to do a little low-brow entertaining this week.
Yet again, you’ve robbed me of several minutes of my life that I’ll never get back. The least you could do would be to send free gelato to all of those who made it through this video…
she bang’s…
Oh Monica, if only gelato were that portable…
And how sad is it that I know exactly what anonymous is referring to? 🙂
Read the news… Wow! It was not my intention to be so accurat. Just wanted compare contestants.
Not so sure bad singing show contestants counts as news…
talking about news: she bangs yodeling master singer and american idol contestant William Hung od’d on heroin last night in las vegas
The William Hung over-dosing story is a rather old urban legend/ bad joke:

I think that one Lauren Talbot contestant is pretty awful. I can’t believe she is still on the show, and they haven’t brought her back as a joke to butcher another song.
You can’t make me click! My eyes and ears are still sore from all the bleeding they did when I watched Menderes live last Saturday. And whoever that woman is that they were showing all the time needs to figure out that she’s not a cute 12 year old anymore. No! I’m having a flashback now! Must… go…
