While Simon Cowell may just wish to bury Sanjaya Malakar in the deep dark recess of his memory, over the next 2 ½ months the faux-hawked one will be front and center, ruining songs all over the United States while he’s on the ‘American Idol’ tour. The sharp tongued Cowell can’t be pleased.
Having started the American Idols tour on July 6 in Sunrise, Florida Malakar has already been noted for mangling his rendition of “Life is a Highway.” It probably won’t get much better and unfortunately there is no way to vote the youngster off the tour.
With the bad there comes the good and that means American Idol winner Jordin Sparks will be performing in front of the fans who voted her Season 6 champion. Along with Sparks, runner-up Blake Lewis will be brining his beat-box skills back for another listen.
The “American Idols Live Tour” is comprised of the top ten finalists from Season 6. Joining Malakar, Sparks and Lewis will be Melinda Doolittle, Gina Glocksenm, Haley Scarnato, LaKisha Jones, Chris Richardson, Chris Sligh and Phil Stacey.
