Oh God, Danny Gokey has a single. It's terrible as you'd think it would be, trying to be inspirational but sounding corny as all hell.
This time Danny Gokey remembers the words while he performs. He does forget something else though... to zip his fly. About 45 seconds in, he realizes he's unzipped and goes to fix it. The crash and burn entertainment is coming even earlier than we expected! (Via TopIdol)
Even after Gokey mangled Billie Jean and everyone mocked him, he still can't get it together. In his first post-Idol concert, he still manages to forget the lyrics. Unprofessional.
We can't look like we're going soft. So... Danny Gokey is a dead wife whoring douchebag.
USA Today is announcing that Danny Gokey was signed to 19 Recordings/RCA Nashville, meaning the entire top 4 was signed to a record label that has ties with Idol. Sony Music Nashville chairman Joe Galante reacted to the deal by saying, "We absolutely love Danny. We haven't had anybody like that (in country) since Ronnie Milsap or T. Graham Brown." Ronnie Milsap and T. Graham Brown reacted by gathering a violent mob to burn down the Sony Music Nashville headquarters. No word yet on if there were any survivors.
Danny Gokey tells Entertainment Weekly in an Idolatry interview that the direction he's taking for his album is to record country music. Now, some country music fans will buy just about any formulaic crap put out (see: Carrie Underwood), but we can't think of any way Gokey can legitimize himself as a country artist. Country music fans are also some of the harshest critics, and if they think Gokey's a fake, he's gonna get an earful. This is why we are happy he chose country music: the new few months should be hilarious!
It shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that they don't like VFTW, but Danny Gokey and Matt Giraud were asked about our wonderful site by Kim Reed of the Examiner.
Finally before Giraud left I asked if they read reviews or blogs and both said, "not anymore." When asked if they read the funnier Idol related sites like Vote for the Worst or Idletard they briefly squirmed around and Danny changed voices in to a bit of a childish, whiny character and said, "What's Vote for the Worst?" Matt then chimed in, "no they're mean." I said true but at times they can be funny to which he replied, "not to us!"
Well Danny has plenty to dislike us for, but Matt, really? All we did was make fun of your boil, which you then got removed and now you look better. You should be thanking us. VFTW is the voice of truth. Thanks for the shoutout though, Kim!
Apparently, the Idols can't put out decent singles nowadays. Likely because it was failing miserably, Danny Gokey's label has switched his first single from the incredibly mockable "It's Only" to the only a little bit better "My Best Days Are Ahead of Me". The song isn't any good, but after "Its only Jesus, la da da da" it sounds like a masterpiece.
