Scott MacIntyre

Scott MacIntyre wrote a blog that he was set to do a dueling piano performance with Matt Giraud at the finale, but it was cut out of the show. Seriously? That might have actually been interesting. Scott has a fun sense of humor, and even though Matt Giraud never showed it during the show, the other contestants said he was pretty funny too. It probably would have actually been something worth watching. Scott blogged:

"We got to the Nokia Theatre on Wednesday morning (show day) and out of the blue about 9:30am found out the duet had been cut and the decision was final. Needless to say, I was shocked. American Idol had originally invited Billy Joel himself to perform with us, but he was unable to make it in the end; and because our duet was the only duet not involving another celebrity, it was the first thing to be cut when the show was condensed. Over the last few days I have tried to reason this out every way possible, and it makes no sense to me why one of the most compelling and unique performances of the show would be cut simply because the original artist wasn’t present. (Perhaps Tatiana and Bikini Girl were more important after all… :P) There will most likely not be another set of competent pianists on the show anytime soon, and this would have been an opportunity to make American Idol history."

Well wait a minute, Scott. Tatiana is much more important than 99% of the contestants. This is a fact. But I don't think anyone would have cared if Gokey didn't get to sing. No one likes him. Ken Warwick also promised Scott that he will get to come back and perform on a results show next year to make up for it. Ken will likely break this promise because he is a soulless fuckboob.

Paula Abdul Gets Scott MacIntyre a Seeing Eye Dog

Paula Abdul apparently gave Scott MacIntyre a seeing eye dog as a present. That was a very nice gesture from Ms. Rehabdul. Though we have to wonder why he didn't have one in the first place if he's been visually impaired for so long. Ah well, any excuse to see more updates on Scott, he's a Worster at heart. Now if only someone could get Paula a dog that could speak coherently and navigate her around when she's messed up out of her mind, that would be a very nice gesture as well.


Scott MacIntyre on Jimmy Kimmel

Scott MacIntyre shows just why we love him and his sense of humor as he plays a game of Name That Celebrity on Jimmy Kimmel Live, even though he can't see the pictures. He still wins anyway with a little help from our other favorite finalist this year, Megan Joy. It's like a VFTW reunion. Love you guys! Wish you were still on the show.


Scott Says He Deserved More Credit, Calls Out the Judges

Posted by againstallodds on April 10th, 2009 at 10:57 AM

In a polite, yet awesome way, Scott MacIntyre calls out the judges in a People Magazine article. Scott says, "It happens all the time — the judges say one thing and then they ridicule you for following their advice." So true, Scott. So why did you take Paula's advice to stop playing the piano then? "I really felt like it would be a tremendous surprise to America if they saw me with an electric guitar on my shoulder. [I thought] they’d be hanging on the edge of their seat waiting for me to play that first chord." Well yeah, but unfortunately you listened to the judges. You should've just sang "I Wear My Sunglasses at Night" and camped up the blind thing to have fun with it. Idol needs more of that.


Scott MacIntyre on American Idol Extra

Check out Scott on American Idol Extra, who is amazingly gracious when the host asks if he plays video games. HE'S BLIND! But he does have an excellent sense of humor, so the interview is good. We'll miss ya, Scotty. Video from MJ's Big Blog, and here's part 2).


America Hates Blind People. You Motherfuckers.

It was close in votes, but Scott was given the whole heave-ho by 30,000 votes. That was a close one for us and we almost saved him, but at least we got to have fun for a week and have a Braille banner. As if the judges were going to save him, they just deliberated to patronize Scott because he's blind. Also, we learned America is a bunch of prejudiced idiots. How could you vote off the blind guy? HOW? This is against the Americans With Disabilities Act. Any fake lawyers want to take our case? Scott can't even see his going away video. This is sad, but as always, there is always a worst, and we will pick the next person. Chime in on our radio show and share your opinion on who we should pick, and we'll have a poll up soon.


The search is definitely over. Scott has won us over as the new VFTW pick. Dial 1-866-436-5705 as much as you can, because he had one of the performances that didn't stand out tonight and he could easily go home. But between his sense of humor about himself, his lack of stage presence, and his subpar vocals, how can we not choose him? But again, he could easily go home this week, so don't rest. Even a blind man can see that he needs our help. And if you don't vote for him, you're a terrible person for insulting someone with a handicap. Why would you do that?

In case you're still not convinced: Imagine Scott staying while any of the others go home. Gokey. Kris. Lil. Whoever. People would be PISSED. That is the sign of a true Worster. The elimination tomorrow can either be boring and predictable (Scott leaves) or hilarious (anyone else leaves). Your call, America. But you know you want to join the Brailley Bunch!
