Sundance Head

As the seventh season of American Idol has ended, Vote for the Worst has compiled a list of the 20 performances that make us actually take the time to watch Idol. These are not the 20 worst performances, nor are they 20 performances with bad singing. They are our 20 favorite, most entertaining performances that really define what VFTW is all about. Did your favorite make the list? Click "Read more" to see how the members of this site ranked our top 20, watch the performances again that you love, and check out some new ones you may have never seen that are true classics.


VFTW started off with a bang during season 6 of American Idol when we selected Antonella Barba and Sundance Head as our first two picks. Almost immediately, racy pictures of Antonella surfaced, causing a public outcry and a flood of support. Eventually, pictures appeared with an Antonella lookalike performing oral sex, and VFTW was the first website to prove that these pictures were without a doubt fake. After lasting 3 weeks longer than anyone expected, our porcelain princess and the big guy were voted out. We then selected Sanjaya Malakar as our pick, and what a whirlwind that caused!


American Idol 6 was the weirdest season yet, mostly because it was so boring. But some performances stood out as VFTW classics. Here is the list that was compiled by VFTW members that highlights our 10 favorite performances of the year. Some were great for their bad singing, some were great for their eccentricities, and some were great for one word only: Sanjaya.

 

10. Cheek to Cheek - Sanjaya Malakar
The favorite VFTW contestant of the year made a splash with his big band night performance when he came out dressed in an all white suit and slicked back hair. Afterwards, Simon mockingly called the performance "brilliant," to which Sanjaya shouted, "Welcome to the Universe of Sanjaya!" We loved it!

 


Some of the things people enjoyed the most about this season of VFTW were the hilarious caricatures of our 6 picks, done by artist Laura Hawbaker. Well, we're auctioning the original caricatures off on eBay, so you can own a piece of VFTW history. Only one copy of each caricature was made, so when they're gone, that's it. Make sure to bid on your favorites today, the auctions will run for one week. Each caricature is signed by the artist.

We lost our Worsters, but we had a great 3 week run with them! Sundance and Antonella were truly VFTW victories in a great sense, and now it's time to move on to the top 12 and a new phase of Worsthood. Who will we vote for? At this point, we've gotta embrace Sanjaya and take him as far as he can go ;)

Even though we haven't voted for him yet, Sanjaya is our man now! Let's help this kid get on the tour :)

Vote for Sundance! 1-866-IDOLS-03

Well, in the VFTW battle, all of the guys basically sucked, so we'll stick with Sundance. His screaming version of Jeremy was just horrendous and you could tell he thought he was great. Sanjaya was boring and Phil Stacy was the most off-key ever, but Sundance is the full FaFuTwo package. Is he the next coming of Scott Savol?

Either way, our real pick is still Antonella, so let's get Sundance to the top 12 and then Antonella too!

1-866-IDOLS-03. Dial it like you mean it, as of 9:08 Eastern, Sundance is in LAST on DialIdol. He needs SEVERE help.


One of the best episodes EVER. VFTW VICTORY!

This may be one of the most VFTW episodes of Idol EVER. Nick, AJ, Alaina, and Leslie went home. ManBearPig sheds tears, Alaina can't complete her sing out, Pickler comes back looking 40 and still sucks (with a much bigger butt), and ANTONELLA IS SAFE. I can't stop cheering. This is the best show on television, folks! We love you, Antonella, don't let us down next week.


New Caricatures

VFTW has acquired its own caricature artist, the lovely and talented Laura Hawbaker. She drew the almost too accurate pictures of Sundance and Antonella that now grace the banner at the top of the site. And when we pick someone new, expect an amazing new caricature each time. If you're interested in having Laura do a caricature or want to see more of her work, send us a message and we'll have her contact you.
