And the award goes to ... Carmen Rasmusen

Abstract:
The only thing more satisfying in life than bearing witness to one's success is to watch them ultimately crash and burn. That's precisely why we have "American Idol," the only current TV show that receives equal attention on both sides of the talent fence. It's far more entertaining to see contestants verbally stoned by rapid-firing judges than it is to share in the fairytale ending of the champion. ...

TMZ is nothing but a load of crap gossip show. They don't bother to check for facts, and the stretch the stories into worse falsehoods than they start out to be. TMZ exploits celebrities for their own benefit. They love "dirt" and if there isn't any they make it seem like there is. The sanctimonious reporters on there ought to put their "real lives" out there. I bet not a single one of them are squeaky clean. They just want to put down the celebs to make themselves look good. Plus, they are homophobes and people should just tune them out--you won't get facts there.

"They are only presenting the type of "juicy" stories that the market wants to hear."

Paul,

Here's where you're mistaken. As an "average" woman from an "average" demographic, I am NOT at all interested in the crap that TMZ spews. I've often wondered who their "market" actually is. Who actually reads their crap?

"Juicy" stories? More like salacious lies, innuendo, gossip and anything they can "manufacture" or "distort" to embarrass and demean celebrities, who -- SURPRIZE, TMZ! -- are real people with real feelings.

What the heck ever happened to dignity and respect?

I agree, TMZ made it look like Carmen was not happy with what Clay has accomplished. However, to be truthful, her singing was not all that great on idol.
She has turned into a good singer. I heard her first single from her latest CD. It was quite good. Her voice has improved a lot. I know they she is friends with Clay and wouldn't diss him publicly. Good luck to her on her album and in the future.
