Sundance to Ryan: Arrogant Finalist Claiming Victory

The horribly bearded Sundance Head was booted from "American Idol" last night -- and today he admits there's one cocky SOB left in the bunch.


The rejected singer was on Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM morning show, where he said one of the guys remaining on the show -- whose name he wouldn't mention -- thinks he already has the competition in the bag.

Sundance also confessed he was shocked he was kicked off -- as the pseudo-vocal stylings of Sanjaya Malakar remained in the Top 12 -- saying, "I had not prepared myself for that ... I was a little angry ... at this point I'm just bitter this morning."

Head's elimination was only the first bad news he received yesterday, as OK! Magazine reveals he received word right after the taping that his cousin died in a fire that night. The cousin, Burl Head, had given Sundance $1500 for his stay in Los Angeles during the competition.

46. We'll miss you anotnella. Thank God Butch Sundance is gone. That show has gained some weight along with viewers.

47. I am not shocked he was voted off at all. If all the really good singers made it through and the hacks went home the show would be dull. Most people watch the show for the drama now not good singing. The show has turned into a joke. Maybe if Sundance poked Paula in the whiskers he would stil be there.

48. Sundance's version of Jeremy wasn't that good, but everything Mogli's done has SUCKED! I wish he'd go back to India and work Dell PC support.

49. I agree with #22 and have been saying this for ages............1 VOTE PER PERSON!!! I think it's on Dancing with the Stars where you can vote 10 times which is alright because there might be more than 1 person in a family and they each have a different choice. But this voting over and over just isn't fair. I was totally shocked that Sundance got voted off and that girly Sanjaya is still on. Every Indian must be voting for him. He is so dull and has no talent. The guy with the curly hair needs to do something with that mess. The guy can sing but he sure isn't what I would want to see as an American Idol. Glad the girl with the pictures on the Internet also got voted off......... FINALLY!!!!

50. Sundance...I am glad we dont have to look at your big fat bloated face taking up the entire tv screen anymore. You can't sing and you're fat. You should just get a job at Walmart or something.

51. It sounds to me like Mr. Head was the one with the ego. Not the mystery guy he dropped a dime on. He's a poor loser.

52. Sanjaya just proves that most of the people voting are young girls with cell phones glued to their ears.

GOD, that kid has no charisma and he can't sing. But then, neither could Antonella and look how long SHE stayed? That was SOOO embarrasing. How many times can she sing badly and how many times do the judges have to say, "Honey, you're just not good enough to even BE here anymore" before people stop voting for her. It's like they're voting like they would vote for a popular kid in high school. ......

53. While I don't think he should be dissing others on the show, he has every right to be bitter!! That Sanjaya person sucks!! Can you imagine standing that beside that no talent person, putting on that pouty sad face, and be the one voted off!?! I agree the the guys don't have a chance this season, Melinda and Lakisha rock, but my god America, vote the losers off, and soon!!

55. i think that Sundance should have made it. maybe he can try again next year. sue, from GEORGIA....

56. I think its Simon Cowell who is causing these results - I think he encourages a "sympathy" vote for the ones he attacks personally when he says things like "I don't even remember your name" to Haley or "You have hair like Paula only who has the extensions?" to Sanjaya. It is after all just like Simon says, a singing competition - not a hair or other looks competition. Simon needs to tone it down a little bit and maybe some of these obviously twisted votes will go away. I'm sorry too about Sundance and Sabrina - both of them deserved to stay in the Top 12. I don't know why I'm even watching this show anymore - its always the same unfair thing year after year!

58. I am sick of this show. It is supposed to be a singing competition. Explain how the worlds worst singer (Sanjaya) can stay on longer than Sundance. I dont think SUndance would have won, but he sure as hell deserved to be there longer than Sanjaya!!

59. I'm so sad Antonella is gone. Can you imagine? No more naked pictures. I'm trying to get by with the new Melinda Doolitle's naked pics.

Posted at 3:13PM on Mar 9th 2007 by Antonella_please_don't go! Don't gooooooo! don't go away...

60. Well Sundance Head maybe if you sang better you wouldn't have gotten the boot. He needs to be mad at himself, not stir up gossip on another contestant.
