Sanjaya Breaks MySpace Hunger Striker

Posted Apr 2nd 2007 5:47PM by TMZ Staff

Sanjaya MalakarThe MySpacer who had gone 16 days without food in protest of Sanjaya Malakar's presence on "American Idol" has finally relented -- under doctor's orders.

"J," the one-letter moniker by which she is known to millions, says that she will continue to fight the good fight the old fashioned way: by voting for anyone other than Sanjaya.

She also implored anyone else staging a hunger strike to stop, and to stay tuned for a "voting strategy" for the coming weeks. Now she can be like everyone else, and lose her lunch while listening to Sanjaya.

31. Sanjaya has a far more interesting life than his critics. It must suck to be you and to be so jealous of someone else's happiness. Its pathetic when your only claim to fame is attacking someone for doing what he loves.

35. I think this goes to show the idiots we have in the world! You know the guy may not be the best singers, but a lot of other *stars* are not either. American Idols are a complete package and sometimes in the entertainment world, looks go much further than talent! Come on even Kelli Pickler knew what would shoot her to stardom and it was NOT her singing!

I have a 5th grader and the little girls in her class think Sanjaya is dreamy! I don't get what they are seeing myself, but they see something there. And these kids can and will loyally use the phone on his behalf even though his singing is not much to be desired (so he is not great, but come on people our judges did put him into the top 12!!) Week after week I hear them talking about watching and calling in votes on their phones, the house phone and even their parents' phones! Don't underestimate the preteens of our world....they are capable of a lot! Different people have different tastes and Sanjaya has scored with a loyal market who will stand behind him all the way! Get over it and realize everything is not about what just YOU like!

39. I was hoping that she would keep up the strike and die.

40. "J" it just doesn't make sense to get that wrapped up in a show like American Idol. Especially over someone like Sanjaya!! After all it is just a show, entertainment-oh so not worth risking your health and welfare.


Please step back away from your television set and hook back up with your friends and have some fun.

It is your life to live and starving is not the way to live.

If you need a cause to make yourself feel fulfilled in life, choose a worthwhile cause. AI or Sanjaya are not worthwhile!

45. HARVEY LEVIN IS THE WORLDS BIGGEST HYPOCRITE!!! He ridicules Star Jones on this website, then goes on Larry King and kisses her ass so he can promote TMZ. What kind of "Editor" is he!? Read and ridicule TMZ if you choose, but DO NOT support their sponsors. Harvey & Co do not deserve to be making $$$ off their "reportage." And they have the nerve to accuse Opri of bilking!!!!
