Sanjaya: Finger Lickin' Good?

Composite of Sanjaya with a bowl haircutSanjaya Malakar is getting fried this week!

Kentucky Fried Chicken
has offered the "American Idol" wannabe a free lifetime supply of their Famous Bowls if the 17-year-old hirsute crooner sports a bowl hairdo in one of his next televised performances.

In an open letter to Sanjaya, KFC President Gregg Dedrick writes, "We're sure America will be as 'bowled-over' by your take on this classic look as they are by our KFC Famous Bowls."

In addition to the poultry perks, KFC will also make a contribution in Sanjy's name to Colonel Scholars, a charity that provides young people with college scholarships. Who knew bad singing and funny weaves could do so much good?!

Last year, Katharine McPhee was offered $10,000 and a year's supply of their Famous Bowls to write and star in a KFC ad.

16. This is a beautiful example of shameless marketing and this is exactly why Sanjaya will not be voted off this week.

23. So sad, A.I. is losing its credibility. EVERYBODY needs to vote and get that guy outta there! WHAT A JOKE! If he had any self-respect, he would remove himself from the competition. I too will stop watching if this continues. I swear, on my father's grave, next week I will vote as much as I can AGAINST that guy, and if he remains, I STOP watching.

EVERYONE PLEASE!! VOTE AGAINST SANJI!! NEXT WEEK JUST DO IT!!!! STOP THIS INSANITY!!!!!

25. KFC tortures chickens. It would be in extremely bad taste for Sanjaya to support the kind of abuse that KFC inflicts on animals.
