EXCLUSIVE! The X Factor's Astro Breaks The Rules BIG TIME!

11/18/2011 11:50 AM ET | Filed under: Exclusives! • X Factor

And no one is happy with him. No one.

A kid like Astro … he's got a lot of talent, but it sounds like he still has a lot of growing up to do. After he pulled some major tude last night when he fell into the bottom two, we got sent a story about his blatant disregard for the rules of the show and how the producers are NOT happy with him.

A source reports to PerezHilton.com EXCLUSIVELY that Astro consciously ignored the show's people when they told him he couldn't wear a pair of Dr Dre's Beats headphones around his neck during his performance this week. For whatever the reason - licensing, no affiliation wit Dr. Dre, etc. - the producers warned him not to disobey them, that it would cost them a lot of time and money if he did.

Yet he did it anyways!

As you can see in the video (above), because they didn't have the rights to the headphones, they had to blurred out. However, they were only able to do that AFTER the fact, since the show went up live. Who knows the repercussions they face from Dre. and his brand people now.

Show insiders add he's been VERY difficult to deal with the last couple of weeks, showing a lack of respect for staff and the rules.

Not cool little dude. You are NOT a star yet and these kind of antics will ensure that you never become one.

Does anyone not stop and just listen to what people say with their heart? Beyond the face value and where it comes from deep within?
.
He's been difficult for the past few weeks… 14, away from his mom for 30 days, and 3 weeks ago he started being difficult - do the math. I travel and my son and I talk about it, he misses me in an aching way…and it is only 2 or 3 days.
.
Kid has talent, intelligence, a work ethic and a single mom for much of his life, you can say you feel strong but without your source of strength hands on, it has to be overwhelming. Even in his package I could tell that what he was saying was less about what he actually felt and more aboutwhat he wanted to feel.

Re: ansy44 – Agreed, these threads bring out the bottom of the barrel. The creativity of this child should be rewarded, I hate that people have to see rap through racial eyes. Without the beats, it is poetry… and his ryhmes are easy to follow for everyone because he raps about feelings, and an industry that is mainstream Screw unevolved creatures like the folks on this thread.

Re: tenyearsgone – I went to a movie theatre last night full of white kids with their pants to the ground. I think your analogy is off. 3 blacks kids in tennis gear walk down the street, 3 white kids with saggy pants - ok… now what was your point?
.
F U people, just because a stereotype exists and has some crumb of validity does not make it justified to be a pig. And these comments are pig like, rude and uneducated. At the end of the day it is you and your ugly soul of a reflection that is judged by the universe, God, or just the legacy you leave behind. Jeez I wish I was home when this thread was alive… cause it suck arse and needed balance

Re: Dirtywhiteboy – Now what do you know about that? Careful, your true color is starting to show. Or at least your desire to be. FYI: I love a clean house, and the smell of chicken frying, the bread baking in the oven, and my beautiful family sitting at my beautiful table sharing, preparing, and progressing together. Enjoy your life. We can show you how.

Re: acmiles2010 – your ivy league degree that you got, not doubt, due to "affirmative action" and on the backs of every white person out there who paid your way through school. You can elevate them, but you can never wash the black off - Afro is proof of that….

let's just be clear: Black Pro Atheletes, movie stars, singers, and RAP "artists" are nothing more than swine. No matter how much money, designer labels, and how many Mercedez Benzes they have, they are still low-life gutter scum and "SWAG" is just another word for arrogance, ignorance and disrespectful, rude behavior!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You are not cool. You are just fools.

Re: TheRave –

Your racism in both of your posts is disgusting. And you're so ignorant you don't even know it.
The top rappers SELL MORE ALBUMS THAN ANY GENRE EXCEPT POP.

Guess what, 95% of the sales aren't from kids in the ghetto, their bought by suburban caucasian people in whatever segregated town you live in.

You racist idiots don't even realize what he's doing takes tons more talent than any of these other dime a dozen singers who come by the hundreds. You realize he's writing his own stuff every week too? Have you even listened to the message and the intelligence in his lyrics?

No you haven't cause half of you here are ignorant. Go back to 1960 where white people had their own fountains, some of you make me sick.

Re: Dirtywhiteboy – Racist are funny, but mostly just pathetic and overrated. A "Racist" is a hater who uses appearance as a guise to coverup their feeling that the other person sparks in the of inadequacy/ jealousy . So what if they come up with stupid terms to throw around to try to make up for their petiness, I stop taking such mentals seriously a long time ago
P.S. You embarrass yourself , and other whites ,with a name like Dirtywhiteboy, perhaps you don't realize due to the possibility your mentaly underdeveloped, or perhaps inbred and denied schooling because you had to help raise your younger siblings/aunts and uncles, in anycase I'll pray for you Dirty

He came off negatively to me in the first interview they ran of him. That kid thinks he's got it all in the bag, but he's now realizing he doesn't have ANYTHING nailed. He's talented, but he needs to cook for a few more years and grow some humility. His mother may cook him great meals, but she hasn't told him when to shut up and explained what true stars in this world are all about. Except for the Kardashians that is

Re: ritakatya –
Let me see if I got this right….not following direction and instructions on a show you voluntarily auditioned for and hope to win by impressing the judges/voters shows you have integrity and strength of character? That may be the silliest thing I have heard of.
If anything, it shows a poor attitude and lack of respect.

Dirtywhiteboy, I don't think you can understand half of the ironic hypocrisies you've just spewed, you barely conjugate a proper sentence. Wanna see ignorance, take a mirror and look take a look. Don't look too hard, wouldn't want you to hurt your face.

Oh and Whinteboy, you can't even differentiate between the correct forms of your and you're.

Gotta love it when a dumbass tries to look all smart.

Oh and Whiteboy, you get to tell people how to spell, when you can figure out the differences between your, and you're.

Re: acmiles2010 – No one cares about your Ivy League degree. You probably got to go to college because of a "being black" scholarship, just saying. Besides that doesn't ensure you a successful, high paying job…sounds like you're insinuating that you're superior to others on here. Fuck right off.

Being racist doesn't mean that you're redneck, uneducated, ignorant, etc. It means that you're aware of how people act and whatnot. Why do stereotypes exist? Why is it when I turn on my tv or get online every story I see is of blacks committing crimes or just being ghetto dumb asses?

I don't think L.A. understands what "mentoring" means! This kid's ARROGANCE is what is killing his popularity. America has seen his competion and knows some of these people have spent a lifetime trying to get their break and he hasn't even finished middleschool and EXPECTS the world to kneel before him in awe. WOW if L.A. doesn't put some reality in his pompous self-important skull then L.A. has failed Astro bigger than anyone!

Re: acmiles2010 – The producer is gutless and yes you are right he should have denied him access. The network and the production company are now looking at a potentially damaging trademark infringment lawsuit. I am speaking only for myself when I say this, "I don't like the kid because I am so sick of people who feel sel-entitled". You are right again, it is not a big deal…to me, but how about someone who has spent 60 years of his life to get his big chance… to see this 14 year old kid ungratefully insult and then deny his own fan base and still get moved forward. L.A. has not mentored this kid where it counts most…LIFE!

Send the cry baby home. He's a spoiled little brat and does not deserve to win the prize. We should not encourage such bad behavior.
