Girlfight!: Blake Lewis vs. Sanjaya

Blake Lewis is really bothered by Sangina Malakar. Actually, he's probably just bothered by everyone that is more popular than he is!

Last week, Idol runner-up Lewis was on the radio talking about how "boring" David Archuleta is, even though David seems to be one of this season's crowd favorites.

Blake was also open about disliking Malakar and has even called the American Idol viewers "ignorant" for voting for him.

Blake called Sangina a very "disrespectful little kid", saying he was “disrespectful of people’s boundaries” and since he “didn’t have a father figure in his life” he needed to teach Sangina a lesson. He claimed at times he would even lock Malakar out during the American Idol tour.

Douche!

During an interview with WAPE FM 95.1 in Jacksonville, FL, Blake revealed that the only reason Sangina even made it through was because his sister made the cut. Originally, Sangina didn't make it but when his sister passed the producers decided to add him back in. Or so he claims.

Blake continues that he was never a fan of Sangina and that he should have never been on the show. "Why is this little kid that's just annoying on the show… I don't think he should have been on the show at all. It's just bad for television, terrible, terrible television."

Could the resentment be an underlying love?

Can you say HOMOPHOBIC! Blake is the basic white dude that is so worried that people are going to think he's gay (and he probably is) that he has to lash out at gays so no one will think he's gay.

As for, Sanjaya- He did suck but Blake Lewis aint got no room to talk.

I have to agree with Blake on this one. Sanjaya is free to tell his side of the story but, oh wait, nobody is interestered in interviewing him. Perez, this is old news.

i was really annoyed by sanjia and stuff, like sure he was nice and stuff but like he cant sing. blake is hot, and can sing and has his own way by adding beat boxing and hes good at it but whatever.

I doubt David Archuleta gives a crap what Blake thinks of him. TPTB are waiting with baited breath for the show to end so they can make loads of $$$ off of him - win or no win. That kid is the best thing EVER to happen to AI!
Nicole says – reply to this

111

Blake is completely right, and don't hate on him just because he speaks his mind. We have no many celebrities out there who watch what they say so they talk like they're walking on egg shells. Why scold a guy for being honest?? Even if you don't agree with him, leave him be..its just HIS opinion, no one said it has to be yours.

Blakes album is REALLY good btw, go listen perez….then talk.
Rich Chrisardson says – reply to this

Leave blake alone……… let him speak his mind. Plus he's right. Sanjaya is annoying….

Thank You
Lisa says – reply to this

113

Ok Perez…Let me start by saying that I adore Blake Lewis and the originality that he's bringing to the music industry. And I agree with him on both accounts–Sangia should not have been an American Idol finalist and David Archuleta is boring. He is certaintly not my favorite.

After listening to that horrible album Blake Lewis put out, he is in NO place to be criticizing anyone else's artistic talents. It was horrible! I'm sure Blake is just jealous that more people are STILL talking about Sanjaya than ever talked about him.

4cap says – reply to this

135

This is so old news. Blake's comments are being twisted by Perez–Blake has explained everything already at a more up-to-date source like rickey org:

Yooooooo…… This is Blake. I usually never got on these things, but want to clear up some things for you all. first. Sanjaya…. I have nothing against this boy, but on the show I was frustrated at his progression. After being on Tour and finding out hes actually a pretty cool kid changed my opinion. Would I have put him on the show, maybe not. Still love the lil dude.

David, David A. and MR. Eze… Now that I have seen all the new season… as of this week. new light has shined. I found out that David Cook did my Boys Doxologys version of Eleanor Rigby and was stoked, but then he gave them no props. Later to find out he did, but the cut it off the show. He and Eze E and my favorites thus far. Just my Alumni Opinion. Kind of rooting for a dude to win it this year. Although Brooke and Carly are holding it down. David A. is as well, when I called him boring it was just out of the fact that I want this kid to do well. He needs to get out of his box. He clearly has mass talent and a killer voice. I just want to see him out of his comfort zone and to get away from his dad for a minute. His dad is nice, I can just see the pressure. Thats all. I’m not a hater. I’m a huge fan of this year. It was one of the best experiences of my life.

Love and happiness - Blake Lewis

Blake likes Sanjaya, he just got annoyed with him at times. My sister was older than I and locked me out at times too. Nothing wrong with that. People complain that they want Blake to go away, then they turn around and post this type of garbage. Blake must have something going for him or else why would you even bother making a rukus out of something so unimportant?

CLH says – reply to this

140

Okay, first of all, I think Perez needs to get his facts straight before coming out his face with some bogus ish. Blake NEVER EVER said he disliked Sanjaya. Blake openly said he likes him. I am sure Sanji could get annoying- he's just a kid. If you had someone bothering you when you were trying to sleep after being up for days on end, you'd get pissed off too. Blake has NO beef with Sanjaya. They are just two different people who weren't best friends, but got along just fine. If anything, Sanjaya should be thankful Blake was there to tell it like it is. Besides… why the eff bomb are people still concerned about something that happened last year?? Geez. No one is hurt by it, so get over it already. Blake is a great guy (I know first hand) who gets along with everyone. The man is just living his life to the fullest. Give him a break. He's human. He shouldn't have to justify everything people take out of context, yet he does anyway, repeatedly. And for what? For people like you not to hear him out because your set on Sanjaya being "perfect"? He's not! GET OVER IT and move on!!!!
Alex says – reply to this

141

jesus christ, he talks about that the viewers were "ignorant" on voting on him. Then… what does that make him? Beating on that sanjaya don't have a father figure in his life?

I'm no fan of Sanjaya whatsoever, but I get sick of people picking on other people claiming that their ignorant, when they are extremely ignorant themselfs…

For all I care, that fugly-looking-bastard could go fuck a tree and then call it "ignorant" for not calling him up the next morning.

I guess the only attention he can get is to name drop people more popular then him.

Blake was no better singer then Sanjaya at times he was even worse. But the judges never called him out on his shit.

Mel says – reply to this

146

That may be a cocky thing to say, but he's right. Sanjaya was AWFUL and made a mockery out of American Idol. It's unheard of that someone that horrific would have made it to the top ten and now be part of their tour! I'd rather scratch my eyes out than listen to him sing (Although I did cringe with amusement when he rocked his "faux hawk"…lame)

148

Ok, first I must say I never liked Sanjaya… Still don't! I also never liked Blake. Blake really shouldn't be talking to much smack!!!! The guy didn't have that great a voice, it wasn't bad but it wasn't good… that is when he was singing!!! We saw him spit all over the mic more than he sang. Oh and the one song that he did and it sounded good he took all the credit for. Everyone loved the song and thought it was so ORIGINAL however 311 covered that same song and sang it EXACTLY like he did. POSER

Yeah, cause your so fucking talented Blake. You couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. The only reason you got as far in the competition, is your beatboxing, not your singing, douch. Without it you would have been "boring" too. You are just a low rent Justin Timberlake, without the talent. It's been done before and your fifteen minutes are almost up.

Whoever wrote this "article" is the worst freakin liar in the world. If you're going to make up stories about people, you should at least look into the spelling of names. Its Sanjaya with a J not a G.
And Blake Lewis has no reason to be jealous of Sanjaya because he's 100% more talented than Sanjaya. Blake has an album..Sanjaya doesn't..that says it all. Sanjaya wasn't AI material and Blake was just being honest..something you might want to look into.

Facts:

1. Sanjaya sucks

2. Blake is a douche

3. Blake should have never been on the show and should have never been on the top 2.

4. Don't believe number 3? Look at her album sales. The guy sucks at singing and the beatboxing is getting old. He was a novelty on AI. He is a nobody in the REAL music industry…go back to performing at bars biatch.

5. Blake Lewis has a juicy, sexy fat ass.

6. I would like to tap that juicy ass.

7. I'm gay.

8. Blake Lewis fans are ignorant.

I agree that Shanjia is annoying but Blake doesn't have to be such a bitch about it! That is being a real douche. And FYI, David Archeledo is fantastic not boring. I thought blake was a good person but I guess his ego got the best of him. That bastard!
AJ1220 says – reply to this

162

Sanjaya was horrible, but Blake is just being an ass. His album has tanked and there's no hope for his singing "career" so he has to lash out at every one else? Pretty damn pathetic. The guy needs a reality check, since the last time I heard he has a mediocre at best voice. The ONLY reason he made it where he did was because of his beatboxing and the fact that he was on the worst season ever for male talent, and he had the tween girl appeal to help him. Maybe he should take a good look in the mirror before calling other contestants boring and the people that probably voted for him ignorant. So glad his album has bombed after reading this.

could it be that the beat boxing bitch is bitter that his cd sold around 10 copies and that David Archuleta will probably reach platinum status in record time. Talentedless little bitch! And by the way, Sanjaya as annoying as he is made for good tv.

blake is the most forgetable idol contestant yet. bland. boring. dull. He should remember grandma's rule, "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all". Why would I care about his opinions? He is just as annoying as Sanjaya. As a matter of fact, they're all annoying.

Blake is annoying. It's not like he's some amazing musician either. Maybe he shouldn't be so quick to insult the "ignorant" public. After all, it was the same ignorant public kept him around until the finals, while Melinda Doolittle went home even though she was a hundred times better than he was.

HELLO! this is television here! Sanjaya brought in the viewers and publicity and Blake is fat ass nobody with the ugliest cd cover in the history of man. By saying these comments, he is only giving Sanjaya more credit by insinuating that this was ALL Sanjaya's plan. Obviously the higher powers within American Idol, not to mention the viewers that voted for him, played a part. Once you start becoming jealous of Sanjaya, your life is pretty much OVER.

And Blake can do more than beat box. Have you heard his cd? He doesnt' do much beat-boxing in it at all.

sheely says – reply to this

189

I don't see anything wrong with what Blake said about Sangina. I don't agree about Archuleta, that little cutie is the best damn thing on the show. But nobody should be shocked that the other contestants harbored resentments about Sangina. I would imagine that it was very disappointing to see that talentless piece of crud skate through the competition like that. It actually makes me like Blake. The guy needs to get his crap together though and notice Archuleta's skills. That little guy can belt it.
sheely says – reply to this

190

Actually, let me edit my comment. David Archuleta is kinda boring and humorless but he's damn adorable. Blake didn't really say anything about his talent so I guess what he said isn't that bad. Luckily, being boring doesn't hurt you in this competition. Pretty much every winner so far is freakishly boring.

196

although I agree with Blake, I think he's started to get a big head. For one thing, it was the judges fault for Sanjaya being there in the first place. But it was stupid he stayed for so long, and that is Americans' fault. It's not really Blake's business. And for the comment about Archuleta being boring, well obviously blake is into something else, is it beat boxing or well, Sanjaya. Archuleta has the best voice in the world as far as I'm concerned, what, is Blake and expert now, lol. Definately NOT. he wasn't that great
jenjen says – reply to this

197

blake def has a point! sanjina is super annoying and talentless; he did not, and does not, deserve the "fame" that american idol brought to him. however, blake should keep these opinions to himself, especially seeing as how he is somewhat in the public eye. bad taste, and poor class. but i love blake anyway
