Sanjaya Stir

Either you love him or hate him, right? Hmm, what's that saying about hate being close to love? We all know everyone is talking about Sanjaya from American Idol and Comcast has gone so far as to offer a video called "Sanjaya Rehab", asking this all important question - Do we need rehab from Sanjaya? In the vid, a so-called expert states that we're all too obsessed with celebrities and we need to focus on other things. Ok, so yeah, that's a bit true. She suggests meditating and asking ourselves why we're so obsessed, I guess. Sounds like she's just a tad bitter. I don't know about everyone else on the planet, but here's the reasons why I like Sanjaya. He appears to be a very polite, well mannered, well brought up young man. He's soft spoken, shy. The mother in me immediately wants to hug him & tell him everything is ok and not to listen to all the naysayers. He does seem to have a genuinely good singing voice. And he's adorably cute. I'm not obsessed over a celebrity. I don't see Sanjaya as being a celebrity. I see a young man who is well mannered and soft spoken and polite who is chasing a dream and I want to see him do well. If he wants to win, he has to work for it. Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. He's the only person who knows for sure whether or not he's giving it his all. I don't really care. MY MOST IMPORTANT POINT IS THIS... I applaud him for chasing his dream, for taking action instead of being like most other 17 yr olds his age who choose to sit on the couch and play X-Box and whine because their parents won't buy them the latest BMV. So you go, Sanjaya!
