Was flipping the channels on Sunday evening and started watching the end of American Idol on Channel Ten. Managed to catch the interview and performance of William Hung.

This civil engineer to-be, who was originally from Hong Kong and is now studying in Berkley, got in front of the judges and all of America. He sang “She Bangs” from Ricky Martin, accompanied by some dance moves (sure to appear in lots of Asian dance parties).

While Randy (judge) covered his face and Simon (pommy judge) tried making the smart arse comments he normally makes, Hung didn’t let it get to him. He accepted the criticism, politely thanked the judges, and didn’t cry or bitch after his audition.

Perhaps if other Idol hopefuls could follow his example, and make the show less of an insult exchange, it would finally spark less interest and the TV networks would stop making money from all the phone calls and smses! Don’t give that pom the satisfaction of taking anyone down!

He has been mentioned in heaps of blogs all over the internet, and has also been on radio shows.
