This is the perhaps the funniest American Idol story I’ve ever heard!
So last week American Idol, let it’s watchers think it did a nice thing by allowing a Anoop join the Top 12, thus making it a Top 13. First off, you should know that this choice all came down to money. Last year producers decided they wouldn’t be doing an American Idol Give Back special, which meant a week of lost ad revenue. Fox wasn’t obviously going to let this happen, so by making it a Top 13, the network ensures they get as much money out of the kareoke giant as possible.
But that’s not the funny part…
According to Votefortheworst.com, there is no number for tonight’s 13th singer. You see voters usually dial 1-866-IDOLS-## (whatever number their Idol is). Naturally you would think the 13th singer would either get 00 or 13, right?
Wrong. You know what happens when you dial 1-866-IDOLS-00 or 1-866-IDOLS-13?
PORN, PORN AND MORE PORN.
Those poor child voters have no idea what they are in for!
Especially if they were already confused about who their “daddy” was!
So see some genius company (my guess is Brian Dunkelman) bought those numbers out years ago, knowing that sometimes people would dial the wrong number!
Producers haven’t addressed the issue yet, but it should be pretty interesting.
Well played Dunkelman.
