Many of the doubters predicted that once American idol wannabe Sanjaya Malakar got on stage and tried to carry a tune it would finally all go bad. His performances during season six of American Idol were atrocious at times and even though he made it toi the top ten that said more about the horrid voting on the popular reality show than the talent of Sanjaya. Was he just a novelty act waiting to crash.

American Idol Disaster: Sanjaya Malakar on Stage

TMZ seems to think so. The AOL Entertainment web site blisters the shy singer online reporting that "The talent-free hairball that is Sanjaya is on the "American Idol" summer tour, and wouldn't you know it, he still can't sing a lick!"

Indeed. Their cameras caught up with the vocally challenged Idol in Greenville, South Carolina where he successfully turned a cover of the classic "Life is a Highway" into road kill -- singing only a couple of the right words, running out of breath mid-performance, and resorting to the same head-shaking antics that previously made you want to throw your television out the nearest window. A little pitchy!

Chris Sligh joined Sanjy on stage, but looked like he didn't want anything to do with the singing part of the "performance" -- quietly playing his guitar on the opposite side of the stage while the lyric butchering commenced. While my guitar gently weeps!
