She did that FOUR YEARS ago and it still got her eliminated?!

It's cool though. I have a feeling with haven't seen the last of her or heard the last of her beautiful strong voice.

Even though I don't watch AI, I heard on the radio this AM that Kelly, the winner from last season was in a movie that had a "gay" theme.

I guess that was found out after the fact.

Also, it was mentioned that it the real deal is that her look isn't that of an American Idol. If this is the case and she is meant to make it into the 'biz', it will happen. Usually, instances like this will usually help one's career.

Good Luck, Frenchie!

Frenchie was not the only one. According to Russ Parr, Nikki McKibbin from last season was a strippper!! And she made it to the Top 10.

C-O-Nspiracy.

Frenchie was too much for them though and everyone KNOWS she has star potential oozing out of her. I was really

@ porn though. My GAWD!!

I guess it was ok for one of the two finalists from Joe Millionaire to participate in "Porn" activities but not Frenchie.

On another note, I will watch CED tonight ONLY to see the American Idol spoof of Cedric from St. Louis. They even have this CEDRIC wearing the yellow suit, hat and doo rag.

"American Idol" Star Bounced
Frenchie fingered for faux kiddie porn pix

Evan Marriott's brief career as an underwear model wasn't a problem. And "Joe Millionaire" contestant Sarah Kozer's starring role in dozens of bondage and fetish films also was of no concern to Fox Television. But the network has bounced an "American Idol" contestant because the woman once posed nude for an Internet porn site.

Frenchelle "Frenchie" Davis, the 23-year-old singer canned by Fox, was a fan favorite and had been tabbed last week by Entertainment Weekly as one of the program's leading six contenders. According to a TSG source, Davis posed topless (and appeared to be masturbating) on "Daddy's Little Girls," a web site that purported to feature naked underage girls (which, of course, would be illegal). However, at the time she posed for these photos, Davis was over 18. The Washington, D.C. native has claimed that she took the topless gig to earn money so that she could re-enroll in Howard University, where she is a theater major. In a recent interview, when asked about the proudest moment of her life, Davis said, "Other than getting back in school after not having the money and not being there for a year," American Idol "has been the proudest moment 'cause I worked so hard."

All traces of Davis's involvement in "American Idol" have been stripped from Fox's web site, a banishment nearly as abrupt as the ones delivered by judge Simon Cowell. The network's decision to can Davis has been blasted by followers of the show who have been flooding fan sites with complaints. A typical beef--posted in an online petition calling for Davis's reinstatement--stated, "American Idol will no longer hold my interest if Frenchie Davis is gone. She was the voice and talent. Every other contestant is extremely(!) bland, boring and not the least bit intriguing. Give America what they want and bring Frenchie Davis back!"

With her brassy voice and large frame, Davis has drawn comparisons to Aretha Franklin. In describing Davis and fellow contestant Kimberley Locke, Entertainment Weekly wrote, "From the second these two bodacious beauties strutted their stuff on stage, all those navel-baring lightweights should have headed home." A Fox spokesperson told USA Today, which first reported Davis's departure, that the singer will be replaced on the February 25 "American Idol" telecast.

I don't know why Frenchie was canned if there was a girl from last year who used to be a stripper. While I don't agreee with what Frenchie did, I think they should let her sing. If the AMERICAN public does not like her for any reason then WE should be able to vote for that. Next week I don't even see anyone who looks like they can have my vote.

And how in the hell are they gonna fire Frenchie from AI and in the same breath talk about trying to hook her up with an entertainment company or whatever?? What kind of contradictory isht is that???? BOOO to American Idol and Fox.

At least we still have Ruben and Kimberley to rally for, but it won't be the same without Frenchie.

Frenchie was on Entertainment Tonight tonight and talked about getting booted. She says that she told the producers up front that she had appeared on that website 4 years ago. She said that the website is now under new ownership and did not deal with child porn when she worked for them. She was interviewed by Paula Abdul, who is ET's special correspondent. Frenchie also said that she is upset that they decided to take her off the show so late in the process. She also sang the song she was going to sing during her perfomance. The song was "I Have Nothing" by Whitney Houston. You might remember this song from The Bodyguard soundtrack.

Boooooooooo to AI for letting Frenchie go!!!!
