Dad Gets Son Kicked Off American Idol
American Idol contestant Michael Lynche has a good reason to be angry at his father thanks to an article in The St. Petersburg Times.
WTF?: American Idol Contestant’s “Pants On The Ground”
From The New York Post
An “American Idol” contestant picked last week for the Top 24 was booted over the weekend, according to reports.
The reason: his father told a local newspaper that his son made the semifinals, a violation of the show’s confidentiality rules.
Michael Lynche, called Big Mike on the show, was a high school football hero and his mother is a local columnist for the St. Petersburg (Fla.) Times, according to a report last week in her newspaper.
The paper reported that his father confirmed he’d made it to the Top 24.
The “Idol” spoiler site Joe’s Place, which has a history of digging up reliable inside info on the show’s contestants, reported over the weekend that Lynche has been replaced by another singer from the Top 50 qualifiers.
Most Ghetto American Idol Auditions Ever!
Fox declined to comment on the report yesterday.
The semifinalists are chosen at the end of Hollywood Week, when more than 120 hopefuls who got golden tickets in regional auditions move on to round two of the tryouts.
Lynche’s name appeared on several lists of the Top 24 contestants leaked on the Internet last week.
Lynche’s older brother, Marque Lynche Jr., made the “Idol” semifinals in 2004, but was cut before reaching the final 12, according to the Times’ report.
His Web site describes Lynche as a cross between Gnarls Barkley, Outkast and R. Kelly.

masculine31 – thank you.. i signed up just to post this comment – here is what you said..
“Obviously da Dad did NOT know! Whoever told on da dad is da blame 4 him gettin kicked off!”
First of all, people really DO NOT talk like that in the real world. You are really showing how much of an idiot you are. You didn’t even read the entire story or if you did your brain could not comprehend what was being said. NO ONE TOLD ON THE DAD!! HE TOLD THE NEWSPAPER THAT HIS SON MADE IT AND THEY PRINTED IT!!! AND WHAT ELSE DID YOU MISS YOU WONDER??? HIS MOTHER WORKS FOR THE NEWSPAPER!!!!
Darn retards!!!
zeru25 – you are an idiot – what about Rueben and Fantasia? You are color blind – and only see black – maybe you should set up an African American Idol – for Blacks only – like the BET and Black only awards and black only college scholarships- oh yeah and lets vote for a black guy for president – forget that he doesn’t have any experience. It is unfortunae that this guy’s dad ran his mouth and broke the rules – but don’t blame it on the whites or Hebrews or everyone else.
black people run their damn mouths too much. i would kick my pops’ @ss, if i was lynch!
American Idol isnt interested in black contestants as much anyway. For the past 4 5 years they have geared their contestants to the caucasion audience. A person of Hebrew decent will have a chance to win every leap year
American Idol is a garbage show.
NETWORKS AND THEIR RATING..THEY DO NOT GIVE A DAMN. THEY WILL LIKELY NOT EVEN GIVE HIM ANOTHER CHANCE BECAUSE OF THE TYPE OF VIOLATION…THAT REALLY SUCKS. I FEEL FOR HIM…THINGS LIKE THIS PEOPLE NEVER LIVE DOWN.
wow shyts real out here
Obviously da Dad did NOT know! Whoever told on da dad is da blame 4 him gettin kicked off!
Yo I agree 100000000000% wit Nightowl358, me and my pops would’ve been touchin everything in the crib over this
Too bad. Excitement precedes us at times.
Gen Eyes Wide, listen real good…catch it!

Apparently the son is partly blame for the fact he told his dad. Parents tend to be proud about a lot of things their children done so it is no surprise they wanted to tell anyone about it.
Dad and I would have to step out in the yard over that one.
i would have whooped my dads azz……messed up his chance!!!!
man, that sucks, lol. that is f*cked up. The son should’ve never told his father, lmao. However, has this never happened before? If not, i’m surprised.
Oh i would be so pissed, sometimes its better to keep your mouth shut period! I watched his audition and he had a good voice, poor guy!
DAD GETS THE BURNT BIZKUT AWARD.
Looks like dad likes to brag Lol!!
Way to go dad, you phucked up your son’s chance of becoming an American Idol, dumb phuck!
