‘Idol’ Can Transform Ya: Biggest ‘AI’ Makeovers Ever

Most American Idols are made, not born. Sure, their singing ability may have been there from the start, but they walked into that audition room looking like just any boy- or girl-next-door.

…Most American Idols are made, not born. Sure, their singing
ability may have been there from the start, but they walked into that audition
room looking like just any boy- or girl-next-door. It was only after they were
manhandled by a 19 Entertainment-supplied dream team of stylists, hairdressers,
makeup artists, personal trainers, and cosmetic dentists that their superstar transformations were complete.And of course, some less fortunate Idols end up going through changes on their own, both good and bad, once they leave the show and are left to their own devices. So what sort of makeovers (or makeunders) will Season 9’s contestants
undergo once “American Idol” is over? Will Siobhan Magnus ditch the Missy Elliott
boots and Mr. Peabody spectacles once and for all? Will Crystal Bowersox comb
out her dreads? Will Andrew Garcia cover up his neck tattoos? Will Casey James
(gawd forbid) chop off his goldilocks? Who knows? But here are some of the more

Ai Haruna - Beautiful Japanese Idol

Don’t be ashamed, she is so convincing.

…I bet you already have a new tab open and are about to google image search her name. But before you do, just know one thing,

Ai has become famous most recently for being the first Japanese person to win the prestigious “Miss International Queen 2009″ transsexual beauty pageant in Thailand.

As for me, I still think she’s hot. Just go with it. You have to admit she’s pretty damn convincing.
Go ahead and open that tab… you know you want to.

And during his frank online conversation with fans, Ju’Not came right out and said that the TV talent show is in fact rigged, and that its contracts are unfair to contestants.”It’s a fixed thing if I ever saw one,” he boldly declared–much to the shock of many naive chatters, who responded with capslocked interjections and frowny-faced emoticons.It was hardly the first time that AmIdol had been accused of wrongdoing. A book loosely based on anonymous former Idol employees’ experiences with the show, Stage 46, made similar allegations last year. But few detractors have ever been as brutally honest as Ju’Not was today.Ju’Not–who by his own account was labeled a “troublemaker” by Idol producers for questioning the contract (which he dubbed a “slavetract”) that all auditioners are required by Fox/19 to sign, and was allegedly…
