We have just gotten past the Antonella Barba scandal and now another looms on the horizon. This time it could be a lot more serious for the American Idol machine. A caution here; this story gets pretty graphic. Some readers may prefer to go back to the Reality TV headlines.
And let’s keep in mind that although there are legal actions involved we are dealing with allegations.
American Idol producers have been caught up in another sex scandal less than a week after parting company with pop wannabe-turned-Internet pin-up Antonella Barba.
Barba, who hit the headlines when saucy photos appeared in cyberspace, was voted off the show last Thursday (08MAR07), but now Idol bosses are bracing themselves for a new scandal.
Magfaleno Olmos, a former accountant for Fremantle, the company which produces American Idol, has filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles, accusing former finalist Mario Vazquez of attempting to masturbate in front of him. Olmos claims the singer “sexually harassed” after following him to a toilet.
