Former American Idol Host Suggests Show Could Be Fixed
April 20, 2008 06:29:20 by Joe Reality
Once upon a time, American Idol had two hosts. In addition
to current host Ryan Seacrest, Brian Dunkleman co-hosted
the show during its first season. While Brian Dunkleman faded
into obscurity after his departure from what would become
the biggest show on television, he is now attempting to return
to the public eye by appearing on Celebrity Fit Club.
In an interview on the Adam Carolla show, Brian Dunkleman
didn’t hold back in letting his opinions be known on
American Idol. When asked if American Idol is fixed, Dunkleman
said, “Maybe, I was told that second season finale
there was a reason why there were three different vote differentials
read off between Ruben and Clay…three thousand, thirty
thousand, three-hundred thousand. Was it because Ryan was
on cold medication? Or maybe is that because they didn’t
get their stories straight? This is just hearsay. This is
what I heard.”
When asked if his assertion was that even though Ruben won
that maybe Clay got more of the popular vote, Brian Dunkleman
replied, “That’s just something I heard. Again,
not stating facts, opinions.” When asked about his
source, Brian Dunkleman didn’t give a name but said
it was someone who “might have worked on the show.”
Dunkleman also questioned Sanjaya’s run on the show
and the convenient timing of his elimination right before
Idol Gives Back. In regards to Sanjaya, Dunkleman said, “I
loved it that Howard Stern thought he was keeping Sanjaya
on. That’s what was going on, voter tampering, computerized
dialing. You know how they decide who’s going off the
show? They write a name on a piece of paper, and they hand
it to us. Here read this.”
In regards to Constantine Maroulis’ surprise elimination,
Dunkleman said, “You know what happened. People thought
he was safe. I bet, because that’s the mentality of
a fourteen year old girl. This is the kid I love, I want
him to win, but you know what, he’s going to get through
this week, I’m going to vote for somebody else I really
don’t care for.”
In regards to his relationship with Ryan Seacrest, Brian
Dunkleman revealed, “He didn’t like me, I didn’t
like him. We didn’t get along.” Dunkleman went
on to explain that Seacrest would freestyle when he was supposed
to read off the teleprompter, which left Dunkleman without
the setup for his jokes. Dunkelman also revealed that some
scenes from at least the first season of American Idol were
re-enacted for the cameras.
