'American Idol' racy photo controversy

If you read last week that American Idol contestant Antonella Barba was the most-searched name of the week on some Internet search engines (higher even than a melting-down Britney Spears) and wondered why, here is part of the answer. Racy pictures of her (including some new ones that her best friend claims are not her and are doctored) are appearing all over the Web. (Side note: Said best friend, Amanda Coluccio, who also auditioned for the show, is claiming that the show made her look bad and is totally fake. Well, of course, they use the footage they have to make the most compelling story, but they only work with what they are given. But that's all I am going to say about that.)

the sex pics are not of barba

Antonella sure is a pretty girl. Sings well. but can' hold a candle to some of the other voices on the show. It is her looks that will keep her on.
