He is the ONLY one I feel sorry for. He had a great attitude.

He was funny. We were imitating him for days after that show. I heard a couple morning radio shows were trying to get a hold of him. He had a bunch of people talking. He had an innocence about him.

"I have no professional training in dancing....or singing"

Hee!

I resent Seacrest for calling him this year's Keith. Billy's cute, Keith was just plain creeeeepy.

Thank you so much, I've tried finding this clip! He is great, I felt bad for the kid. I feel good things are coming his way.

I think it's supposed to be like that, being a radio interview and all.

I didn't realize that William Hung is getting this much attention outside of Berkeley. Like him, I also go to U.C. Berkeley.

Anyway, he's a mini-celebrity here on campus. Though I find it rather sad that he's getting so much attention for the wrong reason. Everyone seems to be laughing at him--especially on campus. Except everyone seems to be pretending that they are prou of him. In reality, everyone seems to be laughing at him, not with him. Poor guy. I'm glad that he had the guts to get "sing" and "dance" on national t.v., because I know I could never do that myself. But, everyone seems to be in on the joke except for him.

The funny thing is that my roommate actually has a class with him. And one of my co-workers use to live on his dorm floor.

p.s.
William Hung is no way representative of the U.C. Berkeley population!

He's getting a lot of positive attention from the media and the American Idol audience.

He sucks. He really really sucks.

Now the asian guy (he got pretty far in, don't know his name but he was bald) kicked ass. He really should have made it.

Those cows won't know what hit 'em. They won't know what hit them even after it hits them, because they're cows.

On the other hand, if he ever decides to go into porn, he wouldn't have to change his name.

I remembered that he is from Hong Kong, right?
I am from Hong Kong too.

I am surprised to see this online petition.
