Just like Jennifer Hudson's Effie character in Dreamgirls, American Idol's Sanjaya Malakar is telling you he is staying! In a surprise move - perhaps to boost AI's sagging viewership - American Idol has decided to bring Sanjaya back as a 'wild card' for Barry Gibb Week. So get ready for the Great Sanjaya and his fabulous hair once again when he hustles himself into another round of American Idol--spiting the wishes of those who wanted him out of American Idol.
Next week on American Idol, it will be Saturday Night Fever all over again as the legendary Bee Gees singer Barry Gibb mentors the American Idols finalists on the fine points of singing …and disco dancing.
The returning Sanjaya no doubt will be at the top of his game again as he performs the Bee Gees classic 'Stayin' Alive'.
For his number, he will channel Barry Gibb's falsetto and John Travolta's dancing skills to stay alive in the hearts of his fans once more. His hairstyle? He will wear his hair big, of course. Afros and pompadours were the height of disco fashion for men then and he will definitely oblige.
