And if that doesn't move you, then take a look at the American Idol video and pause it when the mean Simon guy says 'Thank you' the second time... take a look at the fansite http://www.williamhung.net - they have T-shirts, .mp3 remixes, interviews, live performances at UC Berkeley.

Period. I do not know why people respect the him for "being sincere or honest" Because, he KNOWS he's bad. And he' just wants to be American's Next Ho. It's funny how big he has gotten though and in a way it saddens me, because I know the only reason why he has become so big in America's "Eye" is because he only perpetuates the stereotype of Asian Males of dorks, geeks...Chinaman. Ask yourself why it's so funny to the average American and you'll see what I mean. Listen to the talk radio and you'll come across outdated terms like "Oriental" & "Far East" William Hung was used by the Media and feed to the Masses as a Bamboozed Chinaman. On a recent trip to San Diego, the group of school kids passed by me. They had to be in 1st or 2nd grade. One of them called out to me and said, "Hey, a Chinaman" My first reaction was, Whoa, It's 2004 and I'm still, I'm still being called Chinaman! I'm not even Chinese!!! Why is that!!! And by a 1st Grader!!! I point at the Media who continues to bambooze Asian Americans by using William Hung as a stereotype for Asian Americans. I normally don't take a stand on issues, but this one really touched a nerve on me. William Hung only went onto American Idol to get His lousy 15 minutes of Fame. Period.
