His fans from all over the world, including the Philippines, have been helping him to get back on the show. People have been calling and emailing Fox, American Idol, and everybody from local news stations, radio station, everything.
He has never been in the bottom. He has never disappointed his fans. But all of a sudden, he had to leave American Idol. It did not make any sense.
People have been sending out petition links, contacting local news stations, making groups about getting James back on Idol. So far there have been thousands of signs on the petition.
Fox should really reconsider James. They made an exemption on James’ homecoming. Even they know James had that idol potential within him. Something’s been going on, and Fox ain’t telling us nothing.
