American Idol Finalist Antonella Barba

Bad news for Antonella Barba, the Jersey-born hottie on this year's American Idol. Less than a day after finding out she'd made the final 24, Barba has already had to cut her celebration short due to some incriminating photos that have surfaced on the internet. The pictures, which show Barba and her girlfriends suntanning au naturel and, um, using the facilities, are hardly likely to please the show's uptight producers, and it remains to be seen whether Barba will be allowed to remain in the competition. Naturally, if these "college girls' gone wild" photos prove to be Barba's undoing, we imagine she'll hardly enjoying watching another season of judge Paula Abdul's medication-inspired antics. Hey, anybody remember when the show was more of a talent competition and less of an unapologetic hypocrisy designed to kick off anyone (besides the judges, of course) who demonstrated an inkling of un-American behavior off-screen? Yeah, neither do we. ** Fine, junior college girls, okay?
