Canadian Idol/Sass Jordan discriminated against a chubby teen girl contestant

NOTE: My husband wrote this blog entry. He said it as well or even better then I could have so I borrowed it with his permission. If you find it elsewhere, it is because he has it on his blog too.

Whether it was a product of the producers/editors or Sass herself, I don’t know.

Canadian Idol started last night, and it seems a little incident went almost completely unnoticed. There has been no ruckus raised or comments made that I have found so far.

A chubby teen girl from Ajax/Pickering, named Vanessa Kalala auditioned and afterwards, Sass Jordan leaned over to one of her fellow judges and said “Moo”.

To basically humiliate a teenager on national television because of her weight in the middle of an alleged singing contest DISGUSTS me.

So here is what to do. Search the web for a picture of a cow. Stick it in an email and send it to: sassparilla@sassjordan.com

and idol@ctv.ca

If you can’t find a good cow picture, just send the word MOO - or maybe some other form of cowalect.

Maybe Sass and the producers of Idol will get the point?

Tell as many people as you can that we as Canadian's won't tolerate this kind of hate with our children.
