'American Idol' Will Kick Contestant Off Show!

OH NOES! Real drama on reality TV! 

I'm not sure what I actually think about this. The conspiracy theorist inside of me says that it's all a big scam, and they're paying this dude off to build some kind of controversy and get people into watching a stumbling 'American Idol.' Can't they just accept that it's not very good anymore? Without a drunk and/or high Paula Abdul; what's the point? (don't do drugs, kids). But seriously, the 'crimes of violence' seem to be hard to conceal when these people ask for EVERYTHING and do extremely-thorough background checks before they let you on national TV. 

From TMZ.com:

A contestant on "American Idol" will be kicked off the show Wednesday because the singer concealed multiple crimes from producers ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected with the show tell us ... the contestant -- one of the final 12 -- was charged with 2 crimes in 2011, one involving violence.  We're told in both cases the contestant gave a fake name to cops when arrested.

In addition, we're told the contestant has outstanding warrants -- again, the singer concealed it from producers.

We're told the contestant was confronted with the information on camera today and the footage will air on Wednesday's show.

I guess we'll know soon. I know I'm on the edge of my seat!
