Indian Idol Causes Riot!

What happens when you mess with a Desi reality star?... TAKE COVER… a Riot!!! Us Desis learn really fast!!! If you want the 411 on how to get publicity for a reality TV show you only need look to Press kitten Shilpa – how could one ever forget the whole ‘Big Brother’ episode and all the PR it garnered?

Well looks like ‘Indian Idol’ took lessons because when a DJ in India made racist comments towards ‘Indian Idol’ winner Prashant Tamang’s Nepali background, fans created a huge riot and to make a real DRAMA out of a crisis that even the army had to step in – oh my god how ridiculous!! What’s with the Desi on Desi hate?

Tamang did try and pacify the situatation by adding a profound “violence has no place in song or music.” Yeh OK Tamang, but we don’t think anyone was listening!!! All that peace and love left him pretty quickly though because he says he plans to sue the DJ for the comments... Yeh make some money too!!! looks like it's 'all about the Benjamin's baby!'
