I just wanna punch some sense into him because I don't think he realizes how stupid he looks/sounds. He probably thinks he actually has talent.

Can't stand the fucker mad

I always wonder what newscasters/interviewers are really thinking when they have to do features on this clown.

I agree for the most part. But, have you heard his version of YMCA?

Dude needs to hit the gym. He's developed quite the "carb face", and the man-boobies are just a Cheeto away. hmmm

From the first article:

For a taste of the Hung hype, get a load of a press release by Alan Grunblatt, general manager and executive vice president of Koch Records, which states, in part, "William is the perfect artist for our culturally diverse society. He is the new Elvis!"

I don't begrudge a marketer his right to make a buck. But Colonel Tom Parker knew Elvis could really sing and dance. With William Hung, is there any other reason to extend the joke on America except that it plays to a racist image of the ineffectual Asian-American male?

I just listened to Hung's take on YMCA again and I have to admit that this is currently one of my favorite songs - It's absolutely AMAZING!

Having had to grow up with constant harassment based on Asian stereotypes, I've become very offended by bozo's who continue to add fuel to the fire. William Hung, like Long Duck Dong from 16 candles, continues to make life difficult for Asian kids all over the country. If it weren't for the fact that this kick ass song redeemed him completely and absolved him from any responsibility, I would have refrained from giving him props. As such, thumbs up! to William Hung!

Something about him just screams "Special Olympics".
Not to be mean, but he looks like he has Down's Syndrome. But hey, if he can improve on YMCA, God bless him.
