'American Idol' Recap: David Hernandez Sent Packing, Perhaps Due To Strip-Club Scandal
Was it news of his exotic dancing past or a weak Beatles performance that caused the early frontrunner to lose support?
And then there were 11.
At the conclusion of Wednesday evening's "American Idol" results show, 24-year-old contender David Hernandez -- who'd been one of the competition's earliest frontrunners, along with adorable 17-year-old David Archuleta — was banished to the annals of "Idol" lore, in what was one of this season's first real shockers.
Hernandez, who hails from Glendale, Arizona, became this year's token sex scandal last week, when it was revealed he used to work at a male strip club. Reports claimed that Hernandez, in addition to dancing at the club, also provided lap dances to its customers.
"Honestly, things happen for a reason," Hernandez said after host Ryan Seacrest revealed the results of the 29 million votes. Hernandez himself was visibly surprised, even mouthing the word "wow" as he hugged Kristy Lee Cook, who'd just avoided elimination. "I think we all have a plan. This isn't it for me."
