Recently theTVaddict.com was lucky enough to take part in what has become a rite of passage for the weekly AMERICAN IDOL cast off. The dreaded exit interview with the media.
And while we could spend gigabytes of valuable bandwidth discussing Mr. Hernandez’s future goals and career objectives in the world of music. This TV Addict knows all too well that when it comes to Celebrity in Hollywood, people only cares about one thing. SCANDAL! SEX! AND PHOTOS! Err… make that three things.
Thus, the following is what Hernandez had to say about his rocky road to reality TV infamy. And if you really are concerned with Hernandez’s burgeoning music career, I’ll nutshell it. He’s unemployed and is looking for a recording contract.
With all the news floating around the past couple of weeks, do you feel like that’s been a distraction to you in any way, or have you managed to block it all out?
David Hernandez: You know, I did a pretty good job of blocking it all out, as you probably saw on TV. I actually watched my performance back from Tuesday night and I was very happy with my stage presence and everything like that. It was just unfortunately not the best song selection in the judges’ eyes, and America voted. No, actually, I’ve been staying away from the Internet and the TV. If this is the worst thing that comes out of my career, then I’m pretty set to go. Do you know what I mean?
This has actually been really good for me, because I’ve learned how to have a thick skin and still be able to get on stage and perform for 35 million people.
