The purpose of TMZ is to exploit celebrities and distort the truth for greed and degradation. Danny is ulitizing is wonderful talent to make money. How hypocritical of them (TMZ)to judge danny? the likes of TMZ holds no validity or value.
Danny’s in Milwaukee today. so excited.
I didn’t like the remark “AIrejects”. I’m not impressed at all with TMZ… I can hear the haters now, they’ll be going full force now…
YEA Kathy, Be on the look-out for our DANNY!!
TMZ Sucks big time. Rejests my butt. Funny how people with no talent bash people with talent and DANNY would never trash other people. He is the one that started the Save Matt with the Idols. And who is the one who comforted Kris when Simon was saying negative things about his singing. OOOO how I am burned.
Well TMZ took what danny said out of context. Danny was really saying oops! because he was not supposed to be singing, he was not denying that the big perk is the money. He was elated about the money and what it can do for his future endeavers; what is wrong with singing for money? I believe danny’s motivation goes beyond money, but come on! danny was brought up in humble beginnings, shouldn’t he be happy to make money?!
I tell you these TMZ manipulators. Of course we know the haters are going to be out full force!
of course they will be. they will do anything to hurt him but it only makes his fans rally more!! and look at the positive side- He is in the news all the time and we got to hear him sing something!!!
even it was just for a second..I hated when they said the AI rejuects that was SO MEAN!!!!! JERKS really they are WAY worse then that but If I said what they really are
I might be DELETED!!!
I meant REJECTS!!!!!!!
when people say that think about this that is what they are a bunch of REJECTS! themselves!!!!
Danny needs to tell TMZ to stick it where the sun dont shine..I really hope sometime he does something. He has to let these people know that what they say is not always what he means..Ignoring it all the time is good but at a point you need to just STICK up for yourself and let them know..They can stick it!
Oh, girlfriends, let that dirty water run off your backs! That’s what Danny’s doing, guaranteed! If you can hold back, I’d say stay away from the hate sites cuz they only feed on defensive comments. Keep putting positive vibes out! Danny’s held his own through the WORST imaginable situations that all came down on him at once. Can you imagine his life before Sophia died? Happy, driving his semi, singing with the peeps at church, loving his beautiful girl, NOBODY hating him. Now, it’s all crazy different for him. Yes, there is the rush and excitement of being recognized for his talent, for being famous, for feeling the love of masses and all that is amazing and great, but he’s still had to ignore, look past, rise above all the hate out there that’s come with the fame. All while mourning Sophia. Can you imagine how strong Danny must be?
So, don’t fret it. TMZ does their thing. Danny does his. And we keep sending out the love to him!
Media can say whatever they want and has no accountability to anyone it sucks!!! so the people who are being harassed are the only ones who can really let them know how they feel..The media is a mighty force and they are against Danny..Why I really dont know but they have chosen him as their punching bag.. but I hate the media they always distort the truth and say very mean and cruel things about someones character and what really upsets me is some do buy into it…and the haters love it and JUMP all over it..
Oh, Deb, I couldn’t disagree with you more. Really. One of the things that I constantly marvel at about Danny is his inner strength, his ability to see beyond the ugliness, and his steadfast belief in who he his. When you really know who you are and believe in your abilities like Danny does, the haters can’t get to you. He’s said as much himself.
I do know what you mean, tho. But I am practicing keeping my cool. I am trying to take a page from Danny’s book. And it’s working! I feel so much better by not letting myself get invested in the crunk out there.
I hope you know what I mean. Don’t take this the wrong way, cuz I know you are just as protective of Danny as I am. But I just love how he keeps showing his class and doesn’t stoop to their level no matter what. That makes me so proud of him!
You are absolutely correct vc!
I agree vc!!!!Danny is very strong and he does not let this get to him..I just love him so much and I just hate to see this stuff that is so unfair come at him..But I am sure he does not let it bother him at all..Love to Danny today for his foundation I am so excited for him too!!! I know he will be just fine.
vc Beautifully put. Danny has proven that he is strong and he is a survivor. The negative comments will not stand in the way of his success because he believes in himself and in SHF. His positive attitude and strength will take him very far. He will not let the negative stuff interfere with his goals.
Danny sounds really excited. Hopefully he will have some big news coming out soon regarding SHF.
changing the subject boy does he look amazing in that video!!! loved seeing his beautiful face right away today!!! all gruffed up and his mouth wide open!! singing=)
EVerone, PLEASE vote for Danny on the Mr. USA Twitterwall
http://tweeterwall.mallplace.com/tw/usa/mr-twitter
I’m trying to keep him from falling below the top 20. If he stays in top 20, he will be “immortalized” on the Twitterwall. I just think it’s good PR to keep his name out there.
You can save the site on a tab and keep going back to it every 20 minutes!
Also, pls vote for Jason Castro. He is not a threat, but the guy just behind Jason is. He is with the group of New Kids on the Block who are dominating the site (along with Archie).
Am I crazy or what??? But, please, could you vote????
Yes yes deb, it was a delight to hear danny singing a little bit with his lovely mouth wide open!
Y’know what??? I ain’t even gonna go watch that TMZ video. I just do not need the negativity right now. If Danny can rise above it and just do his thing, then I can too. I don’t understand exactly why it is that the media constantly feel they have to put him down but I’m staying away from TMZ, EW and MJsbigblog.
agreed!!! this is the place to come for Danny!!! so much love! Thanks everyone I just get a little defensive sometimes!! thats that fighting spirit that comes out of me when I feel Danny is being mistreated..grrrrrr….
deb I know it hurts to hear all the hateful things being said because you care so much about Danny and his success. It’s hard to hear it because none of it is true and Danny does not deserve the hate. Everytime I hear something negative I want so bad to make people see the truth about Danny, but no one is going to be able to change the minds of the haters. Danny could find the cure for cancer, and they would find reason to hate him. I have to try to be like Danny and let is slide off my back – kinda hard to do but I’m trying.
Changed my mind. Went back to watch the video clip and it wasn’t that bad after all. Glad I did watch it because OOOOOH, THOSE ARMS!!!!!
That’s a dedicated fan Shirl for not stooping to that level of entertaining yourself with the haters!
Oops. Watched the second video clip of Anoop and Danny ONLY. Will just skip the first clip!!!!
AWWW shirl! temptation for danny was too Seductive to resist! yes his arms, those tight pants, his walk, juicy lips, the facial gruff and everthing is too enticing to pass up!
Danny does look great, as always!! I remember the remark you said Deb about Danny saying “they don’t know what hurt is”.. He’s not going to let these jerky people and petty remarks get to him!! He’s a fighter and will come out on top.. Oh, my mind is thinking something else!!!
Yes Karen my mind just went there! and it was good!
Love you girls, but hey, is ANYONE voting for Danny on the twitterwall? It’s easy…pls respond. I feel so all alone!
I’ve said this before-I’m not going to other sites and read mean things about DANNY.. Because I refuse to listen to the garbage! Once in awhile somebody will try to sneak in here but we know how to take care of them!!!! Amy certainly knows how to handle them!!!
Yes VC I voted!!
So did I +) he is now 14 I think!
THANK YOU, Karen! You can vote every 20 minutes!
And I’m so grateful for this site, too. So easy to find those snarks and give em the royal boot! THANKS AMY!
vc I am not interested at this pointed. I lost my motivation because it was difficult to access.
Oh, Latrece. The Mr. Universe one was difficult to access, but this one (Mr. USA) is super easy. Just go on, click and voila!
Please try! It’s for a good cause. You won’t be disappointed!
THanks, girlfriend!
ha ha ha ha Danny was soooooooooooooo funny!! and i loved how he said “OH CRAP!!!” … but yeah, he was saying that cuz he wasn’t supposed to be singing and could get in trouble for that!!!!!!! TMZ is stupid, but at least they gave us some Danny! ha ha ha
You’ll don’t think Danny could get in trouble for his “little song”… Now I’m thinking about that.. I need to get my mind clear so I can focus on Danny!! Not have other stuff whirling around in what little brain I have!!!!
JennJenn, Do you want a color picture or black&white, or does it matter????
Karen– I don’t believe our danny will get in trouble for that little joke, I hope not, that would be a cruel and Unusual punishment for that little snip bit! we would have to rade 19e for sure!
love Danny so much but sometimes i wish he’s think first before speaking because he gets in trouble for being so transparent. anywho, i still like hearing him talk.
I’m mad – I can only get the first clip and can’t get the second one. What did he say in the second one?
Wish I could get a ringtone with Danny singing “Money, Money Money” BTW are there any free ringtones with him singing that can be downloaded? I’ve tried everywhere with no luck. I want Danny’s voice on my phone. I have him as a screensaver and wallpaper and user picture on my computer. Now all I need to find are some Danny sounds for my computer and ringtones for my phone. Has anybody found any?
cheryl ******** yeah i’m pretty sure you can buy a ringtone on itunes.. i haven’t tried yet, i’ll try tonight and let you know! cuz matt said he downloaded himself as a ringtone, so danny must be on there too!
karen h ********* i guess that’s up to you! color or black/white… just as long as your smiling pretty for our danny! ha ha I’m gonna put a nice tint over the entire photo so it looks cohesive and not a bunch of stuff stuck to a page so i think either would work! or you could send me one of each and i can see what works best!
CHERYL ~~ Here’s a direct link to the video on youtube. See if you can watch it here:
Shirl Thanks, but no luck. I’m at the office and they block youtube. I guess I’ll have to watch it from home tonight. Weird that I can get the first one though.
Cheryl ~~~ That’s no fair. Doesn’t your office realize that you need your Danny fix when you need it, and right now???
Shirl Ha Ha…..the other day our Office Manager sent out a firm wide email that said “whoever is printing pictures of American Idol, please stop. this is a waste of the firm’s money.” I was totally busted because, I kid you not, I have printed about 100 pictures of Danny on the colored printer. If I get fired for it, I’ll have Danny to thank for it!!! (but Danny’s worth it)
OOH cheryl! I don’t want you to get fired! butI know that feeling of needing danny’s “fix”
You all have to hear this. Lionel Richie said that Danny should have won. Listen to the whole thing because at first he says Adam should have won over Chris, then he says Danny should have been in the final and won!
http://www.sirius.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Sirius/Page&c=BackStageAsset&cid=1241184106025
Cheryl, They have to know it’s you!! Or are their other co-workers who are crazy about Danny?? I remember you telling us about the male co-worker who couldn’t get one of Danny’s songs out of his head, because of you playing it so much… What are you doing with all those pictures!!!
Cheryl, I love it!! So Lionel said that Danny should have won American Idol!! When they sang that duet, it was perfect… Maybe Lionel could help Danny… I know the woman was Barbara Walters but don’t know who the man was!! Do you know?? I’m so happy, I wish Danny could hear that!!!!!!!
I do think they know it’s me, that’s why I don’t think I’ll get fired for it, they would have done it already. I think they just wanted it to be a warning. And, the pictures I have hanging by my desk in my office are from the colored printer, so they have to know. The other 90-some pictures are now hidden in a locked drawer!
hey Karen, Cheryl is doing the same thing we are doing in our minds’ with danny’s pictures ( drooling and buring!)
karen h I couldn’t tell who the other guy was. I don’t know who Barbara Walters does her Sirius Satellite show with. Or, maybe it was another guest. I wish Danny would get lots more famous people backing him up. He deserves the attention.
ooh I believe something will happen between Danny and Lionel! what it is? I don’t know, but the oven is hot!
Latrece Definately drooling! I printed all the really sizzling hot pictures. Every once in a while I unlock my drawer and pull them out to look at them – then I have to go drink some ice water to cool myself down.
What’s wrong with us?? Danny has turned us all into a bunch of teeny-boppers.. I have never wanted to hear or see from a guy like I do Danny… From the first day I saw and heard DJG he’s been the only one for me!!!!!!! I know it’s because he’s so hot!!!
Cheryl ~~ That’s so funny about your office giving notice to everyone not to print out pics of the Idols! I bet you aren’t the only one doing it!
When I download pics of Danny onto my computer, I upload them to Shutterfly.com for hard copy prints. They do amazing work and they’re fast! I put them into a photo album and spend way too much time drooling over them!
Shirl Great idea, I may have to create a Danny photobook. I’ve never used Shutterfly, but I’ll look into it.
Karen there is something about a real man that real women are drawn to, and that person is danny! we just have not seen such young, fresh, handsome, passionate, sensitive man like danny in a while; therefore, we are drawn to him like a magnet(there are good men out there, but he posess a special quality about him). I am going to relish in it, because I know that this is a rare thing!
karen h I’m worse than a teeny bopper. I have never, ever printed pictures of any other celebrity (oh wait except President Obama). Even when I was a teeny bopper I never crushed on anybody like I’m crushing on Danny. I am serious when I sometimes think something is wrong with me (but how can anything that makes me so happy be wrong?). It’s pretty bad when my own husband will see me staring into space and instead of asking me what I’m thinking about like he normally would do, he now asks me “are you thinking about Danny again?”
ooh cheryl! poor dear husband knows you got it bad for danny!
ooh President Obama is a man’s man too; boy can you imagine both Danny and president Obama walking in a dark with you and caressing your b**** I mean back! danny singing and Obama talking sweet nothings with his deep rich sexy voice! whew!
I hadd to go back and watch ‘HELLO’ again.. That Danny is one fine guy!!! He does something to me!!
Excuse the spelling (had) see, I’m bad as Danny!! My mind is in overdrive-can’t hardly concentrate after I get through watching Danny!!
Latrece Danny is like a magnet. If there were more female producers in the industry, Danny would have been the first one to be signed. I don’t think men get it. I think some men resent Danny for how utterly masculine he is. He exudes a raw animal magnatism that they feel threatened by and jealous of. women on the other hand can’t get enough of the masculinity and sexiness that seems to just pour out of Danny.
Latrece, you’re something else… how do you think of all these things!! You need to go on some of the hate sites and start talkingabout Danny, bet you could turn them around!!
I don’t know Karen?!, they are pretty evil! that would take some reallll! work!
Cheryl you hit the hammer on the nail about our sexy animalistic danny!
Latrece Don’t even get me started with Barack Obama. I adore him. I am obsessed with looking at him too. That is one fine man. I would be in heaven if I ever was in the same room with Danny and Pres. Obama. I love when my phone rings because I have a Barack Obama ringtone – it sends shivers thru me. That is why I want to find a ringtone with Danny’s voice – either singing or talking because I want to get that same tingly, happy, feeling I get when POTUS is answering my phone.
Danny “tweeted that he had a good meeting and just got through eating at his favorite P.R. restuarant… And looked at potential building for the foundation… Oh, how I love that guy!!
ooh Weeee cheryl! we would both be in heaven if we had both of them at our disposal!
karen He is really committed to SHF. I’m so glad he is already looking at buildings for his foundation. He’s moving so fast – I think he must believe he needs to act while the fire is hot. I think during the competition he must have been so anxious to finish the show so that he could get started on the foundation. They realy tied his hands when it came to anything to do with SHF. He just seems so happy now that he is free to spend time on it.
Also, Karen, Don’t you wish he could have sang the entire “Hello” song? When he was singing with Lionel Richie I wanted him to sing even more songs, or at least sing all the verses of the songs they sang. When I play back any of Danny’s performances they seem too short. I wish they were all longer. During the competition it always seemed like Danny’s songs were shorter than the other contestants. But, I guess I was just imagining that because I wanted his to go on an on and on.
I need to hear some new songs from Danny soon! Even hearing him sing “Money, Money, Money” was exciting to me. Also, when he sang a couple of words of “Tutti Frutti” on the Kelly and Regis show I got excited – but wish he would have sang more of the song!
hey ladies!! Cheryl that story is soooooooooooooo funny about the boss saying to quit printing pictures!!! ha ha ha I haven’t printed any pictures but i’m sure online a lot… that’s why i really have to be careful!!!!! but i have to have my danny fix!!
I’m sooooooooo sad he’s not in LA right now
But i’m very happy he’s back in milwaukee looking for a building! that is sooooooo amazing! i would totally go out there and volunteer to help clean it up and get it going if i could afford the trip, that might be expensive, but it would sure be fun! i’m hoping once it’s going out there that he’ll think about getting a building here in california. that would be awesome!
Hi JennJenn! well you are in the right place to get your danny fix!
Hi latrece!!!!
***** LATRECE & KAREN H ******
I dont think I have your email addresses yet for the Collage I’m making for Danny. Can you email me so I have them? I’m going to be sending out an email this weekend to everyone! Thanks!!!!
[email protected]
http://iheartdannygokey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=195
Cheryl, I’m so happy Danny’s being able to get his foundation rolling.. With the tour coming up, he probably won’t be able to spend as much time on it as he would like. So, like you say, while the fire is hot, he’s got to jump on it.. Yes, I would like to hear Danny do a full version of “Hello”> I haven’t checked to see if he did a studio version like he did with his other songs.. Do you know?? I really hope that something good will come to Danny as a result from the duet. Lionel seems to really like Danny and is impressed with his singing ability.. To me, D&L”s duet was the best performance of the finale… Yes, I need some new songs from Danny.. I know you’re glad it’s Friday!!!!!
Jenn Jenn, you’ve got mine!! Exactly when do you want the picture??
JennJenn— I sent you my email address.
I am definitely excited for danny with his SHF. He is so fired up, focused and motivated, I don’t even think that he is allowing the haters in his head. When he tweets, you can feel the excitement and momentum that he has now!
hey karen!! oh maybe I forgot to write it down!!!! sorry!!!!
i’ll check again! haha I’ll email everyone tonight and let you know when I need the picture!!!
KAREN *** yeah i’m losing it! ha ha i checked that last night and forgot! ha ha i’ve got it now!!!
Jen Jen, Danny’s got our minds(what little bit I’ve got) going in circles..
Hello Gokey girls, I actually don’t think this clip is that mad, everyone know he was just kidding around (at least we do)!!
Sorry, I meant to say Bad.
Michelle, did you listen to Lionel Ritchie talking about our Danny? Cheryl’s got the site posted on here.. If you haven’t heard it go listen to it!!!!!
I’m going off message for minute. I wanted to thank all of you for saying such kind words to me about my husband losing his job. We will be okay, he’s very talented and we are staying positive about the whole thing. He talked again with his CEO and they are negotiating an even longer period of time for his severence. So, that would give him even more time to find a job and to have a lot of time to devote to not-for-profits like SHF. We talked about Danny’s advice that when something bad happens don’t let it define you, let it be a defining moment. This may be a defining moment in my husband’s career and he will make good things happen.
Back to a lighter note. There are a couple of new pictures on idolforums that you may or may not have seen (you know I like pictures of Danny with his tongue sneeking out!). Go to:
http://idolforums.com/index.php?showtopic=593477&st=460
Cheryl- I went To that site where danny had his hot, wet, sexy tongue slithering out of his mouth was unbelievable! I was literally mesmerized for a few seconds: I had to try and regain my composure. My mother was calling me about something and I responded and said his tongue look good! and my mother said ” What?” so I really tried to play it off. This guy is hotter than hot!
PREPARE TO DROOL LADIES!!
I saw this picture on idolforums.. we know this is from Disco week, but this girl just cut out the best parts! ha ha ha I love the pic! take a look!
http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e104/jdavis520/face.jpg
Cheryl, Things will work out.. Your husband sounds like he is on the ball! Oh my gosh, more pictures.. First the tongue, now the chest hairs… I just don’t think I can take much more.. He doesn’t have a hairy chest, which I don’t like alot of hair,just the right amount. And he’s got his lips kind of pouty.. which looks good to me… That guy is hot!!!!
JennJenn, I’m drooling all over myself….
hahaha! i saw that and HAD to share it! he has great doesn’t he????
did you guys get the tweet he just sent? he’s saying his tour color should be purple – yet idol forums chose white for him…. i’m gonna go with whatever danny chooses, but if someone else is listed as purple – that might get confusing!
Jenn Jenn, I saw that “tweet” what does that mean??
karen ********** for the tours, there’s usually a certain color associated with each contestant – that way you kind of know who’s a fan of who and the idols can see their colors when they walk out to greet fans… that’s why Danny was saying that he was thinking purple – not everyone wears the colors but a lot of people do.
Archie’s color last year was white and Jason Castro’s was blue, and i didnt know that at the time so I was wearing a blue Archie shirt and all these Jason fans kept coming up to me to say hi! ha ha I told them that he was cool too, but i should’ve worn a white shirt!!!! Danny’s color was chosen on the Idol Forums as WHITE, but now danny is saying he’d like it to be Purple… i just hope they didnt give purple to one of the other girls… but i’ll wear purple if that’s what danny wants!
Well Jennjenn I see the tweet with his color chose. I am not sure what that means when he says he’s thinking about choosing the color purple? does that mean he wears the color purple? It’s not clear to me? However, based on his color chose, he definitely has some flare and spice in his blood! ( Prince purple Rain).
JennJenn and Karen— I am still sweating over that picture with danny’s tongue hanging out of his mouth! I am very curious about danny’s song chooses; I know he is going to sound exciting and thrilling! but lets hope his voice doesn’t get hoarse over the course of the tour! that’s all he need for the haters to say he can’t sing!
Latrece **** the color he’s choosing is actually for his fans to wear.. not really for him himself… that way like when he comes off the busses and does autographs, like if people are wearing purple, he has an idea that those are his fans.. and if lets say Michael’s fans are yellow, people wearing yellow are more likely michael’s fans.. so it’s a color for their fans to wear!
idolforums gave danny fans WHITE to wear, but danny is saying purple, so i’m going with purple for him.
Thanks for explaining Jenn, I’m new to this.. Does idolforums always pick the color?? Now will Danny tell IF that he wants purple, and IF tells his fans.. Is that how it works?? I thought maybe he wanted to wear purple, which is fine with me, because he looks hot in purple.. Remember “Stand By Me”!! Will we be told or will Danny tell us what he is planning on singing?? Or is a surprise?? I wonder how long he’ll be in MIL?
Purple sounds much cooler for our Danny!! Yah purple power!!!
Latrece, Did you see the picture that Jenn told us to go look at?? The one showing his chest hair?? If you hadn’t take a look!! He does know how to work that tongue!!
Hey Deb, you’ve been busy getting ready for your party?? We’ve missed you!!
Twitter: pjgvet
Who cares what those TMZ idiots say! Pseudo-intellectual celebrity wannabes. The money remark was another mischievous funny remark by Danny that they all laughed at.
You know what they say- even bad publicity is good publicity!
And Love you Lionel Ritchie! You could tell he really reapected/liked Danny and vice versa- their hug was soo sweet.
Lionel sounded great- I was never a big fan, but “Just Go” was so good , I think I will buy it!
Thanks to whoever posted that sound bit.
LOVE those tongue pics of Danny over on the idolforum site! He even has a cute tongue! Would love to nibble on it a little bit…..OOPS, did I say that???
Shirl, Did you see the one of his chest hairs and his pouty lips??
Sure did, Karen! Like to nibble on those, too
I know, I know…..my bad! I love his mouth, it’s so sexy. Love his pout, his stankface, his smile, everything about his lips….
Yes deb I saw the picture with danny’s chest hair and luscious wet lip. too hot to trot.
Latrece, Too hot to trot! I like that!! Wonder why the girl Cut Danny’s picture, she just wanted to show his open shirt and the chest hairs??
THE BEST PART of that tmz video is that they should a tiny part of the hotel that the idols are staying in!!!! i’m gonna ask around to see if anyone i know knows what hotel that is!!!!!!!!!
There ya go! Good thinking, Jenn!
Almost midnight here on the east coast so I’m outta here for today. Tomorrow, guys
Thank you for the explanation on the color purple ( I had no idea what that meant). I need to find a purple Danny Gokey shirt now for the concert in Milwaukee on Aug 28th. I am afraid that the entire arena might be wearting purple in his home town!!!!! I will check out CafePress.com.
Who’s on Danny watch in Milwaukee for Saturday??? Anybody know where we might be able to get a Danny sighting??? I am curious if he can move around town without being bothered or does he have fans everywhere??
Michelle, you live in Milwaukee too?
Jenn, I’m glad you got that little clue…hope you can find out where they stay in LA. I felt kinda sad and frustrated today knowing Danny was nearby, but I couldn’t just go and see him. Maybe you’ll have better luck!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
I gotta buy something purple. I thought it meant he would wear purple. jennjenn – thanks for the clarification. I just got home from dinner and first thing I did was jump on the idolforum pics to see the disco picture and to look once again at Danny’s yummy tongue. Dan’t take my eyes off of him.
I watched TMZ tonite and they were not very kind to Danny. They called him a douche. I wish I hadn’t watched it.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
can’t (not dan’t)
Twitter: Upsnodowns
Michelle: Did you go to the Dinner With Danny or the Riverside Theatre show? I’m in Chicago and I wanted to go so bad, but I had to work the next day. vc was very lucky because she had Dinner with Danny and got hugs. I did see him at the Harley Davidson Museum, Summerfest and the Brewer game. I am going to the Chicago Allstate Arena concert – can’t wait!
I got home too late to see tmz!!
So i didnt get to see that.. why do they call him a douche? I just dont get it! so he accidentally sang a song.. big whoop! how does that make him a douche?? oh the stupidity of people!
Twitter: Upsnodowns
jennjenn They completely misrepresented why Danny said “oh,oh”. They definately gave you the impression that he is in it for the money only. I truly wish I had not watched it. I’ve been doing such a good job of staying away from the negative stuff – it just gets me upset.
Twitter: Upsnodowns
jennjenn Have you ever gone to the Dream Center?
Good morning girls, That TMZ makes me so mad!! Why did they call our Danny a douche?? That seems to be a favorite name for Danny from the haters!! It seems like Danny is targeted more from the haters then any of the idols.. Why do you think that?? I wish I could understand…I could say a few choice words to TMZ and all the haters but I refuse to stoop to their level… Don’t they realize what a great guy he is???
Cheryl – unfortunately I did not make it to the “Dine with Danny Event” I was out of town and it was really announced with very short notice. I did make it to the Brewers/Cubs game where he sange the national anthem – needless to say it was fantastic!!!! I do think when his contract with AI is over, he will certainly be headlining at Summerfest and you are only 90 minutes away!!!!
And…regarding the TMZ topic, don’t watch it ladies – the show is garbage!!!!!
Cheryl – I am also searching for some Gokey ringtones. I did not find any on itunes. I have found some that they charge for and they weren’t compatible for my iphone. Still searching if anyone knows…
Karen I believe the haters perceive Danny as a threat to the current culture; danny’s mission is completely misunderstood by some. Danny is passionate about revolutionizing the way at risk youth engages in their community; his approach is to enhance their self efficacy through a diverse art form
( music, dance, artisrty and etc), as well as prevent the younger generation from going down the same destructive path of apathy and violence. The turn off for the haters, is that he boldly expressed his faith, so the perception is that his agenda is to evangelize our society and impose his radical belief (which is far from the truth). Consequently, the haters are making a deliberate attempt to sabotage and distort the perception of danny as much as possible; their acts are not just minor hating, it is an aggressive move to hinder danny’s career thru poisoning the minds of those who are against “people of faith”.
Goodmorning Michelle! I hope you had a restful night and sweet dreams ( of course danny). I do not have any ringtones of danny and I am too incompete to figure out how to go about getting it/downloading it. I hope we hear from our sweet danny. I wonder is he going back to LA today for rehearsals?
Latrece ~~~ That’s pretty heavy stuff you wrote about why people hate Danny. And it wouldn’t surprise me a whole lot if it were true. If so, there are an awful lot of sick people in this old world. And really for what other reason would people have to hate him with such viciousness?! Makes no sense that some view him as a threat to society!
The DJs on some radio show in Texas interviewed Kris recently and had the nerve to ask him if Danny was as big a douche as they think he is. Poor Kris was startled by such a question but was nice enough to come to Danny’s defense and tell them that he’s a great guy. But then the DJ just said he still thinks he’s a douche. To me that is about the lowest thing to call ANY person.
I can understand some idiot clueless fans making nasty comments about Danny but when the press does it, I still don’t quite understand WHY. Yes, it does still upset me. A LOT. I just wish they would leave him the heck alone.
And that’s my Saturday morning rant! LOL!
Shirl, the ironic thing is that if that dj met Danny and spent even a few minutes with him, I bet he’d totally change his tune and be charmed by Danny’s candor, openness, genuineness (which is so refreshing and unusual these days) and sense of humor. People judge him based on the negative press he’s received…MANUFACTURED lies and/or distorted info. They don’t know the man at all.
Still, it kills me too that someone who has a position to sway others through the media should say something so ugly about someone they have never met. Shame on him and on all of them.
Ooh yes shirl! I believe the hate goes beyond his voice ( it’s too vile).
When I think of all the vile viciousness in the press, in the media, none was worse than EW’s Slezak. He went far beyond just being snarky, he was hateful.
And after all that he had said against Danny, (and who I have no doubt knew about it), had the nerve to play nice-nice and invite Danny for an interview. That Danny agreed to it, after all that had been said, all the fun that had been poked at him, all the insults from Slezak and his band of stinkers, shows that Danny was focused enough to accept that invitation and able to overlook all that had gone down beforehand. He was mature enough and self-assured enough to hold his head up high and appear on the show and face whatever was thrown at him. He held his own and I am so proud of him and so proud to be a fan!
And THAT says an awful lot about Danny Gokey!
Well shirl that is why we love danny to the bone. Danny come from a place of rich heritge; he came from a place of diverse background in his community and school, he’s had to overcome social and econonmic adveristies. All of these experiences has enriched him with the desire to play an active and positive role in society, it has given him greater substance, insight and depth to appreciate every opportunity and people who shows interest in him and his endeavors. Danny continues to allow adversites in his life to shape and mold him into a more loving, compassionate, open and wonderful human being!
Good morning ladies! Someone asked if I live in Milwaukee, yes I do, but unfortunately have not had any close encounters of the Danny kind!!! I think he is well covered with his family and friends.
As far as Danny’s success, I can only think that the haters like to focus on him, because they are jealous of everything he stands for!!! When you were child and someone teased you or made fun of you, they were insecure with themselves so they had to put someone down – the haters are the same way – they are jealous of his fan base, his talent, and are scared to death of what his future success might be!!! Remember, we have the power not to read those blogs and not to watch those shows to support the haters. If we do, they will be out of jobs!!!
BTW, thank you to whoever’s idea it was to download the pictures from idol forums and use an internet service to print them and make a scrapbook!!! I did not know you could do that (right click on the photo and save it to your computer). I now have dowloaded just about every photo!!! I may even make a life-size poster or life size card board cut-out (JK!!!) I think Cheryl sent us the link to the idolforums, but there are just so many GOOD pictures of him out there. I haven’t heard the ladies drooling about the picture from the hometown visit where the camera angle is under his shirt and you can actually see his stomach!!!! Pretty amazing!
thanks karen I miss you too I i will be back soon its a crazy weekend!! for me!!! Gotta catch up on Danny for sure!!!
OOh Michelle we have been drooling!
CHERYL ****** nope, i’ve never gone to the Dream Center before… it’s only about 30 minutes from where i live, but that church is HUGE… i thought about going tomorrow but there’s still no guarentee that i’ll see danny, he may not even be back home yet
I watched TMZ and yeah they made it seem like he was in it for they money.. they are idiots! but I loved seeing danny! ha ha ha love love love him…
the thing that ticks me off is that if Adam Allison or Kris said money money that people would say how funny they are but because Danny says it people think he’s a jerk
I can’t wait to see a hot danny with his picture graced on an album; he is going to look so like hot hot and devine with a CD or record album!
I can’t believe TMZ is making such a frickin’ deal over this! Danny didn’t do anything wrong. He was just joking!!!! Hey, I found this video that some girl made stating her opions on Danny.
Here’s the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBCcPRhYyqY
Bailey– the haters are going to consistently be fixated on every misstep danny does, that is there mission in life (nothing is going to change that), so that should not move us because we as his true fans have a clear and positive perception of who danny his; as his fans, we can see thru the fluff. I really enjoyed this clip of this sweet young lady’s view of danny; she is innocent, and open and she has the wisdom to see thru all the garbage.
I meant to say their not “there” to bailey
my spelling today is horrible!
Bailey, Enjoyed the video, thanks for directing us to it!! It’s nice to see a young person’s opinion of Danny.. here at this site we all love Danny.. as you can probably tell!!
thanks Bailey I relived to see that we also got the kids on board the Danny train!
Latrece **** I miss your “steamy” danny comments! haha Anyone got a new pic of danny???? and is he home yet???
I just saw a tweet from MATT Giraud.. he’s almost to Disneyland which is down the street from me AND I have a pass!!! I wish i knew if Danny was with him.. if he was, i would SOOOOO be there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
oh and when i said home I meant LA.. haha his new home!
MICHELLE ~~ I was the one who suggested saving pics of Danny to your computer and then uploading them to a website for hard copies. I use Shutterfly.com and they are great! Very inexpensive and if you’re a new customer, you get a bunch of 4×6 glossy photos free. They also can do wallet sizes, 5×7 and 8×10. When you upload them to their album, you can “preview” them before including a certain pic, and you have the option of cropping. TONS of photos on idolforums and the myidol/Danny Gokey site, Gokey Gang, etc. Shutterfly is fast and easy to use with their prompts. I love having all my favorite pics of Danny (and I have TONS!) in a nice photo album where I can curl up in a corner somewhere and look at them and just drool to my heart’s content.
I even have two framed pics of him on my desk.
AND….I forgot to mention how much I love those pics of Danny taken by some fan from Riverside Park in Milwaukee where the wind had blown his shirt up and you could see his tummy…nice and firm and great abs! You can see he’s wearing black briefs as his jeans have kind of slid down on his hips when he raised his hands over his head. This has been the prime topic of convo over on the “After Dark” thread on idolforums where the talk can get a little off-color. But lots of oversized HQ pics of Danny. Many from the Finale when the Idols were all in white where the discussion is all bout how you can see his white briefs under the white pants. Seriously!
Well I guess My gokey girls are at church today? hopefully we will hear from our lovely hot danny today!. I wonder does he go to church in LA? maybe not. I am sure he is listening to some of his spiritual songs when he has some down time today.
Shirl– I copied all the pictures of danny I could find; I have the one you mention with him in the white outfit in the finale group song. He looked amazingly hot! this man definitely embodies sexiness!
Oh you’re welcome. I was glad to see that younger people enjoy Danny too!
LATRECE ~~ We had church services today….for a treat, outside in a lovely nearby park. Birds singing, nice warm sun, refreshing breeze blowing through the trees. Perfect way to worship our Lord
Yep, Danny looked ever so gorgeous in white, on the Finale. Yep, he is major hotness, sex on a stick
Hmmmm…..no tweets from Danny yet today so far. I have this overwhelming desire to know where he is and what he’s doing 24/7. I do have a life, but gotta admit that
Shirl— it sounds like you had a glorious time spiritually. Wonderful! Yes Danny is OUR EVERY DESIRE FULFILLED, well second to our heavenly father.
BAILEY ~~ I saw that your name was hyperlinked on your posts, so I linked to it…and found your page on Kara. I could not agree MORE with your commentary. As the weeks went on I found her to be increasingly irritating and by the Finale, with that ridiculous little scenario with Bikini Girl, she was on my last good nerve. I really hope she doesn’t return next year.
