Former American Idol Star Sanjaya Malakar Performs at Bat Mitzvah

He may not be producing with Clive Davis or penning ditties with Daughtry, but American Idol reject Sanjaya Malakar hasn't had trouble landing gigs.
Over the weekend, he performed at a black-tie, 300-guest bat mitzvah in Huntington, New York.
The 18-year-old sang Stevie Wonder's "Isn't She Lovely" while 12-year-old Rachel Lader shared her first dance with dad.
He also belted out The Kinks' "You Really Got Me," which he performed twice on Idol before getting the boot.
Malakar is still wild about his hair: He showed off a new 'do, which he got styled, alongside Lader, at the chic nuBest Salon and Spa before the ceremony.
Post-Idol life for Malakar (who relocated from Seattle to L.A. with sister), has been "a whirlwind," he says.
"While you're on it, it moves so fast," he tells Newsday. "But afterwards, you can kind of sit back and see what happens."

Sanjaya did not get paid for this. The party was for charity. You people that write such hateful comments about him are the ones who need to get a life and go do something positive with it. It's ridiculous to spew hate at someone you've never even met.

Shut up Sanjaya is love! You probably have no friends either and probably just lonely and the only one you'd be able to get is in fact Sanjaya!

Sanjaya-
GET A LIFE AND SERIOUSLY GIVE UP ON SINGING BECAUSE YOU SERIOUSLY SUCK AT IT. YOU HAVE NO FRIENDS, NO FANS AND WILL NEVER PUT OUT AN ALBUM. YOU WILL NEVER BE AS GOOD AS CARRIE OR DAUGHTRY OR ANYONE WHOSE MADE IDOL TO DATE!
TAKE CARE
