Sanjaya is going to D.C.!

This week's American Idol evictee is going to Washington, D.C. for this weekends' White House Correspondents Association Dinner. Apparently People magazine was able to snag him to attend.

Sanjaya Malakar was by far the American Idol hopeful that America loved to hate. Why? Who knows. I mean, who wouldn't love a contestant who couldn't sing half as well as everyone else on the show, who also sported the zaniest hair dos, and whom people vowed to go on hunger strikes to get him off the show?

Why he was asked to attend the White House dinner gala is even more puzzling to me. Pretty random if you ask me.
