A contestant on "American Idol" will be kicked off the show Wednesday because the singer concealed multiple crimes from producers ... TMZ has learned.
Sources connected with the show tell us ... the contestant -- one of the final 12 -- was charged with 2 crimes in 2011, one involving violence. We're told in both cases the contestant gave a fake name to cops when arrested.Hmm. It's sad to hear this news, but the whole "confronted on camera" sounds so exploitative. Why not kick the person off and let it go? I LOVE this show more than the other singing reality competitions, but that just strange. I mean, didn't the contestants go into some extensive background check?
In addition, we're told the contestant has outstanding warrants -- again, the singer concealed it from producers.
We're told the contestant was confronted with the information on camera today and the footage will air on Wednesday's show.
But yeah, to like this is something new is nothing but a revisionist history. They've done it with the disqualification of Frenchie Davis (Season 1) and Corey Clark (Season 2) and Mario Vasquez (Season 4) quitting. Oh well.
I'm hearing it's Jermaine Jones. He tweeted earlier, "Awww I will no longer b on the show", but then deleted the tweet after a couple of minutes. Hmm.

syaang naman..
But I think Matatanggal din namn siya sooner or later .
just my opinion XD
aruuuuy.... sad to hear this news but as bagotilyo said... sooner or later he will get the boot...
Good thing natanggal siya. Bakit siya pa kasi? Pwede namang si David Leathers, Jr. Or si Johnny Keyser. Or Jen Hirsh. Or Reed Grimm. Dami dami bakit siya pa. And, dapat Top15 para mas exciting ang labanan eh.
So sorry to hear that and no offense, but if it is really him, thank God he is out
isn't it ironic that he's being called a gentle giant but was criminally charged with violence...
