The Jewelry Man is under the impression that if one is to be called a liar, one may as well make an effort to deserve the name. The Jewelry Man.telling you to beware because some liars tell the truth and willfully participate in a campaign of misinformation. And speaking of smoke and mirrors.

Here's American Idol executive Ken Warwick on responding to reports that a scene depicting a show producer trying to deter the Fantasia from staying in the competition because she's a single mother: It's a complete fabrication. It's absolutely and totally untrue. I'm the executive producer, Nigel [Lythgoe] is the other executive producer and nobody--to my knowledge--would have said anything like that to her.

And now.The Jewelry Man will act out the scene in question:

Act 1: Picture Fantasia walking into her bouquet-filled dressing room after bringing down the house with "Chain of Fools" during one of the weekly performance shows. Waiting for her is a fictional Idol producer named Ed and a PR-type named Barbara.

Act 2: The smarmy producer proceeds to ask Barrino whether she has heard the Internet chatter circulating about her high-school-dropout and single-mother status. (The Free Yourself songstress had her daughter, Zion Quari' Barrino, in 2001 when she was 17.) Then Barbara tells her that "they" have received quite a few calls and emails about her background.

Act 3: Totally out of concern, of course, the Idol reps then tell the aspiring star that no one would blame her if she dropped out of the competition. "See what you want to do," Barbara says. "The choice is up to you. You can quit. No shame."

Back to the fallout.

Here's more American Idol executive Ken Warwick on responding to the alleged drama: Certainly, under no circumstances was she ever approached to be talked out of taking part in the show. We knew she had a baby right from day one, and she was always strongly tipped to win the competition because she was so good. I can absolutely refute that nothing was done, or even remotely suggested to her that she shouldn't take part in the competition.

That's nice.like thinking this was a good news story, but then realizing I really didn't care so.

We'll skip the jewelry and go right to my place.I mean MySpace.com/ebengregory.
