I was flipping channels and caught this. Disturbing on many levels. Or at least a few.

This is extremely bizarre.

Maybe now he can finally come back and play another show in NYC. What the shit was that? Bummer.
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 9:29 AM
Why is everyone surprised? Maybe Ibby has to pay some bills!
Posted by The Real Real Yup. PERIOD | April 8, 2011 9:40 AM
yeah maybe Ibby has to pay some bills.
In other news, a stooges show at MHOW or Bowery would be killer

"his skin is like leather"
Pray you look that good when you are his age.
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 9:44 AM
^ If I looked like Iggy at my age, I take my shirt off all the time.
Posted by The Real Real Yup. PERIOD | April 8, 2011 9:48 AM
^^ Also maybe I'm hungover which is why I said Ibby instead of Iggy...jesus.
Posted by The Real Real Yup. PERIOD | April 8, 2011 9:49 AM
why is "his skin is like leather" being taken as an insult or something? i'd love for my skin to be leather-like.

"Who?" says the average viewing audience of American Idol.
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 10:25 AM
The average American Idol audience will probably download the live performance today on iTunes. Today Iggy's bank acct just got bigger. I say good on him.
Posted by The Real Real Yup. PERIOD | April 8, 2011 10:27 AM
You mean FOX's bank account got bigger.
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 10:30 AM
yeah really, no one knew who arcade fire is... you think anyone had any inkling who Iggy is? Which is amusing because even Iggy is pretty huge. Good for Iggy... or as he's being referred to on here, "Ibby"
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 10:30 AM
just flipped on my tv and it was on nbc and they were discussing this on the today show. they called it 'weird and disturbing.'
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 10:35 AM
I think the producers were trying to get me to start watching American Idol and it didn't work.

HE SHOULD HAVE DONE "WE WILL FALL". That would have killed. Literally.

I second that.

I love the fact that Jennifer Lopez doesn't even know who he is.
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 11:14 AM
Iggy Pop can do whatever he wants. But I thought he and Tyler hated each other? He did kind of snub him when he walked up to the judge's table haha
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 11:16 AM
Would have been awesome if he shit on someone...

^ If we can get the ghost of GG Allin, maybe!
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 11:33 AM
Iggy would kick Tyler's ass out of the building if they got into a fight. Steven Tyler sucks. As far as NBC calling this 'disturbing?' I think that main stream America can be 'disturbing.'
Posted by The Real Real Yup. PERIOD | April 8, 2011 11:33 AM
He should have cut his chest with broken glass like in the old days. Give a real lesson in showmanship.

Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 11:45 AM
He should have peed on Seacrest, but then maybe they wouldn't have given him is check. C'est la vie.
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 11:51 AM
^^^ Iggy peed on Seacrest and 'America voted' that it was the right thing to do.

Why isn't there a Jennifer Lopez tag? Or Randy Jackson? Or Randy Watson for that matter?

The old dudes who watch this shit at work were like "Who was the guy without the shirt on last night?" I hope he got payed. Sad to see your heroes do this kinda crap.
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 3:01 PM
I wonder what all the proud stooges fans think? c'mon guys chime in.
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 3:18 PM
^ moronic comment of the week? "The old dudes" knew who Iggy was about 20 years before you were born. He's your hero?

American Idol is so PunKKK Rock.

Iggy Pop will be appearing at the opening of the new Fairway on Atlantic Ave next Saturday. He will be joined by a lemur in a cage and some guy who says he knows how to work a sock puppet.
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 3:56 PM
this is terribly wrong.

Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 4:11 PM
Cringeworthy. He should have performed "Your Pretty Face is Going to Hell," and dedicated it to J. Lowlife.
Posted by Anonymous | April 8, 2011 4:22 PM
That would be cool if next week the American Idol made all the crappy singers sing Stooges songs and they did. Yeah that would be so rad. The raddest even. So cool. Wow! This is so awesome! American Idol and Iggy Pop! Yeah!! Singers singing the Stooges. Safe but rebellious. Cross promotion. Progress. Coolness. Radness. Yesness. I wanna go there. I wanna stay there. It's gonna be great but not too great but still awesome. Awesome!

Oh what are you all complaining about? Most of you weren't near born when he was at his peak and he was on the Dinah Shore show back then.

This was a great year for American Idols Live and everyone here should just let their comments go. Some talented young kids won and they have great futures ahead of them. Make sure you see all the finalists live when they tour the nation during the summer of 2011.
