Dave Hernandez was once a malestripper -so what!!

Peope are digging dirt again about American Idol hopefuls. Their objective was just to make their website popular because of the controversies they write about the candidates.

Dave Hernandez is among those they have successfully unearthed a not so decent past.

But what the heck, he's been away there for years. If the resource person is telling the truth that he made a lot of money in that club, how come he left and pursued another career.

LOS ANGELES - "American Idol" contestant David Hernandez once entertained audiences by removing his clothes instead of singing tunes, a manager at a male strip club in Phoenix told The Associated Press.

The 24-year-old finalist from Glendale, Ariz., once worked as a stripper at Dick's Cabaret, appearing fully nude and performing lap dances for the club's "mostly male" clientele, club manager Gordy Bryan said Monday.

"He had the look and the type that people like, so he made pretty good money here," Bryan said.
