Suing Mad 'Idol' Reject: I'm Gonna Bring 'AI' Down
The guy who's suing "American Idol" for allegedly exploiting his sexual orientation says he deserves a $300,000,000 payday ... and claims he's going to "bring American Idol down."
TMZ ran into Ian Benardo in New York where he also berated a "bum" for asking him for directions -- before continuing to preach about how words can be hurtful.
"American Idol" producer FremantleMedia had no comment on the lawsuit.
