"You know, I never came into this wanting to win it.
"I come from an indie, alternative-rock background, and I think winning American Idol would hurt what I was really going for.
"And I think what kind of solidified it in my mind was when I was universally trashed for my arrangement of 'Endless Love.' I kind of thought, 'This isn't really the competition for me.' I actually almost dropped out that week. I went to the guy from 19 (Productions, the company behind Idol), and I was like, 'If I drop out when I get to the top 10, can I still be on tour?" They were like, 'No, you have to get voted out.'"
--Chris Sligh to MTV News,
after his elimination last night
from the American Idol Top Ten.

If he has such disdain for Idol, then why does it seem to matter to him if he's in the tour?

If you're looking for work, Chris, Hurley needs a stunt double.
