Dangerfield blew the judges away during the first round of the American Idol show in Milwaukee … only to mysteriously disappear from the show just before Hollywood week.

Dangerfield said that he’s a dedicated student-teacher at a high school in Wisconsin … and when producers told him the dates he would need to be in Hollywood … they clashed with certain obligations he had at the school.

“The kids are depending on me.” he said.

“Idol” producers tried to talk him out of his decision to quit the show … but Scott says he had made up his mind.

But we may not have seen the last of Dangerfield … ’cause the producers are encouraging him to try out again next year … and he’s strongly considering it.

This reminds me of Kurara….. when at the end of 2005, I left for New Year’s eve with my family, in Hawaii and my office called me to inform me that one of the finalists decided to quit because she got a job offer from one of the major publishing company. I already had high hopes in Kurara and asked my staff that she calls me directly. I remember talking to her from a La Moana shopping Mall (!!) on my mobile when she called me. I am glad I could convince her to stay in the competition, because the end story is history of course!

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

To Kurara, …… Big kiss Clara. I tried to call you yesterday while you were shooting for TV, after my 25 ans interview, but I could not reach you and neither Aki chan by the way…. bisous
