		<description><![CDATA[Sanjaya Malakar on American Idol makes little girls cry&#8230; and the judges (especially when Paula is spaced out)&#8230; and America. He kind of reminds me of an Asian Indian version of Michael Jackson. All the girls scream and cry because &#8220;He&#8217;s so sensitive and sweet!&#8221; 
I like Sanjaya. Okay, he isn&#8217;t the greatest thing since [...]]]></description>
