Taylor Hicks' Tale of Two Women Walks on

Taylor Hicks' Tale of Two Girlfriends hit the pages of America On-Line today. All I could say was, "Holy Crap!" Man, you've just got to feel a twinge for Ms. Lyders. It's one thing for a guy to get randy on a beach with a babe, but to be touted as the girlfriend of interest, then speculation and evidence comes to the forefront discounting your place in the story - what can that be like? Certainly it would not be pleasant to be walking in her shoes.

Rather than interest waning in this Tale of Two Women,interest seems to be growing. The copy title on the America On-Line News article reads, "Idol Hicks' Gal Pal Under Scrutiny". It seems that RADAR Magazine reporter, Neel Shah has captured the attention of a broader market in entertainment news.

The AOL News article includes, "Fans and bloggers rushed to analyze the beach photos with TV stills of Lyders, and concluded that she was not the person Hicks' reps said she was." The story, even though it defies rationality and logic apparently has legs because it keeps on walking. There is a poll available for readers to hit to voice their opinion of the story. To keep it real and AOL News recognizes some voters might be more 'motivated' than others and says in the clause,
NOTE: Poll results are not scientific and reflect the opinions of only those users who chose to participate. Poll results are not reflected in real time. That should keep the FanTards at Fanatics busy for some time.

RADAR Magazine Calls Out to Taylor Hicks

Taylor Hicks' tale of two women that has ended up with garnering me my share of on-line harassment, continues as a popular target for RADAR Magazine. Neel Shah, in his latest article basically calls out to Taylor Hicks, 'all ye, all ye outs in free'. Come out, come out where ever you are...

Neel Shah also provides Lois Gibson a voice to have her say to the rabid fans that have been apparently flooding her email box with their posts of wrath and as she puts it, "I have gotten some feedback from fans and they are not acting logically at all. .." I think she's perhaps making a mistake by claiming to enjoy Mr. Hicks and being a fan. The logic from the rabid fans, or rather the illogic, will be, 'why did she not keep her mouth shut' and 'how if she's a fan could she drink the MFOYA Kool Aid'. I sympathize Ms. Gibson, these ladies are illogical.

They can also be single-mindedly vicious, they have this need for someone to hate. Someone to be the Villian. Watch out Ms. Gibson, they have your e.mail and website now.

Speaking of those devils, that fool who goes by 'mfoyasucks' and the site leader, 'chill' of the Fanatics had to have their daily fix of ripping out my virtual entrails. It's an almost daily obsession for them. They must live and breathe waiting for me to post the way they visit this site daily and look for anything to comment negatively on.

Did they talk about my Super Bowl story? Oh, no, that would be too normal, they must try and get the most hate for their time, biggest bang for their buck so to speak. It seems to be all they understand and what they hold dear, the hate and the spite. Mfoyasucks, your soul is as ugly as that picture you had up of yourself recently.

Specifically to mfoyasucks, the lurker and coward extraordinaire, I wrote what I did on this post because someone in your little group thinks you are all as nutty as the proverbial fruitcake. I think what really eats you is wondering who that might be.

That said, my comments were directed toward Margaret, not to you. Regarding my sanity that you are questioning, take a moment and look hard in the mirror, both of you. You might scare the living Hell out of yourselves. It's so shamelessly cowardly to hide on your site and insult me with my not being able to respond to the site. You feel all protected so it's easy to write what you'd like to make yourselves feel better about you. Crazy is getting yourselves as invested in what I say and what I write as you apparently are - I mean why shouldn't I feel important when I have your group frothing daily over me. It seems to provide them some kind of an orgasmic experience to pick me a part and talk about me. Try a vibrator, from now on, it might work better.

Bluzcat apparently wants to not be associated in any way with your site from the sound of her commentary. That was too funny. I was told negative things about her, but my guess is she's really all right.

Radar Magazine Nails the Tale of Two Women

Taylor Hicks' girlfriend sham uncovered? Has the mystery really come to a conclusion? RADAR Magazine pulled in a big gun for the identification process for the Tale of Two Women in the world of Taylor Hicks. For the past eight or nine months a controversy has been brewing steeped by the site began by the on-line entity, MFOYA. Radar Magazine, the magazine for political news and entertainment snark has let intrepid reporter, Neel Shaw continue his expose of this little internet brouhaha aided by the on-line presence that began this investigation.

Interestingly, one of the first articles out about Taylor Hicks on RADAR Magazine was met with over 400 posts, whereas this last and most recent post has under 200 comments currently. This article introduces Lois Gibson, a forensics artist gifted with almost preternatural ability to create likenesses of people from the most meager of descriptions. Lois Gibson is convinced from the photographs presented to her by RADAR Magazine that the ladies in the images are definitely two different women. She cites facial features including jaw line and depth, and cheek construction and notes the ear placements on the lady's skull.

Lois Gibson is an expert on identification qualifications, and definitely shoots my conclusion that the women were the same one. I had looked at the pictures one afternoon and simply found more like facial points than different, decided that all were of Ms. Lyders, just in different positioning and lighting. The height discrepancies indicated in the photographs I allocated to perspective and uneven terrain. I just could not find logic in the storyline and perhaps tried in my brain to find a reasonable facsimile for explanation. It's still a mystery to me why Ms. Lyders would even want to attach her name to anything of this fantastical level but then, I do not know her. As far as Mr. Hicks is concerned, that too has me puzzled as to the man's motive. I'm not casting judgment against anyone involved regarding character, it's not my place. Saying that,Taylor Hicks nor Caroline Lyders have not issued any form of statement regarding this situation or their bonafide position in the story.

Upon reading through the RADAR Magazine site, and the comments in this last article, I saw the poster, celebrityblondebabe had made her appearance. She has included posts of web page long commentary slamming the magazine and attempting to make her case that the photographs provided Ms. Gibson were not authentic. Too, she tries to turn blame to the on-line entity, MFOYA for supplying touched up photos to RADAR Magazine. CBB, as she will be known from this point on, includes copy-paste disclaimers found on the magazine's website. In providing this information she works to make her case that RADAR Magazine puts no credibility in anything regarding information and opinion that MFOYA has brought to their attention. She is answered by a poster going by simply "Michael". In excerpts from his post, he addresses the claims by CBB that RADAR Magazine and MFOYA could be held libel,
Celebrityblondebabe, are you in fifth grade?...IF the allegations are blatant lies which can be proven. Do your homework. This is basic law. The only defense for libel/slander/defamation is the "truth." If they cannot prove that it is true, then it's 99.9% of the time because it is actually a lie and they have no grounds...So if what you say is true and they are being libeled, slander, and photoshopped, then Taylor Hicks is the stupidest man in America and the news anchor is the stupidest woman in American which is why they don't sue when they have grounds and instead prefer to have their reputations smeared from here to perpetuity (since the information highway is permanent)

OR they just don't have a case because none of the 3 cause of actions are being committed and the information being written about them is indeed the truth."


I noticed on the RADAR Magazine staff page, there is listed a Michael Small, the magazine's General Manager. Whether they are one in the same, I have no confirmation.

I'm using CBB as an example simply because she eloquently exhibits the typical fanatical fringe fans in the Hicks' fan base. She is also an enthusiastic member of the Caroline Lyders Fan Club, which is gaining an on-line reputation for the place to be if your are indeed a part of the lunatic fan fringe. I followed a link sent to me this morning from a friend, and found that CBB has gone to work employing her investigative talents. She divulges information that poster, BabyPhat on the RADAR site is none other that Taylor Hicks himself. In a quote off of the CL Fan Club, the lady writes; celebrityblondebabe: February 1, 2008 at 8:14 pm
"Anyone know a character that raps on fansites? A person that I was just told from an old board that they thought was T? I may have insulted the main man…my bad. Apparently, some of Taylor Hicks' fans say that he has the propensity to post in 'rap' on fan sites. That piece of information for whatever it's worth is at least worth repeating. I can't help but wonder how Taylor Hicks might respond to that curiosity. Most likely the same way he's responding to everything else.

Recent rumors hold that the promised DVD, "Whomp at the Warfield" has been canned. Now, is that canned as in completed or canned as in over and out? My, my Taylor Hicks, what will be discovered next? I hope an outstanding album and some intelligent answers to the question on a growing number of folks mind...Why?
