MORE NAKED NUDE PICTURES OF AMERICAN IDOL'S ANTONELLA BARBA IN LESBIAN POSE

Antonella Barba's Lesbian Stand !

Is Antonella Barba Our Next American Idol ?

As more naked and nude pictures of American Idols Antonella Barba surface, there talk of her posing for Playboy . Laura Saltman of Access Hollywood was at the Playboy Mansion for the party celebrating the season three premiere of the E! channel's 'The Girls Next Door', and asked for the Playboy boss's take on the Antonella Barba racy photographs online controversy. After showing Hugh Hefner the photos, he remarked, "She really looks sexy here." Asked if he would consider making Antonella an offer to pose for Playboy should she be voted off 'Idol' early, Hef answered, "Very real possibility. Yes, absolutely." But all of that is going to have to wait at least another few days as Antonella was not voted off of American idol despite predictions of her demise. The New Jersey babe is safe and survived the week two cuts. Hefner, who knows a thing or two about nudity in photos, says calls for 'American Idol' to remove the 20-year-old's saucy pictures "hypocritical and dumb." Hefner told USA Today, "I think in America we have a very strange attitude toward sexuality and nudity, and it makes no real sense." I'm about 90% sure that Playboy is seriously at work on getting the Point Pleasant Beach babe for its summer issue. It's really not complicated: She'll get booted next week, and then possibly fly to California for her Playboy shoot by the end of the month. Hef will have her on the cover of the May or June issue of Playboy.

FRIENDS OF AMERICAN IDOL TOILET SINGER ANTONELLA BARBA SAY PICS NOT HER

ANTONELLA BARBA LETS GO

Is It Or Not Antonella Barba ? You Decide !

A close friend of "American Idol" semi-finalist Antonella Barba says that the aspiring singer is not the subject of some graphically sexual pictures purported to be of her that were posted on the Internet last week. Barba's best friend, Amanda Coluccio of Holmdel, with whom she auditioned and won a trip to Hollywood for the second round before being eliminated, told The Star-Ledger of Newark that the less graphic photos are of Barba, but denied she is pictured in the pornographic ones. Meanwhile, here in the 20-year-old's hometown, where signs abound wishing her good luck, friends and strangers alike are supporting Barba, saving their condemnation for whomever posted the pictures online. The fallout has many young people here thinking twice about posing for photos they thought were just to be shared among friends. "It's the way this town is: Everybody knows everything about their friends," said Mark Dillon, 17. "At least half the people in this town have pictures of their friends on the toilet. I've personally seen at least 20. It's only because she's on TV that they're online." Adam Bobertz, also 17, said what happened to Barba could happen to anyone. "Everyone in this town has done something stupid at one time or another," he said. Throughout Point Pleasant, a Jersey shore town of 18,177 about 60 miles north of Atlantic City, signs supporting Barba are many. They went up before the photos surfaced, and remain there, a symbol of her hometown's disdain for the commotion surrounding her. Jacqui Reid, a florist whose daughter took violin lessons from Barba, said making the photos public was a gross invasion of privacy, but one that has become a fact of life in the digital age. "Everyone has incriminating photos of one sort or another, and you never know when it's going to turn around and bite you on the you-know-what," she said. "It's a shame you can't just live your life and not have to worry about something like this becoming public. "She's this attractive, talented girl who's also intelligent and knows where she wants to go," Reid said. "I consider her a role model for my daughter". Her parents, Vincenzo and Valerie Barba, did not immediately respond to messages left on their answering machine and a letter left at their front door. A Fox publicist said the network would have no comment on the situation, and would not make any of the contestants available for interviews.

RACY STORY ON AMERICAN IDOL'S NAKED STAR ANTONELLA BARBA PULLED FROM FOX TV'S NEW YORK CITY STATION

American Idol's Antonella Barba Naked

Whether reporting on the latest Jack Bauer bind or Simon Cowell barb, the news teams at Fox affiliates are aces at pushing network synerge specially during sweeps. But Fox's New York City flagship, WNYW, dropped the ball last week on its American Idol tie-in. During Idol's Wednesday broadcast, a series of Fox 5 News promos breathlessly urged viewers to tune in at 10 p.m. for a report promising revealing photos of New Jersey Idol hopeful Antonella Barba. But as the newscast got under way, there was scant mention of Barba or the racy photos. It wasn't until 10:45 that anchor Rosanna Scotto said technical difficulties had scuttled the segment.Turns out Fox 5 spiked the Barba story in the name of democracy. According to a WNYW spokesperson, the station did not want to influence viewers who were still dialing and texting in their votes. (And this didn't occur to anyone before the station began plugging the story?) As for the photo which include a shot of Barba and friends topless at the beach, albeit with strategically placed hand they could be found online last week. Alas, none were available on Barba's MySpace page. With yet another News Corp. property in the mix, WNYW might've run the story and scored a cross-promotional trifecta.
