“Idol” snitches are dishing that America may have fallen in love with Sanjaya Malakar, but his fellow contestants apparently aren’t so smitten.

An inside source has revealed that some of the remaining “Idol” hopefuls are annoyed that the vocally-challenged seventeen-year-old continues to advance, while other “more talented” singers get sent home. We’re told the contestants are not-so-much mad at Sanjaya, but at the situation, which finds websites like votefortheworst.com and satellite radio host Howard Stern urging fans to keep Sanjaya in — simply as a joke.

The “Idols” don’t find it funny, since it’s their future being toyed with.

The tattling source adds that the contestants find it troublesome that they all work so hard to pick the right song and rehearse each week, but it appears that all Sanjaya really has to do to move forward is to show up wearing a scrunchie.

No word from “Idol.”
