Sanjaya Malakar is showing his desperation to distract the American public from his bad karaoke by performing in a ridiculous mohawk hairdo. The "fauxhawk" was actually made up of seven little ponytails on top of his head.

As far as his performance goes last night, he was apparently so busy perfecting his fauxhawk that he forgot to learn the lyrics to No Doubt's 'Spoiler'.

The website Idolator reports that Gwen Stefani, who was the guest last night, was so put off by Sanjaya's lackluster performances during rehearsal, she went to producers to put the kibosh on his performing any of her tunes.

"Sanjaya Malakar - He wanted to sing "Spoiler". She tried to get him to sing some 80's song. He said he was a big fan and he really wanted to do one of her songs. Gwen was upfront with him and told him she didn't think he could pull it off but gave him the benefit of the doubt. Today after seeing how rehearsals were going, she didnt' see any progress. She went to Nigel immediately and told him she does not want Sanjaya singing one of her songs whatsoever. Sanjaya didn't have many options at that point. He kind of got stuck with "Spoiler". This caused a big scene at the studio and was the talk all afternoon."

Oh snap! Even Gwen thinks you can't sing, dude! Go home already!
