Haley Scarnato Surprised at All the Fuss Over Her (Lack Of) Clothing
Recently ousted Idol contestant Haley Scarnato didn't think her shorts and short skirts were a big deal, but after Simon brought up her skimpy clothing in his comments Tuesday night, her wardrobe seems to be what everyone wants to ask her about.
After Haley's performance of"Turn the Beat Around" on Tuesday night, Simon commented that her tactic must be to "wear the least amount of clothes as possible."
Scarnato didn't see what the big deal was. "It's just legs. It is what it is. It's legs. I mean I don't even know what to say about it. It's frustrating because I'm just trying to go out there and perform and sing, and it is a singing competition, and they weren't listening to me anymore."
Tuesday wasn't the first time Simon had alluded to her oufit. In the round of 11 , he called her a "naughty little thing" after she came out in short shorts to perform "Tell Him". "I still want to stay in that frame of mind you have to respect him," said Haley. "He's Simon Cowell. It does hurt a little bit, but you've just got to brush it off and try to get through it. You can't please everybody. I didn't go shorter. I didn't wear less clothes. I just did the same thing." She continued "I mean I never really changed my look since Hollywood Week. I kind of showed my midriff a little bit and stuff like that. I want to stay true to who I am and it's fun dressing up."
Scarnato insists that her clothing was meant to match the vibe of the song and genre she was singing to, not to get viewers looking at her midriff. "You know playing the part of the theme week and the song that you're singing. I don't think I wore less clothes than before. I think I stayed true to who I am."
Though she is off the show, this is not the end for Haley. She will return to the American Idol tour this summer, and after that anything is possible. Don't expect her to be wearing a revealing outfit this summer though. If she hadn't been voted off on Wednesday, her attire would have changed drastically next week. "If I was still going to be here next week I was going to wear a choir robe," she said.
