Things Get Hairy for Idol's Amanda and Robbie

It seems to be about that time in the
American Idol season.... No, it's not time to start an "If David Doesn't Win, I'll Shave Off All My Hair" campaign; it's that time for all the contestants' skeletons to come stumbling out of their closets. Today, we have two bags of bones for you, and they're pretty darn good.
First up,
TMZ has uncovered that rocker-chick/nurse
Amanda Overmyer was busted for a DUI back in 2006 near her hometown of Mulberry, Indiana. The Harley-riding, gravelly-voiced judges' favorite was given a suspended sentence of 60 days and placed on 180-days probation ending in August 2007. Someone's been a
naughty nurse!
Next up, former boy-bander (and Britney Spears' ex-flame)
Robbie Carrico has been called out for... wait for it... wearing a wig! We wondered why his hair looked so "off," and now it all makes sense. (And it looks like he and Brit still have a lot in common!) According to
TMZ,
Idol producers are "flipping out" because "Robbie never talks about his matted-down piece and that makes production members feel like it's the blond elephant in the room." Sometimes, guys, less is more.
Do you think these revelations will hurt Amanda's and Robbie's chances of advancing? -
