Las Vegas, NV - Kitschy American Idol Star William Hung, famous for
his botching of Ricky Martins She Bangs, was found dead
yesterday, apparently of an intentional heroin overdose. The
announcement of his death sent shockwaves to the tens of people who
still found him funny.
Ironically, Mr. Hung was found by a VH1 camera crew sent to begin
filing William Hung: Behind the Music. Viacom immediately
decided to rename the special: William Hung: fifteen minutes till
death.
Friends of Mr. Hung say he had become despondent in recent days. I
dont know, its just so sad, said Ming Tse, one of Hungs former
classmates at Stanford, I heard him the other day on Snotbubbles
Morning Madhouse; he kept trying to make William say things like
me so horny and hey sailor while playing the sound of a bomb
falling. I just know William was hurting inside when Snotbubble got
him to say, you wanna some-e egg foo young-e. It was so sad. I
just think he was tired of the commercialization of it all.
Other friends, who had lost contact with him in recent weeks,
feared he was becoming too Hollywood. Im not surprised he was
on heroin, said Hungs engineering cohort Melvin Samples, I mean
just two months ago we were out at our usual corner table at
Smittys, and William actually went and talked to some girls. The
next thing I know hes doing shots with some hipster guys; they
were calling him Long Duck Dong and making him say
au-to-mo-bile. From what I hear, its not a long leap from that
to heroin addiction.
Stanfords hippy population immediately misconstrued the situation
and adopted Hungs death as a pet cause. He was a victim of the
corporate greed-machine, just like Kurt [Cobain] and Eddie [Vedder,
who is actually still alive], said one dreadlocked mourner outside
the engineering department at Stanford University, where a
makeshift memorial had been set up, he just wanted to sing, and
Fox decided to turn him into this joke, man, this fucking joke.
They just ate him up and spit him out. Fucking Bill OReily. I
think its because he was against the war. The last comment is
apparently in reference to the fact that Hung once answered no,
thank you when asked whether he was for or against the war in
Iraq.
The Las Vegas police released part of his suicide note. It read, I
have no reason of living . . . my art which is my importance to the
best everybody laugh to . . . I make end here . . . goodbye world
of cruel.
Although Hungs immediate family disowned him seconds after his
appearance on American Idol, it is believed he has an aunt in
Toledo, Ohio who will take care of funeral arrangements
