American Idol Contestant Jermaine Jones Says Producers are Lying. He Never Told Story About An Estranged Father!

You got caught buddy!  Desperate times calls for desperate measures and that’s what Jermaine Jones took.

Jones was a wild card pick that was once eliminated and then brought back and made it to the final 13.  Apparently being ousted and brought back, and being a 6 ft 8 vocal instructor from New Jersey was not enough drama for Jones.  He wanted more, so he made some up.

JONES FAKES ESTRANGED FATHER RELATIONSHIP

To add some drama to his personal plight, Jones tells producers that his estranged father popped up out of nowhere to contact him.  He said that his dad abandoned him and his mom 10 years ago and showed up just now that his son was getting famous and he could smell the payday.  He even goes as far as to say that his Dad was a lousy father and he wanted nothing to do with him.

The story gets to TMZ, and what does TMZ do?  They contact his pops.  OOPS!!

Jermaine’s Dad, Kevin Jones is shocked when contacted by TMZ.  He denies the whole story saying that none of it is true.

WHO’S TELLING THE TRUTH???

That was easy – the dad.  In fact not only was the father in the audience during last week’s performance, he took his son out to dinner on Wednesday and Thursday the prior week.  Jermaine Jones’ mom further verified the father’s story.  In a statement made to the New Jersey Star ledger his mom Katrice Cornett validates Kevin Jones’ statements about his relationship with his son,

His dad is in the picture, They have a relationship.

She even says that she and her ex remain on good terms as well.

JONES TAKES TO TWITTER AND DENIES EVERYTHING

Jones has been active on twitter just denying everything and tweeting out a bunch of religous crap that his followers are eating up.  (@JJonesAI11).

Here are some of his tweets!

“How can I be lying and I never said anything, This story on tmz. I did not lie to anyone I also did not t(al)lk to or ask anyone to t(a)lk to tmz on my behalf in the first place..”

Its my gift that will make room for me….and the favor of God on my life…..not no stupid story,” said Jones.

Just got off the phone with my mother… God is so good nd hes an on time God! They nailed him to the cross nd hes the son of God..Thank you lord for tests and trials for they come to make you strong…. #iwasnotBUILTtoBREAK!,”

This might help “American Idol’s” ratings which have been dwindling because drama is drama.  I thought Jones was a cocky arrogant SOB anyway.  I’m glad he was exposed.  He can sing, but not nearly good enough to be on Idol.  This will now make everyone skeptical of everyone else’s backstories which is ok as far as I’m concerned.  I think that people cared way to much about backstories anyway.  This is a singing competition.  The public doesn’t like to be lied to, so if Jermaine Jones even breathes wrong, I’m sure he will be toast!
