American Idol Singer Bared Most for Magazine

'Idol' Singer Bared Most for Magazine

Becky O'Donohue posed with her twin for Maxim

February 22 2006

Becky O'Donohue got her biggest TV exposure to date Tuesday night on "American Idol," where she performed as one of the 12 female semifinalists.

The key words there being "TV exposure," because O'Donohue has exposed some other things in the past.

O'Donohue and her twin sister, Jessie, posed for laddie mag Maxim back in 2004, long before people who weren't fans of Niagara University's women's basketball team (where the twins played from 1998-02) were familiar with them. For those whose local public libraries don't stock back issues of the magazine, Maxim has posted their pictures on its web site.

Voting on O'Donohue's Tuesday (Feb. 21) performance of the Patti Smith/Bruce Springsteen song "Because the Night" has closed, so the pictures won't be of any help to her this week. If she sticks around, though, it's conceivable she could win some new fans (or lose them, depending on one's view of posing for lad mags).

The photo spread appeared in the magazine in 2004 for something called "Maxim Fallacy Baseball." The twins, who've also appeared on NBC's "Fear Factor," are pictured wearing abbreviated baseball attire and, you know, swimsuits.

I predicted to Mr. elc that although she is probably the weakest female singer, she will go far in the competition because of her looks. Simon will see to that.

American Idol represents the complete and utter dumbing down of America. Sheep doing what they are supposed to. Nothing more, nothing less.

I doubt she will be in the finals, wasn't impressed with her performance. I think all the young ones will be in the top finals....In addition to the 2 male singers who sang Wanted Dead or Alive and the Elton John song, those 2 were pretty awesome!

The name of the first page a google search leads to is interesting!

Maxim might be a "men's maganzine", but it's not even as bad as playboy. No nudity at all for those who don't know.

The guy who sang Wanted Dead or Alive IMO was just as good as the original Bon Jovi....

I thought he was better. I would much rather listen to him than Bon Jovi. I've always wondered if Bon Jovi ever gets as sick of himself as the rest of the world does.

I agree. He nailed it. That little kid, he shouldn't have made it to the Top 12. He has nothing. Voice is ok, but not strong and he has no stage presence.
