Sign over your self-respect please.

An excerpt from the American Idol audition form release:

I understand that I may reveal, and other parties may reveal, information about me that is of a personal, private, embarrassing or unfavorable nature, which information may be factual and/or fictional. I further understand that my appearance, depiction and/or portrayal in the Program may be disparaging, infamatory, embarrassing or of an otherwise unfavorable nature which may expose me to public ridicule, humiliation or condemnation. I acknowledge and agree that Producer shall have the right to (a) include any of all such information and appearances, depictions or portrayals in the Program as edited by Producer in its sole discretion, and (b) to broadcast and otherwise exploit the Program containing any or all such information and appearances, depictions or portrayals in any manner whatsoever in any and all media now known or hereafter devised, or for any other purpose, through the universe in perpetuity.

Hah. I wonder how many people actually read this before signing. :) Now, no telling them about my porn-writing fancies if I happen to go to the next round, you hear me?

September 8th, here I come! With bells and humiliation on.
