One of the most popular contestants ever to appear on American Idol gives his fans an all-access pass to the wildly popular television show — and opens up about how becoming an Idol star changed his life forever
Sanjaya Malakar didn't need to win American Idol to take America by storm. He was just seventeen when his unique style, soft-spoken demeanor, and memorable song selections on the record-breaking show's sixth season captured hearts across the country.
In his candid new book, Sanjaya opens up about what it feels like to go from obscurity as a high school student near Seattle to worldwide fame as a top ten finalist on one of the most popular television shows in American history. For the first time, the "People's Idol" talks about life before Randy, Simon, Paula and "Sanjayamania," and offers his devoted "Fanjayas" an intimate behind-the-scenes look at the blockbuster show. From going to Hollywood with his beloved sister, Shyamali, to becoming the most highly anticipated performer of season six, to facing the unforgiving chopping block, Sanjaya tells his fans everything they want to know. Finally, he shares how his life has changed since he left Idol, and where his music — and unforgettable persona — will take him next.

Dancing to the Music in My Head: Memoirs of the People's Idol
It was a pleasure to revisit Sanjaya's story more than a decade after witnessing it on American Idol. I was a fan of his at the time because of how unapologetically himself he was every week on the show and it's clear to me now that the reason people voted for him, even if they were "trolling" America because they thought he was "the worst", was because deep down viewers enjoyed watching someone who was genuine and a breath of fresh air in the face of a mainstream entertainment industry with often ridiculous standards for talent. Sanjaya always brought that freshness to the table, and what's more he brought it with a graceful heart and a humble attitude that would always shine through. Indeed, that heart shines through in this memoir, which is actually quite readable to the point where I couldn't put it down! I hope he is leading a happy life, nowadays - that he keeps on singing and performing. It's admirable that he remains grateful for his Idol experience after all the controversy; Sanjaya Malakar is a talented, good person who deserves so much better than that.
