Did Simon Spoil Christina Votes With Fiance Revelation?

‘American Idol’ executive producer Nigel Lythgoe was asked by Access Hollywood on Thursday whether Simon Cowell’s revelation on Tuesday’s episode that Christina Christian had a fiance had any role in perhaps men not voting for her. “Then they’re not voting for talent,” he said. “He was upset personally because he has a crush on her, but no, I don’t think that affects the vote.” The fiance news wasn’t exactly a secret, as he had appeared on one of the cable news networks last week.
