Danny Noriega Fans — American Idol 7

Danny Noriega

Danny Noriega Fans are actually called “Worsters”, but over at IDF they call themselves “Danny’s Fannies”. LOL

I’m a bit worried now about Danny Noriega’s chances. I think it is in American Idol’s best interest to keep him until the Top 12, but we might have a scare for the next two weeks. So Danny Noriega fans we have to dig in. I think Idol showing Danny Noriega cry when Colton Berry got eliminated helped him a bit. Hopefully the “Berry Bunch” will vote for Danny Noriega next week.

Danny’s Fannies = sounds like Trannies

Brainstorming… Danny’s Proud Marys

Go Danny!

Can we have an Amanda fan group too, or am I the only one?

Naughty Nurses?

does anyone know danny’s ethnic background? he looks like he could totally be filipino but i’m guessing not because otherwise he’d be getting the buzz that ramiele is for representing the PI. i know noriega is a spanish name but lots of filipinos (my family included) have spanish names.

I’m a fan of Danny, too, but I call myself a Danny-lion. Like dandelions, but a thousand times better. :]

I really like how clever I am.

wow, another great screen cap, rickey. you really know how to capture the best emotion. still can’t forget your josiah’s screen cap.

He looks nothing like a Filipino. He’s half Japanese (as evident from his last name).

I subscribe to the Danny Noriega Fan Thread at Idolforums and I guess you could call me a “Fanny”.

Someone suggested on there that we change our name to the Proud Marys but I was the only other person who liked that one. But everyone else likes Danny’s Fannys so, reluctantly, I’m a Fanny too.

Note to amber: Danny is Mexican American.

there you go.. tell me what you think.

velocitygirl on February 23, 2008 at 1:25 am

Eh, sort of.

He reminds me a little of Pete Wentz but with better style.

TainaAzteca on February 23, 2008 at 1:30 am

i THINK its the hair.
Its probably the hair.

velocitygirl on February 23, 2008 at 1:32 am
13

It’s definitely the hair. But his facial features are similar to Pete W’s as well.

TainaAzteca on February 23, 2008 at 1:43 am
14

Ehh, he looks like a generic punk-rock-wannabe kid. Just my opinion.

velocitygirl on February 23, 2008 at 2:19 am

Moonface:

I hope you’re kidding with your post. Noriega is Spanish NOT Japanese.

TainaAzteca on February 23, 2008 at 7:23 am
16

Whoa, he’s not Japanese, is he? >.<

velocitygirl on February 23, 2008 at 7:29 am
17

No, he’s not Japanese!

He’s hispanic, Mexican American to be exact.

TainaAzteca on February 23, 2008 at 7:46 am

*is relieved.*
He’s such an pseudo-emo-pretty-boy.
=]

LOL @ velocitygirl

Ok, not sure exactly what you’re trying to say but…oh well

TainaAzteca on February 23, 2008 at 8:02 am

@ taina,
What am I trying to say? I’m trying to say that even though Noriega is a smooth-haired-tarsier-eyed-emo-wannabe, he’s pretty adorable. I’ll probably not vote for him (impossible in any case), but I’m willing to put him on a leash and walk him around the neighbourhood.

velocitygirl on February 23, 2008 at 9:04 am
21

Ahhh….

I’m gonna leave that one alone lol

TainaAzteca on February 23, 2008 at 9:12 am

Yeah, I don’t know what I was thinking.
I should shut up now.
AAAH, ITS ANOTHER WHOLE WEEK UNTIL IDOL.

velocitygirl on February 23, 2008 at 9:30 am

I run a Danny fancomm on eljay called Danny Bois!. I should subscribe to the AI forums, but they’re a freakin’ cesspool. Bleh.

I adore this kid, and hopefully the Berry Bunch will show him some love. I didn’t hear this rumor about David H you’re throwin around. This should be a really interesting season.

StickyKeys on February 23, 2008 at 11:37 am

I like Danny Bois.
Cool, and little, and not as weird as a Fanny, and Proud Mary.

velocitygirl on February 23, 2008 at 12:06 pm
25

by the way, the ai site spells his name is NORRIEGA. with two r’s.

velocitygirl on February 23, 2008 at 1:36 pm
26

Yes, StickyKeys, the official AI boards are know as “the scary boards” for a reason!

velocity:

It’s weird that the official AI site spells his name with 2 r’s. I’m going to have to check that out.

According to his Myspace, it’s spelled with one r.

TainaAzteca on February 23, 2008 at 2:47 pm
27

I usually troll around on TWoP but it’s dramatastic.

And yeah, the AI official site is weird. Though it if were an “rr” then you could trill his last name from now into eternity and that would be rad.

StickyKeys on February 23, 2008 at 6:12 pm
28

First of all, what’s TWoP?

One place to avoid is IMDB, espcecially if you’re a Danny fan. That place is Hater Central.

Well, I looked on the official AI site and they spell his name with 1 r.

But you’re right, StickyKeys, it would be fun to roll the double rr!

TainaAzteca on February 23, 2008 at 6:28 pm
29

Hey lolnumbers, I like your idea, but maybe spelled Dannylions? har har…

laureldj on February 23, 2008 at 8:44 pm

thanks for clearing up the ethnic background question, TainaAzteca. moonface, filipinos are very diverse in appearance and many filipinos have some spanish ancestry.

amber on February 23, 2008 at 9:43 pm
31

You’re welcome amber. However, I think he’s half Mexican because I think his mom is white.

I’m not feeling the Dannylions. It’s too cutesy. We need something FIERCE.

I think we should call ourselves The Proud Marys.

TainaAzteca on February 23, 2008 at 10:30 pm
32

On the Scary Boards, Danny’s fans call themselves the Danimals.

Reminds me of yogurt.

TainaAzteca on February 24, 2008 at 12:05 am
33

Norrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrriega.
Its so wonderful to roll that r.
Rawr!

Danimal – Eek, no.
Can’t we use his spanish heritage somewhere to come up with a name?
By the way, dannylion is cute, but not powerful enough.

velocitygirl on February 24, 2008 at 12:41 am
34

Ok, now the Spanish Inquisition is beginning to have dual meanings.

velocitygirl on February 24, 2008 at 12:43 am
35

Hey, we could call ourselves Danny’s Spanish Inquisition. LOL

TainaAzteca on February 24, 2008 at 8:54 am
36

Okay, Danny and the Spanish Inquisition would be an AWESOME band name!

TainaAzteca, TWOP is a snork forum where they talk about TV. They have a great Idol forum, but it’s easy to get caught up in mod wars and board drama. Fun, but not this year.

Dannylions is the cutest thing I’ve ever heard and I love it!

StickyKeys on February 24, 2008 at 12:19 pm
37

dude i like the Proud Marys, it’s a play on not only his first audition but the use of the word “mary” as “girl”. as in, “damn mary, danny’s audition was hawt!”

amber on February 24, 2008 at 1:30 pm
38

I agree, Danny and the Spanish Inquisition would make an awsome band name! LOL

Yeah, I’ve heard of Television without Pity. Well, it can’t be as bad as the Internet Movie database (IMDB).

The reason I like the Proud Marys is because it’s the song that more or less introduced Danny to the world.

But some people at Idolforums don’t like it because “Mary” suggests that all Danny’s fans are girls.

TainaAzteca on February 24, 2008 at 2:16 pm
39

Yeah, but Mary is also kind of a gay signifier (“Get you, Mary!”) so it still kind of works. But I don’t know how to fit the straight boy(s) in…

StickyKeys on February 24, 2008 at 3:04 pm
40

Well, I don’t think any of the guys who post on the Danny thread at Idolforums are straight. LOL

But some of the bois on that thread are concerned that it there might be some negative consequences nonetheless.

Funny, I spend the majority of my time around gay bois and I didn’t even think of that.

TainaAzteca on February 24, 2008 at 3:09 pm
41

stickykeys, that’s exactly what i meant. you’re good, mary.

amber on February 24, 2008 at 11:27 pm
42

Bah, if all else fails I’m going to call myself a DANquistador this season. Like a Conquistador, only I’d rather spend my energies on one Spanish boy.

velocitygirl on February 25, 2008 at 4:48 am
43

No one ever expects the Dannish Inquisition…

(oh that was baad, I know!)

StickyKeys on February 25, 2008 at 8:14 pm
44

Yes, that was very bad.
Its ok, you’ll get better.
DANquistadors! I like it. I came up with it.
Lol.
