America’s newest celebrity object is Antonella Barba. Yes, exactly. Who is she? Well, unless you’ve been living under a rock then you should at least be aware she has some connection with American Idol. If you’re not aware, here’s a refresher. Antonella Barba is one of 12 girls that made it into this years semi-finals of the FOX reality tv show. This past week she’s been the subject of national attention due to some rather racy photos she apparently posed for at some time or another. Some are topless, some feature lingerie, some are more revealing and then the end all, very explicit photos featuring the New Jersey native performing things most of us wouldn’t want mom & dad to see.

The authenticity of the latter photos has been called into question with a number of “experts” debating whether they were doctored, altered or whatever. That and support given by friends of Antonella’s and the lack of a response from the Idol people seem to suggest the worst of the photos are just that, fakes. However, there remains the question of her status on the show. Apparently she will be performing this week so FOX has taken no immediate action.
