Melissa McGhee: Dog Lover
With all the negative talk about American Idol flameout Jessica Sierra -- her arrest, her disrespect of authority, HER SEX TAPE!!! (go on, click here) -- I'd like to remind you about Tampa Bay's other AI star, the delightful and talented Melissa McGhee.
McGhee (who was a Top 12er on the show in 2006) and I judged Tampa Bay Idol together, and I found her to be smart, sassy and, most importantly, well-balanced.
She's also incredibly hot. But she's using her attractiveness for good, not evil. McGhee posed for the Little Pet Project's 2008 charity calendar, which raises money for homeless animals (click here for the calendar -- fair warning: some of the snaps might be a little too saucy for work).
See? Not all Tampa amateur singing stars go wild. Melissa's a good egg.
Sean Daly is the pop music critic for the St. Petersburg Times. His CD collection -- from Journey to Dylan, Prince to U2, Public Enemy to Stan Getz -- is much bigger and better than yours.
I guess I just don't understand what nudity has to do with dogs. I only see this calendar being good for men - what would I want with it?

I'm a heterosexual man. Why would I want a picture of a pig and a dog?

Pig? PIG?! Trust me, Melissa McGhee is a fine-looking woman.
And I say that journalistically.

Bow-Wow!!

Sorry Bill (and Chris)... She's hot!

Although I have no personal interest in owning the calendar I felt compelled to offer Hoshi a word of advice...Have your eyes checked, she's not nude, and no where does it say it's a nude calendar.

Actually if you look at the calendar, I would say Ms. June can be considered nude, atleast partially.
