Danny Gokey is from Milwaukee and is a music teacher and choir leader.
His wife, Sophia, had encouraged him to audition for American Idol.
27-year-old Sophia Gokey died during surgery in July 2008.
She had a congenital heart condition.
Four weeks later, Danny Gorkey auditioned for American Idol.
NOW........
When it was announced that Danny Gokey had made it into the Top 12 of Season 8 of American Idol, his family members showed a picture of his wife on camera, a blatant reminder that he is a grieving widower.
The pimping of his dead wife for sympathy votes comes with his family’s consent since they themselves are doing it — and fans are not reacting kindly to it.
I like Danny Gokey. He can sing. He gives us hope.
Danny, stop your family from parading your dead wife around, and stop American Idol from doing the same.
