Wow. He really must have hated those Ford commercials to fake a kidney problem just to get out of all the Idol side work.

I should’ve faked sick to get out of the white, sheer shirt

E Online! schooled me on the latest P Squared kidney fiasco with a great intro and I’ll believe them because they made me chuckle and Ryan Seacrest knows everything.

Apparently, PP is good to go to start the tour July 6, which is a month away, WHICH means there is no way he could have kidney surgery and recover in time. So, to sum that all up; HE WAS FAKING IT!

so, kids… this is how you get out of all that Idol crap…..

A source close to Phillips originally told E! News that he was scheduled to do Idol press in New York and then fly home to Georgia for surgery right after the American Idol finale, and then it was rumored that the procedure had been scheduled.

But he didn’t make it to New York, instead participating in the process remotely. Surgery remains an option, sources tell us, but alternative treatment has proved effective and doctors have given him the OK to commence rocking out next month.

Phillips “is being treated and doing well,” says an insider. Meanwhile, the young man and his family are keeping further details about the nature of his treatment and any future treatment he may require private.

Alternative treatment?? As in he’s been drinking gallons of cranberry juice and noshing on chilli cheese fries?? Nice.

That’s right, Rocco…. see ya on tour. Bring the cranberry juice cocktail!

Glad to hear the kidneys are functioning, but I’m gonna need that TMZ girlfriend of his to tweet the real deets! I need to know the cold hard facts on his health charts.

my kidneys love me! *nom nom nom*

I still want to make out him hard… even after that moaning sesh mid song.
