Access Hollywood | Sanjaya's Seattle Drag Show & Long-Lost Video… Plus, Lily Allen's Depression | Celebrity and Hollywood News Booted "Idol" Sanjaya Malakar appeared on-stage surrounded by drag queens singing “It’s Raining Men,” at a concert thrown last Sunday night by a Seattle radio station. When KISS-106.1 FM radio in Seattle held their “Girls Night Out” concert Sunday in Everett, featuring Fergie, Hilary Duff, Katharine McPhee & Lily Allen, Malakar was the guest of honor! As you can see in this video on YouTube from the event, he appears slightly bewildered at the scene taking place around him. According to Marcus D. Najera, the program director for 106.1, “Sanjaya was completely aware of the situation, and we had spoken about it for days in advance. He was on our morning show the next morning to talk about it. We weren’t trying to ambush him at all. The crowd loved it and it was a chance for them to cheer for their hometown boy.” “The drag queens played in with the theme of “Girl’s Night Out,” Najera continued.
