Dubious Daimoku on American Idol

NichirenChantingHumorBuddhism

Ouch. Worst Horse has the video:

Alexis Cohen, one of American Idol's most infamous contestant/auditioners, has returned for a second round. But this time, instead of starting off with a lot of ass-wiggling, bird-flipping, and cursing, she started off by chanting Na myo renge kyo, and finishing up by saying, "That's Buddhism." (A couple of birds did fly out at the end.)

Uh, way to represent. No wonder people think Nichiren Buddhism is flaky hokum.
