What happened to the discography on this page? As a recording artist, he should retain the discography that used to be on this page. lone_twin 15:51, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced rumors[edit]

Mario vasquez IS very much gay and has had a boyfriend for some time now, he is a hair dresser from LA (his BF) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.215.26.82 (talk) 04:40, 29 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Finally. --98.232.180.37 (talk) 05:28, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Question -- Why isn't the controversy even mentioned in the article? He was asked in an interview, I forget who, some major magazine or something, about whether he was gay or not. Why isn't this in the article? Its relevant. --97.125.124.136 (talk) 00:45, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It really needs to be mentioned in the article. I remember reading about that interview. --98.232.181.201 (talk) 14:06, 4 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wasn't he asked about it in an interview and vehemently (and pissily/bitchily, I might add) denied it. The very fact its been a controversy means it ought to be mentioned in the article. --98.232.178.38 (talk) 04:28, 20 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That is such a lie and that guy's crazy as ***k, I know the name of the guy I think his name is something Olmos. I met him when I went to see why those companies listed cut off the Baywatch theme song. Wierd, but hey at least I'm not lying about someone being gay or asking for blowjobs.74.195.5.83 20:07, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's been shown in countless ways that Vasquez is, in fact, homosexual. Whether he did this act of harassment is another matter for the courts to decide. 66.193.183.3 02:21, 19 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I wonder how the fact that someone has attended "gay dance camps" proves that he is bisexual. Also, these claims appear to be unsubstantiated. While citing the lawsuit and scandal is obviously encyclopedic, mentioning his personally unconfirmed homosexuality or bisexuality seems inappropriate. Is there any proof? --Lordmusea 18:10, 16 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mario is gay, and he's out of the closet. He doesn't make it a secret. Also, calling this "sexual harassment" is moronic, and yes, I'm talking to all you teeny boppers who can't deal with the fact the guy is gay. Get over it. Go watch Mylie. --98.232.180.37 (talk) 05:25, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

"Most Added?"[edit]

This idea that one of Vasquez's songs was the "most added" songs on radio stations sounds like corporate spin. What a nothing bit of information. Removing it if no objections.

Lawsuit[edit]

Since he was on idol more than a few years ago, the only people that will see this page are ones researching the lawsuit that was filed around the time he left idol. I only read a few blogs and the TMZ story, but the court document- looked legit (Even with the TMZ watermark). Any followup with this lawsuit? did it die? settled? on going? --Billy Nair (talk) 00:37, 4 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
