Sanjaya Malakar Has a Girlfriend?

Sanjaya Malakar Has a Girlfriend?

American Idol alum Sanjaya Malakar was seen getting cozy and walking arm-in-arm with a ‘female friend’ in Los Angeles on Sunday.

Third wheel sister (and Idol reject) Shyamali accompanied the pair on their lunch date. The brother-sister pair now share a house together in Los Angeles.

Sanjaya recently opened up to People about his music career.

“I’m not in the recording stages yet,” he said. “I’m writing music and starting to interview producers. If I had to define it, it would be alternative pop rock, like Paolo Nutini or James Morrison.”

Sanjaya also mentioned that he’s shopping to do a variety show similar to Donny & Marie in the 1970s.

“[Shyamali and I are] Donny and Marie for the next generation!” Ummm…

Yeah, judging by her face, she definitely got paid some money to do this.

# 6

It’s always such a joy to see such a happy young couple. LOL As far as far as the aspritrations of Sanjaya and his sister are concerned all I say is good luck. Stranger things have happened.

ZAC IS NOT GAY!!!

and Vanessa isnt his fake girlfriend!!!

So do all us a favor and shut the hell up

Good for him. Everyone deserves someone

Um, they’re most likely NOT together. Jared is merely making it interesting by implying something. I’d rather not see another post about him.

You guys are a bunch of dumbasses and homophobes. Have you seen him make out with a guy before or annouce that he is gay no you didn’t.

Sanjaya

does Sanjaya keep Vaseline on his teef? Those chompers look painful

Such an embarrassment.

[~F a m o u s~] @ 01/21/2008 at 5:36 pm

of course he’s gay.

they aren’t fooling anyone.

Sophie [loves Sanjaya] @ 01/21/2008 at 5:36 pm

OMG.
Sanjaya’s hot

Sophie [loves Sanjaya] @ 01/21/2008 at 5:38 pm

Ahh… wtf it cut off my comment. I said a lot hah but mostly: He’s not dating her because he’s dating me! DUH! Be very jealous. I love Sanjaya, always have, always will! He is the nicest person ever and an amazing singer, not to mention a total hottie. HE’S MINE! =]

#21, you crack me up.

Gay or not I doubt that is his girlfriend. She doesn’t have the slightest interest in Sanjaya in any of these pictures.

Sanjaya show will get better ratings then AI XD Thanks for keeping us updated as you can tell some people here can stop talking about him

[~F a m o u s~] @ 01/21/2008 at 5:45 pm

“I’m not in the recording stages yet,” = I have no fcuking deal, please, someone give me a deal.

“I’m writing music and starting to interview producers” = like um, i cant afford a real producer right now but umm, like, ummm.. i’ll glady pay you Tuesday for a beat today.

lmao like the world needs another donny and marie.

gay straight, whatever hes not hurting you.

im actually happy for him that hes getting recognized. good for him. he’s sweet.

god ick.
he is old news
!!

Sanjaya looks great here. I’m not sure if this is his girlfriend or if she is just a friend or cousin. I’m sure if he wants us to know we will find out in time. I can’t wait to find out what’s going on with his career!

Sophie [loves Sanjaya] @ 01/21/2008 at 6:20 pm

#24 ISN’T MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I swear guys omg I would never say that. Sanjaya is gorgeous

his sis is cute!!

ew! get this off jj!
i hate sanjaya. he lost american idol–suck it up and move on yah, freak!

That Shyamali is beautiful. Too bad he got the lime light when she was prettier and a better singer

so Sanjaya is a lesbian. congratulations on being a rug muncher. you always had a rug munching quality about you whenever you sang on that sh*t show. its the curly locks and faint upper-lip hair and uni-brow that gave you away

That is not his girlfriend. I’m not saying who it is. She is obviously uncomfortable being stalked, and he is acting protective towards her.

He has deals already signed and deals pending. Clearly the paps, gossip sites like this one and TMZ are interested enough in him to take pictures and blog about him merely walking down the street.

umm… that’s how my girlfriends and ***** guy friends hold my arm too. something tells me that they’re not dating…

that’s his *** hag

gross….. sanjaya lacks talent.

His sister is pretty.

LOL. I LOVE YOU JARED, SRSLY.

quote “[Shyamali and I are] Donny and Marie for the next generation!” Ummm… quote

haha. Sanjaya looks the same. can’t wait to see him in “Meet The Spartans.”

Meridethx3 @ 01/21/2008 at 8:19 pm

i totally remember his sister’s audition
and i though she was better than he was..

Is that a real girl or its a girl with a p e n i s?

I read where he got signed by CAA so he’s got a lot of things going on. Shyamali is very pretty.

Isn’t that his cousin? I saw him on an interview last week. His hair is almost hippie length, past his shoulders.

His sister looks pretty,the girlfriend looks scary

He does not have any talent in singing. I still shudder when I think of his performances.

#36 is fooling himself. Sanjaya has no deal and never will have one.

i’m smelling a marco/ellie

i’m smelling a marco/ellie

i think his sister could get into the showbiz. SHe is very pretty. Sanjaya, hahahaha welll….I’ll pass on the comment

I can’t wait to see what Sanjaya does. He was always so adorable and the life of AI. I can honestly say there has never been another performer who can put a smile on the face of my entire family faster than him…in fact, any of us can just say the name “Sanjaya” and it evokes a smile…some happy memory from AI, or the tour or both. He got us through a very difficult time and made us all a little happier when things were glum.He is a very precious person to us with his sweet voice and sweeter smile,and we will always love him. It’s so wonderful to hear about all of the great things that are happening for him now!

a girlfriend? No, Sanjaya has a beard.

Sanjaya is so freaking hawt! All the people that are saying he’s gay wish he was so his fine ass can talk to them lol. Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous. His sister is really pretty as well. They both are talented and beautiful individuals. I can’t stop looking at these pictures. Omg. I don’t blame the girl trying to hide her face from the creepy paparazzi.

ScarJo'sLeftboob'sstuntdouble @ 01/22/2008 at 12:16 am

Lord knows I don’t see it, but the kid has a little bit of… something. Talent? LORD NO! That definitely ain’t it. But, to give him his due, he has some kind of charisma or magnetism about him. He wouldn’t have garnered so much attention, and we wouldn’t still be talking about him if he didn’t. Maybe he’ll find a niche, and be able to make a buck or two down the line in the entertainment industry, somehow or other. Godspeed to him and his career.

girl looks like she wants to kick his ass! I’m sure she could!

forget him, his sister is hot!!

I think it is great that Sanjaya and Amy Winehouse are friends!!! And his Sis is Hot!!!

Sanjaya’s management shall release further details regarding his projects when the timing is appropriate.

kittyonthecatwalk @ 01/22/2008 at 3:48 am

this is how gay people walk with their girl-pals. nothing serious.

come on you teenyboppers in denial. he clearly looks like he has a flaming arsehole. he always looks like he’s just had a romp with a gay butch biker in some alleyway. definitely friends with dorothy, this one. no doubts about it.

that would be one silly show, hope it doesnt go through, he is too much. http://arabaquarius.blogspot.com/

gypsy marie @ 01/22/2008 at 10:47 am

she looks miserable!!

The guy is h-o-t. and should be on tv , in movies or modeling for somebody. He has already proven that he’s an entertainer. He deserves a shot at the stars, especially since from what I’ve seen lately from “stars” he is just as good and better than some.

That girl is his younger cousin,not his girlfriend and he’s not gay you jerks.

Mourningthelossoftalent @ 01/22/2008 at 4:46 pm

Well if the Landers sisters have a record deal (see Dlisted.com), I guess this doesn’t surprise me that much. Music is dead.

sanginahater @ 01/22/2008 at 4:49 pm

They totally just got a mani-pedi and now they’re going back to her place to braid each others hair, gossip about boys, and sing to Barbra Streisand tunes on Kareoke.

A_Red_Vibe_In_Baltimore @ 01/24/2009 at 11:48 am

So what if he is gay? It really doesn’t matter. Get over it people. Why hate on someone because they say someone is gay. It’s not a bad thing to be gay. It’s normal. Stop it with the negative comments about being gay. It’s OK to ask but it’s no big deal either way.

We all watched Sanjaya on the show and gosh he is such a darn man I just love him.

All the way from Trinidad and Tobago

Hey ya’ll you are just a bunch of jealous people give Sanjaya a break

2Madison4maki7 @ 07/21/2009 at 8:51 am

No he is dating Holly Montag after they both got voted off the show I’m a celebity get me out of here…
