"J," as she's known on her MySpace page and on YouTube, was seen in her latest YouTube video on the floor, in the dark, in front of her desk, on which sits her computer, on which, while she speaks, flashes a bright red ad for online dating service Fitness Singles:

Hi. This is J. It has been 16 days since I've started my hunger strike. I regret to inform you I went to the doctor the other day and he advised me against continuing this hunger strike. I, for medical reasons, am going to discontinue the strike.

She promised to continue to vote for "Idol" singers other than Sanjaya -- small comfort for those of us expecting to get to watch her waste away to nothing in the name of Fox reality series integrity.

If you joined me in the hunger strike, I strongly encourage you not to continue this as well. It can be very bad for you -- can end badly.

On the bright side, J notes, Matt, her one -- and only -- disciple (though there is a guy who's trying to launch a "Slim Fast for Sanjaya" movement), is ignoring her advice and will continue his hunger strike "so you can follow him on YouTube."

Fitness Singles is, by its own account, the fastest-growing online dating community for sports and fitness enthusiasts. What they're doing advertising on a YouTube posting of a woman who intended to starve herself over a TV show contestant beats us.

"Don't wait!" Fitness Singles urges us. "Search our personals of active singles in your area and post your own profile for FREE!"

But while a search of their "areas" included circus aerials, cricket, orienteering and table tennis, there is no entry under "obsessive television viewing" or starvation. Which would have been so perfect for J.
