We got this, through back channels:
…I wanted to let you know the results of the first elimination challenge in Last Comic Standing that took place last night.
The competitors were:
Dante
Gina Yashere
Ralph Harris.
Basically it went like this: The producers had the audience and comics film three versions of who the winner was before the show started.
Does that make sense?
So before the show began each comic was announced and filmed as winning the competition, complete with bogus audience results, (i.e. “with 67 percent of the vote the winner is….”)
The reason they did this is so that none of the studio audience would do what I’m about to do right now, which is reveal the winner: Ralph Harris.
They didn’t announce it last night.
There’s no way we can verify this. It was sent to us anonymously. We’re not passing on nuclear secrets here. It’s not a good thing. It’s not a bad thing. It’s just a thing.
