Music channel Fuse along with Koch Entertainment have offered American Idol 3 reject William Hung a recording contract and a video production deal.
Famed for his painful renditions of She Bangs, Hung's number of public appearances has been gradually increasing in recent weeks. For example, the offer was made after he belted out his favourite number during the halftime antics of a UC Berkeley men's volleyball game.
The offer consists of a cheque worth $25,000, a record deal with Koch Entertainment, and having his video aired on Fuse.
Fuse's president, Marc Juris, said:
"As the underdog music video network, Fuse instantly identified with William's drive to do his best and 'have no regrets at all.' Every one of us is joyfully guilty of singing our favorite song at the top of our lungs with wild abandon, all the while completely off key and uninhibited. That's what William did and instantly won the hearts of America."
