American Idol 11 Top 6 - TMZ Visit - Video

Now that American Idol is down to the Top 6, it is time for them to get a little "media training" from the pros at TMZ. In an incredibly awkward interview, the remaining contestants sat down with Harvey Levin and his crew to talk about the paparazzi and how to deal with them.

In the following clip, Harvey (and his sidekick) drill the Idols about exactly how to deal with the flashing cameras and the buzzing media reporters. The segment begins at around the 36:27 mark. This filmed segment will air during Idol this coming week. Sharks teaching about sharks. OK, then.

Take a look:

What do you guys think? Is "media training" really that important?
