Torch Report (Q&A with Momjaya!) from 2kids3dogs and Observer99 at dazeoffire:

Now that 2kids is making me look bad, I guess I'll post the questions and answers from the you ask mamajya 1 quick question (within the next 30 minutes!!! -put it in THIS topic) thread. 2kids and I went to the After Pary (after the concert) and met with Sanjaya and Mamajaya. I asked her the questions that were posted in the thread stated above so if you asked a question, it was answered.

1. What does he like in a girl (what qualities)?
Someone who is smart, has a sense of humor, and is spiritually minded. He also likes ALL physical types.

2. What is it like living on a tour bus?
There are 2 buses - girls and boys. They are on the boy bus. It's not bad at all. They are only on the tour bus going from one concert to the next. Once they get to their destination, they check into a hotel, usually around 4am.

3. will he be singng "The way you make me feel " for the entire tour and be wearing the same costume for the entire tour?
Yes, he will sing the same songs all through the tour, and his costumes will stay the same. None of the idols had a choice in the costumes, they were picked by the stylists. There may be minor adjustments to the costume, but expect to be seeing the red pants (denim fabric) throughout the tour. EDIT: I forgot to say that Mamajaya said that most of the idols weren't thrilled by their costumes.

4. Does Sanjaya read our posts and know us by our screen names and will he rub his right ear lobe for us in public, as to say hello and hes thinking of us.
Yes, he reads the posts. No, he doesn't know us by screen name. This is how it works. Mamajays gets online and reads the threads, usually every other day since there's wireless on the bus. If she sees a post she want Sanjaya to read, she calls him over, and he reads it. I told him about rubbing his right ear lobe for his fans as a hello and Mamajaya told him he needs to do it sometimes for his fans. LOL EDIT: I asked Mamajaya if she would blog here approx once a week just to let us know how things are. I mentioned we were all starved for information, and it helps us feel like we're part of the tour. She didn't make a commitment on it, but I suspect she will blog more often. She mentioned she is a very slow typist.

5. Is Sanjaya having a good time and is he being treated well by the other Idols and the AI people?
Yes, both the idols and the AI people treat him well. It is no lie that this group is the closest group out of all 6 seasons. Phil looked out for Sanjaya a lot, and Phil, Sanjaya, and Mamajaya are very close. Mamajaya holds Phil in very high regard.

6. How happy are you all?
They are all very happy and excited about the future. Mamajaya, 2kids, and I talked about Sanajaya's future some. I told her that I was concerned since I hadn't heard anything at all and it seems like we've heard about some of the other idols. She doesn't want to break any rules so I won't go into any details. Yes, he has offers. Hint: triple threat EDIT: We talked about AI while Sanjaya was on, how she really felt about Simon, and some of the other contestants in general - her observations of them. She is one sharp cookie! Very observant!!

7. Do We Online Fanjayas Make Sanjaya Smile?
Yes

8. What is a typical day on your agenda like, now that the tour is underway?
Up at the hotel around 11am - to the venue by 1pm - showtime around 7:15pm - leaves the venue around 11:30pm on to the buses - drive to the next city arriving around 3 or 4am - check in to the hotel & sleep.

9. What is he going to do during those dates with no concert? Back to LA or stay in the city where they are in?
They will stay in the city of the next concert and sleep on the day off. I asked about the 5 day block of days off in August and she said they'll just stay at the city of the next concert and relax. Sanjaya overhead me asking, and didn't realize he will have 5 days off! LOL - he is still a teenager and sooooo adorable - he acted as if Christmas was right around the corner!
