American Idol Season 10 contestant, Naima Adedapo, best known as Idol’s Cinderella, seems to have a very naughty secret past she might have intentionally omitted when she told her sob story as a Grounds Cleanup professional with two babies and a big dream of becoming a superstar.

Dave Fuhr, who is a former manager of Rickey’s, a closed local strip club in Naima’s hometown of Milwaukee, claims he immediately recognized the Idol hopeful as one of the dancers (aka strippers) when he first saw her on TV.

“I knew she looked familiar.… Then I realized it was probably the same young woman named Naima who danced at Rickey’s for just a couple weeks sometime in 2005,” Dave said.

Another source also recognized Naima. “I knew her as soon as I saw her on Idol, and she’s just as pretty now. I think she danced at Rickey’s to make some extra cash while she was going to college. It wasn’t that risqué — it was topless, but we had to wear pasties!”

Naima, who was eliminated from the competition in last week’s double elimination, is a natural performer and she was always very comfortable on the Idol stage. There is nothing wrong with the stripper profession as long as you set your limits and have well established values.

Reps for Idol declined to comment. I loved Naima. She was definitely not the best singer in the competition, but she brought some funk, soul, fun and entertainment to the stage. Naima had an incredible stage presence. We miss her!
