I was very proud to be one of the few who had not been sucked into the opiate of the masses better known as American Idol. That was until one night on a break from helping Tommy set up a sound studio we channel surfed to it while shoving food into our mouths. Instantly we were indoctrinated into the train wreck that is the audition process. That was season 5 and it was Chris Daughtry who hooked me.
It's now season 7, and I am part of an email circle that critiques the performances every week. There are five of us, one of which is a very close friend of mine who, during the week of the top 20 declared, "We are all so gay. If we all lived in the same city, we would be having Idol parties. We SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO GAY! I just called you gay."
This is hilarious because he is gay. So, it must be true. I asked him later if there was a card I could have that said Tally Briggs - AI GAY.
