Phillip Phillips, American Idol

[ediddy]

Yea, Phillip won the american idol contest. He is from my hometown, Leesburg, GA. We now have three hometown boys to salute. Buster Posey, San Franciso Giants, Luke Bryan, country music artist and now Phillip Phillips. We were going through some old videos and found one where Luke Byan spent the night at our house with our son when they were about 9 years old. Luke was kind of dorky when he was a kid. You never know what they will be like when the grow up.

I'm not a fan of the show, never watch it, but a couple of years ago, when I found out that Lacey Brown from (my home town) Amarillo was on the show, I watched a couple of episodes with her in it. She didnt win, but she is a winner in my book.

 

She is beautiful, talented, and making a living in pop/country and the gospel music world.

 

I recently discovered Luke Bryans music...one day I was tuning across the XM channels and heard some of his music on 'The Highway', channel 59 I believe. I'm not a country music fan, but his stuff was kinda quirky and funky and yeah, just enough twang and lusty lyrics to make me imagine I wore a straw hat. (will never happen).

 

Have never seen him in video or pictures, so I wouldnt know him if I bumped into him on the street....and thats ok...cuz Im guessing he has a few female fans that are way more interesting anyway.

Nina and I watch American Idol every year. It's very entertaining and interesting to watch how these kids grow and improve and then to see them flourish and become stars later on.

 

This year's show has to have been one of the best. I had a feeling that Phillip would either take it all or be a runner up as he has a very unique style. That Jessica Sanchez is nothing short of amazing! Skylar Laine was also one of my favorites ... how awesome it must have been for her to do a duet with Reba... wow! I'll bet we'll be hearing more of her.

 

Now, if I was a young man, Hollie Cavanagh ... watch out!! oooowwwweeeeeeeeeee!!!

A way to waste time better spent in the garage wrenching on something.
