AMERICAN IDOL never fails to draw juicy gossip, and this time it’s a Bikini boy who appeared on the Denver auditions wearing a bikini, forcing shocked judges – including Victoria Beckham to walk out. But some fans are of view that he deserved a chance. Seriously!
Ty Hemmerling, a male contestant who perhaps thought dressing up in a skimpy string-top two-piece would be lovely, left judges numb and shocked. The 25 year old bikini model came in dressed like Bikini Girl from last year. He started singing Achey Breaky Heart, and the judges left the show, which he called rude. He wanted it confirmed they're coming back and was caught scratching his ass while he waited.
The whole Bikini act had worked for the "bikini girl" last year, but for Hemmerling, it was a clear thumb’s down by the judges. They were already skeptical — on the level where their initial reactions had to be bleeped out — when Hemmerling walked in wearing the bikini, which nicely showed off the tattoo on his upper back. The judging panel staged a mass walkout, leaving Hemmerling and the camera man all alone in the audition room. Hemmerling’s hip swaying dance was something that really proved to the last straw. Judge Kara exclaimed, "Not a good look" and the next second she was seen fleeing the scene. Amongst other contestants Kenny Everett, 24, a college Student, Durham, SC, claims to be the world's best singer and considers himself the male Mary J Blige. Whenever they make comparisons like that to another known singer, it's not good. He sings in the park and feels it's a public service, bringing people together. Mark Labriola, 28, a computer consultant, Aurora, CO says he hears about once a day that he looks like Jack Black. And he does, in a sense that he's stoked and feels it's his day. He feels the most interesting thing about him is that he likes cheese. Singing Tempted by Squeeze, Mark is raw, but he has something there that's interesting.
