A blind young man and a bespectacled Robert Downey Jr. look-alike are my top bets in this year’s American Idol. These two guys caught my attention among the thousands of hopefuls who tried to win the judges’ approval. Not for anything else, I think Scott Macintyre and Danny Gokey definitely have what it takes to get through the finals. Both have the voice, the character and their own personal tragedies that are most likely to turn their lives around in the coming months.
Scott Macintyre is a 23-year-old singer-songwriter from Arizona. He was born almost blind. But that did not stop him from winding up in the Top 36. I won’t even be surprised if he reaches the Top 3. The guy has an incredible talent, and it doesn’t look like he needs sympathy from anyone to get him on top of the race.
Just a month before his American Idol audition, Danny Gokey’s wife passed away. The 28-year-old singer came to audition with his best friend Jamar and wowed the judges with his version of “Kiss From A Rose”. That performance was really amazing. Excellente.
Let’s see how this prediction would end up in May.
