I heard the news yesterday as early as 12 noon. I actually wished I was home eating ice cream in the middle of the day, lounging away the afternoon sitting on those contemporary sofas you see on the catalogue and watching Lee DeWyze break down as Ryan Seacrest announced him as the new American Idol.
For millions who voted for Lee DeWyze, it was a beautiful day.
Personally, I think the paint sales guy deserves his new crown. It has been a slow rise to the top for Lee. And it was indeed an amazing journey for him. In fact, I am at peace whether Lee or Crystal wins. Both are equally talented and hardworking. Both deserve to own a record.
Looking forward to buying their CD’s. Can’t wait.
