I like Taylor too. He really is very talented!
Aqua, he won American Idol Season 5 (2006), and he just mesmerizes me - when he auditioned, it was like.....OMG WHOA! Who is this guy?!
Right now - this summer - he's on Broadway, doing Grease (as Teen Angel) as their big 'draw', and I understand he's doing just that! Someone who knows what a fan of his I am sent this review from the New York Post(check out the pic) :)
HICKS IGNITES 'GREASE' DESPITE PANS, REVIVAL GETS BOOST FROM 'IDOL'
..."Grease" - which vaulted right over the critics to box office glory. It's playing to sold-out houses and is grossing nearly $800,000 a week.
It got a little lift from the Tonys, but its real draw this summer is "American Idol" winner Taylor Hicks, who's playing Teen Angel.
An insider says Hicks is worth at least $150,000 in extra ticket sales a week.
Whenever Hicks whips out his harmonica, the audience goes nuts.
They're having such a blast that the "Grease" megamix at the end of the show - this is where the critics ran screaming from the theater - now runs 10 minutes, with Hicks singing the title song and then playing it on his harmonica.

Sorry - I get carried away - LOL!
