WASHINGTON – Sen.-elect Scott Brown says he'd like daughter Ayla to have another crack at "American Idol," where judge Simon Cowell once described her performance as robotic and empty.

The fledgling recording artist, a 21-year-old student at Boston College, made it to the show's final 16 singers in 2006.

Her father told ABC's "This Week" that Ayla was so new to it all back then that she had never put on makeup until she did "American Idol." He also says that Cowell's critique, while harsh, was on target.

The Republican lawmaker says having his daughter back as a contestant would be great for the program and would show people there's life after "American Idol."

did someone say robotic?

Guy goes into a bar, there’s Alya Brown.

Alya Brown says, “What will you have?” The guy says, “Martini.” Alya Brown brings back the best martini ever and says to the man, “What’s your IQ?” The guy says, “168”. Alya Brown then proceeds to talk about physics, space exploration and medical technology.

The guy leaves, but he is curious, so he goes back into the bar. Alya Brown says,” What will you have?” The guy says, “Martini”. Again, Alya Brown makes a great martini, gives it to the man and says, “What’s your IQ?” The guy says, “100.” Alya Brown then starts to talk about NASCAR, Budweiser and John Deere tractors.

The guy leaves, but finds it very interesting, so he thinks he will try it one more time. He goes back into the bar. Alya Brown says, “What will you have?” The guy says, “Martini”, and Alya Brown brings him another great martini. Alya Brown then says, “What’s your IQ?” The guy says, “Uh, about 50.” Alya Brown leans in real close and says, “So, you people still happy you voted for Obama?”
