Scott MacIntyre – American Idol Extra Interview

You got these up early, MJ. Thanks.

Unfortunately, I can’t get these at work. Have to wait until I get home from work to view them.

Sad to see Scott leave. He is a class act. And he has already accomplished quite a lot before Idol, as these 2 links show.

Love ya Scotty!!

Uhh, Jillian, video games are typically lost on blind people. They just don’t translate well to Braille.

Scott is a classy guy and although not the best singer/musician on the show, I’m glad he was there. It was a barrier that needed to be broken and Scott did it so well. Somewhere out there is a kid with some challenge that was inspired by this young man.

Had no idea of his full range of accomplishments! A Fulbright at such a young age. Amazing!

In addition to counting, Kara seems to also have trouble speaking in complete sentences.

:laugh_tb:

Thanks for posting those videos, MJ. Does anyone know where we can see Ace interview Kellie Pickler? Did that make it onto video somewhere?

I am impressed with Scott too. He’s obviously very mature for his age and to have started college at fourteen – wow! I don’t know what his career goals are, but I wish him much success.

Video games Jillian? Scott handled that so well. I was fascinated with Scott talking about how sounds are so real to him. I think he would be so interesting to sit down and talk with. He does tend to go on and on a bit, but he’s had an interesting life so far.

I just have to say that watching this makes me realize how much Jillian is all about ‘looks’. Having said that, sight is certainly something I take for granted.

Classy Scott makes me smile.

I enjoy these Idol Extra videos so much. This one was especially nice. I had no idea of Scott’s accomplishments to date. I just might buy a CD of his as a gesture of support. Quite a back story for such a young man.

Scott is so sweet. That was the first time I cried this season, lolzs. I guess it was the girl in me. Scott’s elimination was bound to happen but for some reason I kind of wanted him to stay. He has a way better personality than a lot of the contestants left but yeah his vocals weren’t great. I wish it was Lil going so the judges would of used the save, lol. That would of been fun. They will probably use it next week. Anyway I was really starting to like Scott. He has accomplished a lot for being so young.

Finally got to watch the video.

I’m sure I’m Scott’s biggest fan here at MJ’s. I just love his cool, classical/easy listening style. I was so upset last night. But watching these videos today…well I’m smiling. This isn’t the end, this is the beginning.

JudyOhio, he’s released several CDs before Idol. However (as of last week), you can’t get buy any of his solo material. Maybe the ban will be lifted since he’s now off. I’m hoping.

He was a part-time member of a (believe it or not) punk rock group called “The Glutes,” headed by his brother, Todd. He played electric guitar. That’s why I wasn’t surprised to see him bring it out Tuesday night. Their EP, “Ripped,” is on iTunes. (Just make sure you go through MJ’s to get there.)

Once again, MJ, thanks for the videos, both from Extra and from the FOX morning news shows. I’m looking forward to more of the Scott MacIntyre Media Tour.

I loved hearing about his accomplishments. The other contestants seem to truly admire him and I enjoyed their comments. I think he’s going to be successful at whatever he chooses to do and I wish him the best.
