The folks at TMZ were super-confused when they found American Idol 10 alum, Casey Abrams, playing guitar by the side of road with a giant stuffed gorilla. They wondered why the American Idol 10 alum had turned into a “dirty, singing, hippie person” and thought maybe Casey was pulling a stunt in an attempt to promote something.

Watch TMZ’s video of Casey singing by the side of the road with a giant stuffed gorilla.
