Taylor Hicks took part in Live with Regis and Kelly’s special “Dating with the Stars” week for Valentines day. And, uhm. Yikes?
But you know, the man is promoting his upcoming record The Distance, due to drop March 10. Whatever it takes, I guess.
Below, watch Taylor, interview the 3 ladies picked for the contest. The questions and answers, obviously scripted, are totally lolz-worthy, but in that squirm-in-your-seat embarrassing sort of way.
The brunette on the far right was so eager to appear on the show, she was spamming every Idol board and blog in existence, including this one. I deleted all her posts and then banned her. Heh.
Fun Fact: Randy Jackson was host on Friday, but he didn’t say anything about Idol beyond the whole a-boy-is-gonna-win blah blah blah deal…
After the jump, watch Taylor on his “date” with the blond in the middle, which aired the next day. Not quite as embarrassing. But still. On Monday March 2, Taylor appears on Regis and Kelly again to perform his single, “What’s Right is Right.”
