Taylor Hicks visits Julie Courtney's Dad who happens to be a host of The View to the Bay, a San Francisco morning news talk show. (Spenser Christian) Naturally Julie joins them and Regis and Kelly send the show a video from the Dating With the Stars segment aired on their show that put Julie and Taylor together. My thoughts as I watched the show video from the start to the finish, "Oh no, that wasn't awkward..." (click link)
There were more than a few cringe-worthy moments. Obviously nervous, Taylor lip smacks repeatedly and pulls out a stream of scripted sounding cliche's: "Sinking his teeth", "musical tree", "Taylorize it" - vampiric singing monkeys in suits came to mind. Or maybe just singing monkeys.
News out on the record sales for Mr. Hicks' new album, "The Distance" has it with a reported 5,972 in sales in the second week, down 34% from week one which held 8,990 units sold, bringing a total of 14,963.

Personal life???????????? What ever the relationship with CL was at least she kept it on the DL. Have fun or maybe I should say Good Luck, Taylor.
ReplyDeleteSunny, Really felt Taylor was very uncomfortable in that interivew after Julie came out. He just impress me as the type that wants his private life in the media.

JI Julie's stepdad looked uncomfortable too. Wonder if it was Julie's idea to have Hicks come on the show?
ReplyDeleteSunny, Maybe she just showed up, who knows but you are right Spencer did seem uncomfortable also, it just didn't seem anyone was at ease. Maybe I'm reading too much into it, but thats the feeling I got.

I was actually surprised by what I thought was his welcoming body language. He was leaning on her chair, and I honestly couldn't believe he patted her knee!!
ReplyDeleteI did note him wringing his hands however when they went to the R&K taped footage! LOL!
Oh, poor Taylor! Do you think it's the Lyders Syndrome all over again? "I'll stay as close to him as I can 'til I get that promotion!!"
Hee hee...
I too felt that Taylor seemed a little ill at ease once Julie appeared. I wondered if perhaps Julie made a habit of meeting celebrities that appear on her Dad's show. (If it's someone she likes or has an interest in.) I wondered if Taylor was the first she'd met, or if there were others. Do you think that the fact her Dad has a TV show had something to do with her getting on R&K's dating game show in the first place?
ReplyDeletelabelle31, likely she had a hand in getting him on the show and so wanted to be able to pop in. Too with Regis and Kelly promoting their Dating segment she a fit for appearance. Julie is very at ease on television for someone who isn't involved in it on a regular basis.
ReplyDeleteWatched the video again and he (Hicks) is positively squirming when the Dating segment is mentioned.
I thought it was awkward how he greeted her as she was introduced. No smooth operator there. lol

Have any of you guys listened to Julie's music?
ReplyDeleteWhere does she have it up at?
ReplyDeleteYes, I heard her sing there was music on her myspace, she has a very nice voice.

I'm sure Regis and Kelley meant well, but the whole thing was contrived & just plain silly. In person, he's quite handsome and shouldn't have trouble dating. I couldn't find his album, The Distance, when it was first released. Not at WalMart, Target, Borders, anywhere. But now I understand its available. This album may not do as well as anticipated but maybe it can neutralize some of the devastating fallout from the first album (not Taylor's fault).
ReplyDeleteI think Julie and Taylor are cute together and wish them all the happiness in the world.
ReplyDeleteYeah, man, we should all be able to be happy.
ReplyDeleteAnyone know who works at Kipp Summit Academy? Just curious. ;)
