Things got tense on American Idol last night between judge Harry Connick Jr. and contestant Quentin Alexander.
Quentin, who performed Lenny Kravitz’s “Are You Gonna Go My Way,” voiced his displeasure at Joey Cook and Rayvon Owen being in danger of elimination, calling it “wack.” “This sucks,” he told Ryan Seacrest pointing to the stage with Joey and Rayvon in the danger seats. “We have two of the best vocalists, my best friend is sitting over there. This whole thing is wack, but I’m going to shut up right now.”
Harry responded to the upset contestant during the show. “Quentin, if it’s that wack, then you can always go home because Idol is paying a lot of money to give you this experience and for you to say that to this hand that is feeding you right now, I think is highly disrespectful,” Harry said, thinking he meant the whole competition.
