We Can't Dig it, Leroy...We Just Can't Dig It

Friday January 28, 2005
Incomprehensible Leroy "Can You Dig It?" Wells had me dying with laughter Tuesday night when he gave one of the most memorable "American Idol" auditions ever. I was convinced that if he didn't have a future in music, he possibly had one in comedy. But sadly, it seems that Leroy may not have much of a future at all. According to police in Mobile, Alabama, Leroy was arrested earlier his month for allegedly shooting a man in the hip following an argument. He watched his "American Idol" audition from jail on Tuesday, and was released on bail Wednesday. Leroy -- whose favorite phrase is "Can you dig it?" -- didn't get a ticket to Hollywood after auditioning --> for Simon, Paula, and Randy but he did have the judges dancing in their seats during his hilarious, high energy performance of Old Dirty Bastard's "Baby I Got Your Money." See his performance at www.leroy-wells.com. Yes...he actually has a fan site!
