Taylor Hicks On American Idol

---

From the moment Taylor Hicks walked into the audition room and stood before judges Randy Jackson, Paula Abdul, and Simon Cowell, it was clear that he was not your typical "Idol" hopeful. at 28, Hicks was at the upper edge of the AI age limit, and his locks of prematurely gray hair only helped to accentuate the point. Taylor however came into the audition with many advantages over his fellow Idol hopefuls, not the least being eight years of paying his dues onstage night after night. Still, he had some convincing to do. Cowell in particular was skeptical, not knowing what to make of Taylor's brand of vintage southern soul. Although Simon did not quite get it,  Paula and Randy were able to send him through to Hollywood, and the rest as they say, is history.

The following is a  brief summary of Taylor's journey on American Idol. We also have the weekly voting statistics from dialidol.com, an American Idol results tracking site.
