Prince Wannabe on WB's Superstar USA

Did anyone catch this past week's episode of the WB American Idol spoof called Superstar USA? There was this guy wearing stiletto heals and an outfit reminiscent of the one Prince wore in the Kiss video. It was painfully embarassing, but funny as hell. The premise of the show is that they are searching for America's worst singers, and the contestants don't know - they think they're on because they are talented. The wannabe performed Destiny's Child's 'Survivor'.

Saw it. I was thinking of making a post about it last night.
The guy(frank, I think) was going for a "britney Spears look" but they basically dressed him up as Prince ala Kiss. He wasn't a fan though. The fact that they showed on the screen before deciding whether or not to move him onto the next round was "thinks Prince is the worst singer in America". lol From what I remember, his favorite singers were Madonna and Britney Spears. lol
Another guy, Omar, was trying to go for a "classy" look and they tried to dress him up as Morris Day(the tag on the suit actually said "Morris Day" on it), in this bright red pimped out suit with hat.

LOL...Yeah, that's him - Frank. I didn't noticed all those details you both mentioned. Do you think the producers are taking a few jabs at Prince and Morris?

Amen to that. I saw the episode and I thought how ironic it was that he thinks Prince sucks yet he's dressed like him from the mid-80's. Deep.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

eye was laughing so hard @ this episode, tears were coming out of my eyes! Especially the makeover part. Most of the people looked exactly the same and some of them looked even worse than they actually had b4! lol
Hershey hug & kisses, xoxo
