Don't Let Appearances Fool You
Doug Kiker doesn’t look like your typical American Idol. But that's exactly why you should never judge a book by its cover.
A garbage man by day, Doug has no formal training or experience singing in front of a crowd. That’s when judge Lionel Ritchie encouraged the young man to warm up his vocals before starting his audition.
Even though Doug was a bit confused, host Ryan Seacrest helped show him the ropes. About fifteen minutes later, Doug returned to the stage for his big moment.
Without any musical backing, the singing garbage man belted out the lyrics to ‘Bless The Broken Road’ from country group Rascal Flatts.
From the minute he started singing, everyone could tell that Doug Kiker was a star. Judge Luke Bryan even came from behind the desk to sit at the piano and coach Doug on a few notes.
Their impromptu duet brought tears to fellow judge Katy Perry. All three judges knew that there was something special about this young man.
As everyone gathered around to give the singing garbage man the good news, Katy gave Doug some powerful words of wisdom.
"You just stay who you are and you’re going to go so far.”
