Did I see someone singing Banana Man on American Idol?

Useless Info
Yes! During the auditions of Season 8 of American Idol, Vaughn English of Prairie Village, KS hopped on the audition block weilding a banana and wearing a yellow and orange suit to sing Tally Hall’s Banana Man.
The judges were confused and amused but quickly discarded Mr. English and moved on to the next audition.

I love that guy. I didn’t even know it was a real song and it got me into Tally Hall. I wonder where he is now? Thank you Vaughn!! Still watching his video in 2024. :))
