State Sen Scott Brown (R-Ma.) Dad of American Idol Finalist
Edited on Thu Feb-23-06 10:35 AM by npincus
http://www.scottbrown.com/


Sen. Brown & Gov. Mitt Romney


Daughter Ayla Brown


Alright, I watch "American Idol" (go, Taylor Hicks, go!) and was interested to learn that the dad of Idol Finalist Ayla Brown is a MA State Senator (Republican). Does anyone here live in his district?

State Senator Scott Brown represents the Norfolk , Bristol , and Middlesex District, in the Massachusetts State Senate. Senator Brown was elected to the Massachusetts State Senate in a special election on March 2, 2004, and was re-elected on November 2, 2004.

Previously, Senator Brown served three terms in the Massachusetts House of Representatives from the 9th Norfolk District. Prior to his election to the House in 1998, Brown served as a Wrentham Selectman for three years and a Town Assessor for three years before that.

2. one of 6 republicans in the MA senate!
Edited on Thu Feb-23-06 10:38 AM by Bill McBlueState
Of the 40 state senators in Massachusetts, this guy is one of six Republicans. It was just odd to see a Massachusetts legislator smiling next to Mittens, since most of them can't stand the guy.

It *is* suspicious that they're both so orange, given the weather here.

3. Taylor Hicks or Ace Young-yowza! I'm a watcher also!
THis is the talented lady who also plays basketball. She's okay, but I have my doubts about her
making it all the way.
Did I mention Taylor Hicks and Ace Young? :evilgrin: And who the hell names their kid Ace?

7. Wooo- hoo, Soul Patrol!
http://www.lasersedgecd.com/hicks_taylor.html



I just bought his CD "Under The Radar"... I listened to a few tracks, I really, really like the guy and his music.

Ace is easy on the eyes (he looks like a more-handsome Kevin Federline) but I don't think he has the best voice of the very talented lot.

BTW, I've been an Idol-Watcher from the first season... and was rooting for Kelly Clarkson from the auditions. My husband just tolerates it.

12. I too have watched for quite awhile. My husband does also,
because we both like to critique the performances.:rofl: I had no clue Taylor has a CD; wouldn't that make him a professional?
And yes, Ace is VERY easy on the eyes; memorable! :thumbsup:

34. Taylor Hicks is from my town!
He's adorable! Even that horrid Simon couldn't help smiling at him last night!

This is the third time there's been a finalist from the Birmingham area. Reuben Studdard was the winner one year (my son's trombone teacher plays in his band). Bo Bice from last year lived just down the road in the next little village. And now, Taylor Hicks!

I love his quirky body movements! He's so strange, and fun to watch!

:D

are from my state. That's right, the next American Idol will probably be another North Carolinian!

39. Ace, Yum. 'Nuff said.
Ayla is ok, but not on my top five list of the females.

Taylor is cool.

5. They found a MA Repub?
Wow! That usually requires an expedition to be outfitted, sled dogs found and groomed and special detection equipment deployed. Geez, American Idol actually bagged one eh? Good for them. (BTW, MA's elected officials are 87% Democratic.)

6. Well I'll be damned. I KNEW he was a repuke when I saw him on AI!
I KNEW IT! He had a Romney-esque aura about him PLUS his darling little daughter just seemed a little too "privileged" to be a Democrat's daughter. She has an OK voice, but that 16 year old little lady on the show (can't remember her name)...BLOWS AYLA OUTTA THE CONTEST!

8. I knew it too -- his hair
Plus, I have excellent gaydar, and I get a gay vibe off Ayla -- I don't care how fem-glam they make her...

can sleep with. I have Ashley Judd, Kate Winslet, and Angelina Jolie on mine.

9.  which one?

Lisa Tucker



Paris Bennett

If Taylor Hicks doesn't win, I'm rooting for Paris! Her audition (a Billie Holiday song) blew me away. Love her voice, and she's got great stage presence.

13. LISA! OMG...she's only 16 years old! Paris was AWESOME too though.
Isn't Paris' aunt a famous singer? They're both cute as hell, aren't they? and have voices that ROCK!

Lisa is so poised and elegant for a 16 year old. Which one is Taylor Hicks? I'm REALLY bad with remembering names. Can you tell?:7

31. LOL! Don't feel bad.
Last year I voted for the young man from Louisiana whose dad had told him he'd never amount to anything, he was useless, ect.... I voted for the guy every week. I HAD TO! :)

40. You mean Paris?
She is so cute. Randy needs to back off on his idolization of her granny though. It's liable to hurt her chances if he keeps on.

21. Wasn't GWAR auditioning for AI this season?
Saw a snippet of them in front of the judges - or was that a bunch of GWAR impersonators?

BEEFCAKE!

You'd have a better chance of a response by posting this in the Massachusetts forum.
