As I noted before, former AI finalists Brandon Rogers (season six) and Constantine Maroulis (season four) were present at the Atlanta auditions.
I spoke with both of them -- Brandon was there as a correspondent for TV Guide channel, Constantine was there promoting his album and his new role as a spokesperson for Garnier, one of the AI sponsors. He described Sanjaya's hair as "luscious."
What I thought was the weirdest thing about the experience, though, was that they were both just kind of hanging out. Like walking right past contestants and everything.
It's amazing...just recently (months ago for Brandon) these guys were part of what's arguably the biggest show on TV. Now they're walking arounds sans bodyguard. For better or worse, my encounters with them really added a human element to the show. Both of them were really nice, though.
