I know a girl who knows a girl who lives down the street from the newest American Idol!!!… somehow that doesn’t excite you, does it.
So here’s the deal – we’ve ALL had the Fradiani Fever thing going on for a while now because he hails from our shoreline and everything and everyone is all YAY NICK!!! Storefronts have banners, restaurants are having parties, I’m sure drinks will be named after him in the local bars. …. OUR HOMETOWN BOY!!!…as if he’s actually our son or cousin or BFF since nursery school or ex boyfriend who we still get along with just fine. (oh, but don’t we WISH!)
I get it, I do. I think he’s really talented and a very nice young man and wow, what a thing to happen to someone. The irony? Just six months ago he was walking through town like the rest of us, just a regular Joe. Now? The girls scream when they see him. My daughter works on the green where he held a hometown concert last week. You may have seen it on TV if you follow AI. He was arriving at four with a parade and then the concert. I had to drive her in to work because employees were already told there would be nowhere to park. I saw the lines forming at noon. WOW.
26 years ago we were married in a church on this beautiful historic green. What an awesome place to kick off his new life with his hometown crowd…….
Wishing you the best of luck, Nick Fradiani! Gee, your parents sure look familiar.. I think we shop the same days at the Big Y. Maybe we’re cousins! 🙂
