Last week, you may recall, we gave you the secret to writing lazy pop-culture content. If you're writing about a singer, find a way to work the artist's most famous song into the first sentence. And so we have a story about Chris Isaak replacing Simon Cowell:
See how easy that is? Now you're in the Isaak mood. Here's more:
He would be an understated presence. Isaak is so laidback he is frequently mistaken for Perry Como's ghost after a roofie, but that's part of his relaxed, Southern California charm. He's a great talent and not bad as an actor, either. Certainly the opposite of, oh, Bret Micheals. Speaking of which:
So much for that, then. Sources say they've also considered Harry Connick Jr., who's like Chris Isaak after a few cups of coffee. At least they're both known for smooth crooning. Not in the running: Stevie Nicks, which is too bad; entertainment writers everywhere could say there are "rumours" she's being considered. Then they could knock off for the day. Can't top that. Quit when you're ahead.
