8 Asians


paulkim-ai.jpgMove over Will, we have a new Asian American Idol now – Saratoga, CA, pool maintenance technician (read: pool boy) Paul Kim!

It kinda bothers me when people think about Asian singers, you think: William Hung. And uh, I’m not hating on William Hung, but, I mean, come on…

I kinda hoped he’d sing “She Bangs”, personally. He’s good though. Pretty damn good. And I really hope he gets some press and shows the American majority that Asian Americans can sing. Not that I’m hating on William Hung or anything…

Watch the YouTube dailymotion video after the jump…

    I think I may have caught a glimpse of him on an American Idol re-run.. thankfully, here in England - William Hung is more of an "internet" thing. I'm not hatin' on him, too. He just brings a very bad image towards me, unfortuantly.
  • Oops, thanks for letting us know that the video wasn't working! Looks like our fearless leader, Ernie "I'm not Barbara Walters", has fixed it.
  • No problem.

    I just watched it and man, he's good.

    Very happy to see and hear Paul Kim. (I was upset when the Filipino guy from last season's top 24 was cut.) Asian males on AI! Woo hoo!

    ps. I love how Paula audibly gasps when he starts singing. Lol. Go 'head Paul, bring some Sexy Back...
  • And Paul Kim just made the cut!
