A tipster who watches American Idol alerted us to George Ramirez, the bearded, earnest (or is he?), honest American Idol contestant from Tuesday’s show. The show was clearly trying to paint George as an odd nerd who didn’t belong there, but I think everything about George’s audition was embarrassing not to him but to the judges. The world has changed, Simon Cowell. Your bread-and-butter method of humiliation-as-entertainment is becoming obsolete. And deep down, you know it. All hail George Ramirez! May his dreams of marble floors come true:
Just look at the judges faces! If they’re so superior, why is there fear behind their eyes? (Also: Tallahassee represent!) (Thanks to Alexander for the tip.)

I don’t watch American Idol, but the morning after this aired, my bus driver asked if I was on “that show where people sing for judges” last night. I wasn’t.
Frankly, I don’t see the resemblance.
I want to go to him. That’s my boyfriend.
haha. i’ve actually met this dude before! trust me, he is pretty much the most awkward person to ever be around…ever. i met him outside of this place in Tallahassee called All Saints.
This embarrasses me as a science major.
He’s cute. When I was an art student I used to date math/physics majors. The great thing about them is that they’re laid-back because they know what they know, so there’s no reason to pretend for anyone. Rock on, physics boy!
I kept waiting for him to tell Ryan he needed to find his mother at Oxford.
Hee, absolutely. He wants a house with floors! He’s tired of stupid sand!
WIN. WIN. WIN. WIN.
George FTW! definitely.
so he’s awkward. so what? time to break out the weird edit, stat!
If i had a sweet beard like that when i was 18, things would have been different. Life would have been different.
Wow, this guy is fantastic. He is entirely aware of what he is doing, without a doubt, and if that was a contest, the score is: George wins. The judges are dumbfounded.
I love him so much. He’s MY American idol!
george ramirez IS daniel farraday
“I don’t know, simple house, nice floors”
“BAHAHAHA YOU PLEB! SIMPLE HOUSE! HA! THIS IS NOT FOR YOU!”
Wow. Fuck them.
Also forgive me for being incredibly out of the Idol loop, but why are there four douchebags instead of only three?
I think what confused the judges is that he is the only reasonable person to ever audition for American idol.
you’ll see me around
George’s words have so much power, yet the are so, very, soft and cuddly.
In 11 years I’ll be more than happy to share my simple house and marble floors with him.
LOL, “i can live without physics, but I can’t live without _____ ” is definitely going to be used soon.
Lindsay WINS for wee Princess Bride reference.
What does Seacrest love more? Cock or balls.
he will definitely see you on the other side.
he’s just a wittle guy underneath that mighty beard.
WIN
