I watched "American Idol" for the first time last season -- mostly because it included the Seattle auditions. Unlike you fans, I was paid to do it, because I frankly woudn't have otherwise. So I saw for myself the phenomenon of Sanjaya Malakar that unraveled over the course of the competition and culminated in his long-anticipated elimination.
But who could forget the hair? Who needs the Bardem when we had this?

Now, Sanjaya and his sister, Shyamali, who also auditioned for the show and was frequently seen in the "Idol" audience, are going to be the special guests in a new production, "A Motown Evening," on April 6 at 3 p.m. at the Northshore Performing Arts Center. A cast of special guests including students from the Northshore School District's Student Academy for Success (SAS) Music Project will also perform. Proceeds from this show will benefit the Music Project, which brings professional musicians, such as Bernadette Bascom, into the schools to work with students.
The Northshore Performing Arts Center is at 18125 92nd Ave. N.E. in Bothell, on the edge of the Bothell High School campus.
Tickets are available online through the Northshore Performing Arts Center Foundation or through TicketsWest. Or, charge-by-phone: 800-992-TIXX or stop by the NPACF box office at Mills Music Inc. Bothell store, 10120 Main Street, Bothell, WA.
