‘X Factor’ Recap: Josh Krajcik Is The New Susan Boyle (VIDEO)

OK, I had to post this because my best friend drums in Josh’s band, and I’ve known the guy a long time—really nice Ohio boy with a Joe Cocker / Stevie Ray type voice, and I love that he’s playing the game with X Factor to jumpstart his career.

I get why you’re dressed like that. You aren’t fooling me for a second. This is your before, because the after’s gonna be… You are too good. You are way too good.

The funny thing is, Josh really does dress like that. But make no mistake, he knows what he’s doing, and he’s wicked talented.
