American Idol, tonight, was chock-full of celebrities and artists but one in particular stood out. It was Celine Dion and Elvis singing together, not just musically but (somehow) physically as well. I know it was some shifty video/computer technology that brought that duet into existence…and though it wasn’t the most ideal of duet partnerships…but it was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. It actually looked halfway genuine and, dare I say, real.

I’m not of a huge fan of Celine Dion (which is hypocritical in one way because if I hear one of her songs on the radio I am destined to at least sing the song in my head…and we all do it so don’t deny it!), but I have to give her credit in this particular performance for not trying to showboat the entire thing like she does so many times. She actually shared the stage with Elvis…or video Elvis…or whatever the hell it was. Precisely, whatever the hell it was, was pretty damn cool.
