Former American Idol finalist Ace Young is currently performing on Broadway at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre in the role of Kinickie in Grease. He began the role last week and is scheduled to be in the production until January 18 of next year.
Ace auditioned for season five American Idol in Denver, wearing a tuque beanie and singing a rendition of Westlife’s “Swear It Again” and was unanimously passed on to the next round.
Judges Paula Abdul and Randy Jackson approved his entry, with Jackson noting that Young was one of the best singers he had seen audition. Simon Cowell disagreed with Abdul and Jackson but also approved Young, with a small “yes”. He was eliminated in the sixth week of the finals.
His self-titled debut album was released on July 15, 2008. Ace teamed up with veteran song writer and producer Desmond Child. He co-wrote seven of the eleven tracks on the album.
