American Idol’s Michael Johns Loves Whynatte
  • Here at Whynatte, we’ll use any possible excuse to dial into a pop culture television show. I once spent 4 hours dialing in for that little fellow with the spikey hair on So You Think You Can Dance. What was his name? Keith? Clay? Oh well, I can’t remember.

    Well, this time we don’t need an excuse.

    Friend of Whynatte, Michael Johns, just auditioned on American Idol (San Diego), and picked himself up a ticket to go to Hollywood. No telling how far he’ll make it, but the kid can sing a sweeter song than a thick-billed Raven, and he just made it past the first round of auditions.

    Said Simon, “I thought that was a very good audition Michael. You’re like a white soul singer.”
    Said Randy, “100,000,000% Yes.”
    Said Me, “I like eels.”

    Here is Michael Johns, rocking a Whynatte shirt, hanging out with a fellow pal in Australia (Michael’s Motherland):

    Wasn’t his name Michael Lee on the show?

  • Nevermind, I have something mixed up.

  • His name is actually Bruce Svetlanika, but he shares a striking resemblance to Michael Lee Johns.

  • American idol is pretty cool, but you haven’t made it as a musical artist until youve been featured on AM1690.

  • The host of the afternoon show on AM1690 is a pretty big deal. Rumor has it that he posts on Whynatte from time to time. If only I could get a photo of him drinking a Whynatte on the site.

  • It’s likely…but all the more likely if whynatte pres would run a beta test on Gnu & Jackyl stuffed animal mascots

  • Hey, how ya’ going?

    I’m actually related to him (great Uncle or something?)..it’s a long story and I’ve never met him!

    Real name is/was Michael Lee. Veeery close relation to a famous mechanical minded guy, ‘Bill Lee’ of Perth, West Oz.

    Considering I’ve never met him…I like his voice. Good luck to him!

  • Paul,

    Doing very well, thanks for asking.

    Mike is a stand up guy, and he’ll probably be riding around in a one man personal autogyro by the time that you get around to meeting him. In other words, he’s going places.

    Yeah, it’s true, Michael Lee is his given name. I suppose that he’s going by Michael Johns these days. We’ll just call him Lance, and get on with it.

    Glad you found us here at Whynatte. Hope you have a great day, and good luck to you as well. I see great things in your future.

  • HE”S AN OLD FRIEND OF MINE!!! GO MICHAEL LEE!!!! Everyone MUST vote!!! LOVE YOU MICHAEL!!!!

  • Look at you Jules, now that he’s all famous you’re pretending that you know him. Shame on you.
