Iowans spotlighted on national TV

February 8, 2006 By admin

From “American Idol” to the Grammys, several Iowans will likely be spotlighted on national TV tonight (Wednesday). Hit singer Kelly Clarkson was a waitress in Texas before winning the first “Idol” contest in 2002 and Megan Bobo hopes to follow Clarkson to stardom.

Bobo’s a 23-year-old University of Iowa grad from Des Moines who survived three videotaped “Idol” auditions, one of which is expected to air tonight on Fox. Over on C-B-S, tonight’s Grammy Awards will feature Des Moines-based Slipknot, up for Best Metal Performance for this single called “Before I Forget,” while the band, The Killers, featuring Pella native Dave Keuning on guitar, is vying for Best Pop Performance for “Mr. Brightside.”
