Lily, Rose, Daisy, and Honeysuckle, the Fabulous Spider Lilies, had gotten to the finals on “American Idol,” only to be knocked out of the running by a guy that sang “Unchained Melody” while juggling three turtles and tap dancing. “Cheap parlor tricks,” said the girls, as Simon and the crew sent them packing . . .
The boys were getting ready for spring mating, practicing their love songs and hoping for the best. Jim and LeRoy (center) were going to try a duet–the Everly Brothers’ Unchained Melody; Thom (left) was practicing his Tom Jones version of What’s New Pussy Cat? ; and Izzy (right) was going to try something different– Japanese Haiku–hoping the cosmopolitan, intellectual, brainy approach might attract a better class of mate. . .
