Elijah Scarlett
Contestant #34715
Elijah has a deep, deep bass voice. No, really deep. Think of the deepest voice you've ever heard. Elijah's voice is about an octave below that.
When you've got a voice like that, Barry White is clearly a good direction, so Elijah chose My First, My Last, My Everything.
Unfortunately, he didn't sing it very well at all and after he finished singing, the dialogue with Simon went like this:
Simon: Elijah, can I ask you a question?
Elijah: Yes.
Simon: Have you ever seen this show?
Elijah: Yes, I've seen it.
Simon: You've heard this?
Elijah: Yeah.
Simon: All right . . . and you are aware [laughs] what the purpose of the show is?
Elijah: Yeah, I'm aware.
Simon: OK. All right. I just wondered if you turned up on the right show or not. I mean, that was like something out of a horror movie, Elijah.
