That’s all for Ace

NEW YORK: He sang That’s All. Very fitting. Ace Young became the latest American Idol casualty in April 19’s viewer voting after enduring weeks of speculation that he would soon get the boot.The 25-year-old Denver native’s exit narrowed the Idol wannabes to six. The winner will be named on May 25. Judge Simon Cowell said on April 18’s programme that Young’s rendition of the retro standard was “charming” — though his voice was “a little nasally”. Host Ryan Seacrest offered encouragement nonetheless. “You’ve got a bright future,” he told the crooner, known for his long locks, flashy smile and falsetto. Wednesday’s elimination show featured a performance by guest coach Rod Stewart, who sang the classic The Way You Look Tonight from the first disc in his popular Great American Songbook series.
