Paula Abdul is giving back to a former contestant of American Idol.
Scott MacIntyre a.k.a That Blind Guy, was eliminated almost five weeks ago for paling in comparison to Adam Lambert not getting enough votes. Upon his departure, Abdrool pulled him aside and revealed she had a surprise for him in 9 months a few weeks.
The day finally arrived and someone reminded Abdrool to actually give MacIntyre his very special gift: a guide dog from Guide Dogs of America. The visually impaired Idol alum was invited to an event sponsored by the organization and it was there that he received his new furry friend.
MacIntyre was extremely gracious and Paula stayed awake long to even made a joke or too. “We have to find a dog that really likes loud music.”
MacIntyre won’t receive his helpful guide until after the American Idol Tour.
P.S.- Anyone else think its funny that the blind kid can look right into the camera and she can’t?
