This Idol contestant is blind. Now watch starting at the 3:25 mark in this video. You can watch the rest if you're that bored.
So that I can go on with my day like normal, I'm going to assume Ryan was just testing him. You know, to make sure he really can't see anything. You'd be surprised how many people fake their blindness to get on American Idol, so they can get sympathy all the way to the top without anyone ever finding out. Like Kelly Clarkson for example? Blind. Clay Aiken? Gay and blind. Fantasia? Ok, just a welfare whore but she might need glasses.
