The Story Behind Why An “American Idol” Contestant Came Out On The Show

Keith London tells BuzzFeed why he sang Beyoncé’s “If I Were A Boy” without changing the pronouns, his thoughts on the controversial reaction from the judges, and how fans are responding to his decision to come out as gay.



Keith London on American Idol.


Fox


On Wednesday night, 21-year-old aspiring musician Keith London performed Beyoncé’s “If I Were a Boy” during the “Hollywood Week” episode of American Idol. He purposefully did not change the pronouns in the song, which London intended to be a sly way of acknowledging that he's gay.


After London's performance aired on the East Coast, he tweeted, “Wait, did I just basically come out on National TV? Oh well cats out of the bag!”


“It was amazing,” he told BuzzFeed Thursday morning. “Twitter's blowing up. Facebook's blowing up. It's awesome that people are talking about it.”


During the episode, Idol judges Jennifer Lopez and Harry Connick Jr. expressed their confusion over London's song choice and the segment caused some disapproval on Twitter and elsewhere online over the judges' reactions. After London began singing the song, Lopez pointed out to Connick that London wasn't changing the pronouns, and Connick responded, “It don't impress me.” Lopez agreed, adding, “It is bizarre.” Then, Connick said, “It's a weird choice. OK, we get it. You're trying to be cute.”


London said his goal in singing “If I Were a Boy” was quite the opposite of “trying to be cute.” “My view on it is that Beyoncé is thinking that she would know what it's like to be in a man's shoes,” London told BuzzFeed. “And my take on that is that you'll never know what it's like in somebody else's shoes. I come from a very unique background, and no one knows just why I do the things I do.” When asked to elaborate on his unique background, London said, “I travel all over the country doing odd jobs. It's not the stereotypical, you know, lifestyle [for a gay man].”

You Have My Heart Card


You Have My Heart Card

Materials: blank white paper stock card or any other thick paper folded in two, a matchbox, double-sided tape, pastel and neon masking tapes in different patterns, word print-outs in different fonts (YOU/HAVE/MY), pieces of white paper, pieces of colorful paper, flower cut-outs, pink decorative string, toothpick, black pen/paint/crayon, and scissors.

2. Make two holes on both sides of the box and put the string through them. Then wrap the string around the box and make a knot on the other side of the card.

I Love You More Than…


I Love You More Than...


Show them how much you really love them (more than bacon? red wine?) with a foldable paper heart chain, like this one created by Alyssa and Carla.


Materials: a piece of construction paper cut into a 4″ x 4″ square (color doesn't matter– the one shown used green), a long strip of red paper 30″ x 4″ (wrapping the paper on a roll of craft paper works well), a piece of grey construction paper or cardstock, letter stamps and a stamp pad or letter stickers (or if you have amazing hand-writing, just a high-quality pen or marker), decorations for the pictures (pens, markers, stickers, shape punches, stamps, etc.), glue (either a glue stick, rubber cement, or white glue), scissors>


1. Create a heart template with the 4″ x 4″ piece of paper. Fold it in half, like a book. Draw half of a heart onto the paper, with the fold in the center of the heart. Cut out the shape and open it up into a full heart. Trim the edges until you like the resulting heart shape.


2. Keeping the good side of the paper on the inside, fold the long 4″ x 30″ piece of paper in half three times. The end result will be about 4″ x 3.75″.


3. Use the heart you created in step 1 to trace the heart shape onto the paper. You want the left and right edges of the template to hang over the edges of the paper, so the hearts will have a connecting point on either side.


4. Cut the heart out and unfold to reveal the heart chain.


5. Modify the template heart by cutting a half inch around the edge, creating a slightly smaller version of the same heart.


6. Trace this smaller heart onto the thicker piece of paper 8 times. Cut out each heart.


7. Use the letter stamps or stickers to write “I love you more than…” on one cut out heart. Glue it to the first heart in the chain. Write “Happy Valentine’s Day” on another cut out heart and glue it onto the last heart in the chain.


8. Choose 3 things that you want to list to illustrate just how much you love your Valentine. Make it personal! The card shown picked bacon, snow days and red wine. Use stickers, cut out shapes, or draw images that correspond to each of your items on 3 of the cut-out hearts. Use the letter stamps or stickers to write each item that you chose on the remaining 3 cut-out hearts.


9. Glue each of the cut out hearts onto the middle hearts in the chain. When the glue is dry, fold the hearts up accordion-style into a little Valentine’s booklet.



I Will Always Want to Spoon Card


I Will Always Want to Spoon Card


Daria from Kittenhood created this adorable “I Will Always Want to Spoon” Card. Follow her simple directions below.


Materials: printable templates (below), scissors, a small plastic spoon, pink or red nail polish, and strong glue.


1. Paint the front of the spoon with nail polish and let it dry. Apply a second coat and let that one dry too.


2. Print out the “I will always want to” template of your choice on A4 paper. Each file makes two cards. Alternatively, you can handwrite your own. Fold your card in half.


3. Glue the spoon in place to the card and you’re done!
