Blake Lewis - Videos

I am not one to watch paparazzi videos. I really don't agree with what those people do for a living.

Buuuuuuuuuuut...

Here's a huge exception. I was not even going to post it, but then, the man's friend posted it on his own blog, so I guess it's ok for me to post it, too.

Blake Lewis, with his friends Ethan Newberry, Ginger and Amanda, were out somewhere in West Hollywood. Some pap followed them into the parking garage, and Blake and his friends just had a little fun with (and at) him, especially after the guy didn't even know Blake's name!

At least I'll link to the one Ethan posted, so someone else other than the pap gets the hit!



Weren't they funny? :)

Also worth noting - Blake put up a song on his MySpace Page - it's an ode to his MySpace Page. Very funny and clever. Go listen!

He also posted a blog with videos of his pre-American Idol days. Videos he made with his friends. They are great!

Blake Lewis with Flowmotion - Better Luck Next Time

From the Flowmotion website:

09/29/07 Blake Lewis Appearance with Flowmotion

“American Idol” runner-up Blake Lewis put in a late-night appearance at Saturday's show at The JET. Midway through Flowmotion’s 3-hour set, the street-beatboxer-turned-superstar joined the crowded stage for a boxified version of “Better Luck Next Time”, raising the crowd into a frenzy. It was old friends making music together, and a triumphant return for a hometown boy. Before he left the stage Lewis yelled out, “It’s so good to be home!”

They put Blake's performance up as a free download. Very cool of them to offer this to the fans. 14 minutes of Bshorty goodness. Well, ok, about half of that, since Blake shows up midway through the song, but the entire 14 minutes is great. Flowmotion has a great vibe, it is well worth listening to!

The download link is on the right, just under the header, under the Featured Song Downloads header.

Blake has appeared on stage with them last year for Summer Meltdown 2006. Here's a Youtube video of it:

311 talks about Bshorty

This past spring, a whole new group of people got an education in 311 - American Idol fans, via the relatively adventurous musical tastes of Seattle's Blake Lewis. The band was contacted by the show's producers for permission to let Lewis sing its All Mixed Up. Mahoney says they agreed but didn't realize how much mileage they'd get.

"We didn't know (Lewis) was such a big 311 fan. He really kicked a— on All Mixed Up," he says. "After he sang the judges said they didn't know who we were, and he said 'They're my favorite band. They're great.' It was the best publicity ever."

And after that, 311, in turn, became big Blake Lewis fans - "Nick went a couple of times to the tapings of the show and hung out with (Lewis) and made friends with him," Mahoney reports, adding that the diminutive beat-boxer also covered their version of Love Song.

"That was cool too. We were rooting for him. We knew another guy, Brandon (Rogers), who used to sing for Christina Aguilera. He's such a bad-a— singer, but he got voted off early," he says. "Blake brings a little more current, modern hip-hop influence to the show. It's nice how it worked out. He didn't win, but either way, he's going to have a good career. Hopefully we can get him out to one of these shows."
