Rumor: We hear General Larry Platt will perform his viral smash, “Pants on the Ground,” during the ninth season finale of American Idol, airing live from Hollywood’s Kodak Theatre this May. Platt, a former civil rights worker, became one of the year’s biggest Internet sensations after performing his original song during Idol 9’s Atlanta auditions, which aired in January. Each year, American Idol wraps up the season with a big finale special that includes performances and appearances from the remaining two finalists, a host of celebs, and former contestants who gained notoriety after appearing on the show.
