Senator Scott Brown Wants Daughter Ayla To Get Second Chance On “American Idol”

Massachusetts Sen.-elect Scott Brown is putting his new-found fame to good use — the Republican lawmaker wants his oldest daughter back on reality TV. On Sunday, Brown told ABC’s This Week that he’d like his daughter Ayla to get another chance on the FOX talent show American Idol, where judge Simon Cowell once described her performance as robotic and empty.

Ayla, a 21-year-old student at Boston College, made it to the show’s Final 16 in 2006.

Brown says Ayla has grown immensely as an artist in the years since her appearance on Idol and argues that having his daughter back as a contestant would be a wonderful way to show other aspiring singers that there’s life after American Idol.
