I have no idea whether it&#8217;s going to work or not, but I&#8217;ll put its success and failure on whether we can find a star.\u201d When asked by Oprah why would he move on to another talent show when she is bored with \u201cIdol\u201d, he replied \u201cI actually like doing it, funny enough,&#8221; he said. &#8220;I remember <strong>Fantasia<\/strong> singing <em>&#8216;Summertime<\/em>,&#8217; and for three minutes, I lost myself.
