Grease and The Shadow Tour opens in Cincinnati
After the frigid temperatures in Chicago, Cincinnati may seem like the tropics to Taylor and the Grease cast. He talked to the local media about his entry into acting and his new music.
"On Jan. 20, he reprises that feat [ice cream entry] when the national tour of 'Grease,' in which the American Idol plays the part of Teen Angel, the spirit that tries to convince Frenchy to finish high school.
"'It was an intense way to start an acting career,' Hicks said. 'But she stays in school every show, so I must be doing OK.'"
