In 2005, Bo Bice competed on American Idol, and he placed second behind Carrie Underwood.
Back then, contestants stayed in the public eye after their season ended. But as time went on, he slowly disappeared from the public eye.
Last year, he appeared on Idol to support the woman who beat him and is now a judge on the show, and to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their season.
However, after that appearance, he went into hiding. Today, he explained why and also shared a photo of what he looks like now, at the age of 50!
1. Out of pain and embarrassment of my broken failing teeth due to years of Crohn’s issues, Stomach Acid eating away at my enamel and Stomach Surgeries changing my palate and septum.
2. Lost 89lbs, so I can move around like I use to on stage and feel better, sharper and stronger from the lighter weight.
3. Cut the hair from tail length to the short haired country boy look again. A lot lighter and I’m saving on shampoo & conditioner.
4. Stopped drinking caffeine. I went from 3 cups of coffee and 5 cokes a day to only water and juiced fruits, vegetables, vitamins.
5. Donated the XL/L clothes and I’m 30/30 Pants, MED Shirts again. Everything fits and looks on spot.
6. Writing and practicing more than I have in years. The faucet is in full flow again and inspiration has returned to well.
7. I’m off of all but 1 of the medication that held me captive for the past 7 years as I worked through the changes, transitions, tribulations and turmoils that come at all of us.
He is also drug and alcohol free, and feeling better than he has felt in a decade. So, he plans to have a comeback in 2027! Good luck to him.
BTW, doesn’t he look like Kenny Loggins?
