Okay, So I know this is entirely off-Topic. Hence why I am posting on the off topic board. Does any-one remember Billy Gilman? Was any-one else madly in love with him, and planned on marrying him? I sure was. I wonder what he has been up to lately.

That's so funny you brought this up, I was watching Nashville Star last night, and I thought one of the contestants kind of looked like Billy Gilman.


I killed the boss, you don't think they're gonna fire me over a thing like that!!!!

He's 20 now. Must be hard to score your biggest hit at 12.

His big hit was a Columbine-era song with a quasi-spiritual element. "One Voice" I believe was the name. It was surprisingly moving and effective, with a very strong vocal performance and a catchy 'hook.' I remember it clearly -- about a boy throwing a gun in the river at the end. He sang it everywhere, but I recall seeing him on Rosie O's show -- the song certainly spoke (simplistically if on target) to one of her concerns. It was just an effective pop melody -- the lyric not as heavyhanded as it sounds.

Doesn't he co-host the Jerry Lewis telethon? ..... ok that sounds like I'm kidding but I'm serious. I think he co-hosts the telethon.

One his own Web site, the appearances stop at 2007, and the most recent ones are at fan fairs, casinos and Wal-Mart. Not a good sign!

That grotesquely phallic "Snake Song" couldn't have helped matters.

I saw him in a PSA recently (like last month). He still looks really cute. He's no Charlotte Church.

I like the version of "Ben" (yeah, the Michael Jackson song) that Gilman sang when he was a kid. You can find the video at YouKnowWhere.

A couple of years ago while at the dentist's office, I read an article about him in a christian magazine and it said that he had a bit of a hard time when his voice was getting deeper.

The oversaturation of him was getting old then. All he needed was a crappy Disney series to make his suckage complete.
