He was basically booed off stage. He had to struggle with the fact that he came from very humble beginnings and didn't have opportunities to have others experience his talent."
Priscilla, who joined Lisa Marie and the contestants for lunch, said of Idol: "I think it's a great thing. I love the fact that these are people from all over the United States who probably would never have had the opportunity to be in this position."
