This is the perfect story to show that no matter what path you are on in life it can suddenly take a giant pivot at any time when you least expect it.
This plumber named Kev Crane was working on a job fitting a bathroom in a house. While he was working each day he would sing along to the radio. He naturally has a really good voice. By chance, the owner of the house he was working in also own a RECORD LABEL! After hearing him sing the record label owner decided to sign him to a deal and make an album.
He’s working on songs now to come out the rest of the year. The funniest part is he kept working on finishing the bathroom project even while recording in the studio which was also in the house.
Good luck Kev!
Here’s the video of him singing:
Anna did some research on Nick Fradiani’s net worth and Nick said what you find is not at all what it seems, but he did get a sweet car from American Idol! So, we asked you about your biggest “win” and some of these stories made us downright jealous!

Here’s an animal rescue story that you don’t hear about every day. We have a lot of deer in the northeast but you usually you see them while driving on The Merritt, 95, or in your backyard… but in the water?!
That’s what this 19-year-old Fairfield prep grad came across recently. Eryk Wenziak works for a Norwalk and Stamford charter boat service. He was on a fishing trip with some others when they came across a struggling deer in the water off the coast of Rye, New York. They drove the boat over to the animal and were able to bring it up on the boat, then back to safety in the woods on the mainland. Thankfully the deer seemed okay.
The whole rescue was caught on video. You watch it along with Eryk’s interview with News 12 here

You might have seen this one trending over the weekend after a McDonald’s manager in Canada did a TV interview.
The interview was about how he won an award for guiding his store through the COVID-19 pandemic and tips and tricks for saving money when ordering. Then it quickly turned to much more interesting convo like what is Grimace?! You know the big purple guy. Is he an animal? A character? A person? Food?
The manager, Brian Bates, said Grimace is actually a taste bud. A fairly large taste bud, but that’s what he is supposed to be. Weird!
Now, there have been conflicting theories over the years that Grimace is actually a big milkshake drop, but I’m going with the taste bud theory. He looks way more like a taste bud to me.
