American Idol Contestants 'Haven't Heard Of The Beatles' | News @ Ultimate-Guitar.Com

One of this season’s episodes will feature contestants performing the hits of the Fab Four in Las Vegas, something that a number of the would be pop-stars found more of a challenge than others: “They went to perform Beatles songs, about 60-something [of them]. A handful of them, I asked, ‘What do you think about the songs?’ and they said, ‘I’ve never heard a Beatles song before in my life!’”

There's more to the article, I just didn't feel like quoting it all. But..how can somebody have never listened to The Beatles? They're like the most famous band of all time...even if you've never sat down and listened to them, there's still the radio.
