We all know how bad The Idol is, and all about its precariously low ratings. Last Sunday just 133,000 people watched on the HBO main channel.
Now Abel Tesfaye, aka The Weeknd, gives us a preview of Sunday night’s episode. He sings John Lennon’s “Jealous Guy” while his character shaves Lily Rose Depp’s legs in a bathtub. Meanwhile, Mexican housekeepers gossip about him by the pool.
“The Idol” has become peak hate watching, that’s for sure. But even the haters are staying away.
I hope John Lennon’s estate got a nice piece of change for the music license. I’ll bet they regret this now even though it’s a good cover. The Weeknd should stick to making records.
