Milwaukee's Best -- Taylor's Mystery Lady Revealed!

So who was that bikini blonde cavorting in the Hawaiian sand with Season 5 "Idol" winner Taylor Hicks? If you live in Milwaukee, you know spritely Caroline Lyders as the morning anchor for WISN TV.

According to OnMilwaukee.com, Lyders says she and Hicks are "friends," but won't say anymore. Friends with benefits?!

If the pics are any indication, it looks like Lyders is on more than just soul patrol!

211. What does hearts metlurrgy mean? Taylor is not well educated, he came from a broken home, he had few friends growing up (he said that himself), he practiced looking like Ray Charles in front of the mirror (I half expect him to paint himself dark and pretend to be blind). There is something immoral about the way he lies to his biggest fans by pretending to care about them. He hates them. His CD has disappeared almost completely. The woman on the beach was just using him to make her boyfriend jealous. The lyrics you quote that he wrote are absolutely terrible. A ghostwriter wrote ALL his book, with Taylor chatting with him, and the ghostwriter had to remove all the "you knows" of course. This man is despicable. He bites his fingernails down to the bloody quick. He had a boyfriend named Bill even though he tried to make it look like he was interested in the woman on the beach. Bill dumped him, and who could blame him. Taylor Hicks is a sad, pathetic nobody. Still, it's fun to watch his deluded fans try to keep the delusion going. His CD was down in the 400's on Amazon today. I checked all the Idols just to see. Bye bye for now.

212. I saw pictures of Bill and Taylor in the sun. Bill was lounging and smiling and Taylor was like streching REALLY closeby.

Bill broke Taylors heart? Taylor probably deserved it, I hear hes somewhat of a diva. I imagine its been hard for him now that hes not the idol anymore. Broke buying all that beer on his bus.

I imagine hes taken to drinking which is what he was when he wrote hearts metlurrgy... fell and hit his head and thats where that little piece of heaven in a song came from..

Of course thats the way I have to be to hear his songs, drunk and hit over the head, especially his crude early stuff.

SO if Taylors free now, I'll take him, gay? don't care. hates me? he wouldn't be the first man,
if hes up for fawning delusional middle aged, gullible brunettes HEY he's rich right? Or does he have to give all that money to his ghost writers and Clive and attorneys to cover more sordid stuff up?
I hope Bill saved up or didn't sign a pre nup.

So Taylor looks old, theres always hair dye and when he passes out drunk.. right? Ring me up if you hear anything. I'll take him if the blonde and Bill are through with him... Shoot I'd take Bill. Whatever let me know.

213. Are Y'all done now? Done ragging on this nice, talented, polite guy and his friends and family? On his character and his intellect? On his choice of dates and the fact he even takes some time off after a whole year of giving 1000% making up for 10 years of hard work and no recognition for it.
Then when he gets it this is what it is?

Are y'all done yet? Ought to be ashamed of yourselves. His music and writing is beautiful. He may have grey hair, but he has a very young face.

He lost all that weight, inspired people and charitys like Taylors Angels, and KIDONE in Alabama he has given so much.

Everybody that meets him says they absolutely love his sweet spirit.

Y'all done yet? I am inspired to leave here. I could't believe what I heard some had written here.

I would be proud to know him, and if I did and he likes this girl? I would be proud to know her too. I sure would love half her looks and professionalism and that body my goodness.

I can't believe you took to attacking this guys friends and family.
Even in jest. Is nothing sacred?

I know I'm done here.

214. Give the man a break people!!!!

So he was out with a cute blonde - what's the big deal? The man is entitled to a life, and being an entertainer and doing road trips just makes it harder. Then you have to deal with the people who are hangers-on just because you're "somebody" and the moronic assholes (like many of the posters here) who just want to cut you down because you're not their type of entertainer or don't live up to their standard of attractiveness.

I've been there - done that, and live very happily with my talented, very average looking, and wonderful husband.

Taylor rocks!

215. Taylor Hicks is the All Time American Idol. The show sucked this year because he spoiled us last year. I am so glad he found a nice lady to spend his time with. He has worked so hard touring and singing and he has devoted so much time ot his fans. He is a good person as well as HOT and Handsome!!! He's one of People's Most Eligible Bachelors!!
LOVE U TAY!!!

216. Taylor is very well educated. he only had about a month left at Auburn University and he would have a degree in business. He says he is going back for that. He quit originally to persue his music. He is without a doupt the most educated IDOL of them all.

218. I'll never understand why people are so judgmental and mean. How sad your lives must be to have to cut down and criticize someone you have never met.

.... and I'm not a fat housewife.. I'm young, slender, run marathons , and enjoy Taylor Hicks music. .

219. I am a big fan of Taylor Hicks. I would be very happy for him if she didn't use Taylor Hicks to play the CHEATING GAME. She cheated on her boyfriend. I can't believe Taylor Hicks being a really great guy would have anything to do with someone like her. she just wants publisity.
Hope he dosn't continue on with this when he could have some that really cares about him. I sure there are nice girls that he could really trust. YOUR BIG FAN LISA

221. Well, they were together this afternoon (I saw them at lunch today 8/13) at Sauce Milwaukee (3rd ward). He and Caroline sat down around 11:25 and she was drinking a cosmo, while he looked to be drinking a lemonade, wearing his "Got Soul" shirt and a baseball cap.
