This week’s American Idol Ford music video took the Idolettes on a car ride around the world. The whirlwind global tour took the contestants to Japan, Germany, and India.
Of course they had to stop at the Taj Mahal:
Contestant Lee DeWyze dressed the part by wearing a kurta sherwani:
On the making of video on the American Idol website, viewers got a few glimpses of what went on behind the scenes.
Here’s DeWyze on set:

I was going to Tweet you while writing that asking for the proper name! Sherwani. Need to go back and change it. I was basically searching for “Indian Men’s Attire” and trying to figure out rather quickly by watching the show.
So thank you
Hi, TI! I meant to comment on your post re: the sherwani, but then it totally slipped my mind.
I was surprised at how nice the costumes were for that week’s Ford video. Lee could wear his outfit to an Indian wedding and fit right in. And that’s a lot of South Asian props when you consider that they were only shown on air for 10 seconds or so.
