jasoncastrocutdreads One of the all -time cutest – and sweetest – American Idol contestants (back when we CARED) was dreadlocked singer Jason Castro from season seven. Now he’s 26, married to his Texas sweetheart and a father, and according to The Hollywood Reporter, he decided “the day has come” to chop off the dreads. Click HERE for a character- revealing story about him. Luckily, he still has a nice head of hair.

AMERICAN IDOL’S JASON CASTRO IS STILL A SWEETHEART

Jason Castro is still on of our all-time favorite American Idol contestants that didn’t win. Last weekend he and his band played at the San Diego House of Blues with his younger brother Michael as his opening act. While the guys were unloading equipment and beer from the van, Jason took time to be nice to fans. He may be married, but he’s still adorable.

HE’S NICE TO LOOK AT, BUT DON’T OVERLOOK JASON CASTRO’S NEW MUSIC

Perhaps our favorite of all the American Idol contestants is still Texan Jason Castro and it took him awhile, but he’s finally got an album out! He was a fourth place finalist on the seventh season. Dreadlocked Jason is only 22, but he got married to his high school sweetheart Mandy Mayhall on January 2 and credits her as “inspiration” for his music. He’s sweet and well-mannered and his music reflects his laid back personality.

JASON CASTRO IS AS SWEET AS HE LOOKS- EVEN UNDER DIRE CIRCUMSTANCES

American Idol’s Jason Castro put up with a boatload of misery on a grueling airline flight last week and he never cracked a scowl. Journalist Sue Facter happened to be seated a few rows behind Jason on an American Airlines flight from Newark to LA, Tuesday night at 6:30. Flight attendants and passengers were aflutter at the sight of the exhausted Jason and he was “friendly and accommodating.” But he never got to nap. The flight was delayed for hours and finally everyone was sent to hotels. The next day he was bumped to coach and THAT flight made an emergency landing in Chicago for mechanical reasons. Hours later, passengers were complaining loudly as they were herded onto yet another plane. Jason was again bumped to coach and this flight had no pillows, blankets, and ran out of food! Passengers had to share their tiny sandwiches! Through it all, Sue says, Jason remained charismatic and sweet to everyone. It took three planes and 24 hours to get him to LA – and he was still smiling.
