Off to the war zone: Lee Harding.
Harding goes to war11may06
OK, this is not a joke.
Lee Harding, that kid with the spiky coloured hair, is heading to the Middle East to entertain our troops.
The Australian Idoler, who signed with Sony BMG soon after being tossed out of the show last year, and his band are due to fly there next month.
While his pseudo-punk love songs aren't exactly what we thought our soldiers would be into, it seems he will be very much welcomed by authorities over there.
The guys will be put through their paces this weekend with thorough security and military training as a precaution to visiting the war-torn area.
Whether or not Harding's heavy make-up is allowed on military flights is still unclear.
The military briefings have forced Harding to delay his scheduled appearance at the Australian Idol auditions this weekend.
He was due to appear on Saturday but will now make it to Melbourne Park on Sunday or Monday to meet hopefuls.
