"I don't know if you're ready for this -- Hall of Famer Iggy Pop." In what's surely one of the strangest guest performances in this show's history, the shirtless 64-year-old sings Real Wild Child, and the sound cuts out for a few seconds a couple times. Hey, at least he's not rolling broken glass like he used to do. But I gotta say: It's my favorite guest appearance of the year so far. Nice to see that Idol's still willing to pull some surprises out of its hat.

"I've got to cut out carbs after seeing that," Ryan says.
