American Idol - Celine Dion and Elvis duet

[Kalbrecht]

So, I heard that on American Idol there was a Charity Special, and one of the features was Celine Dion singing a duet with Elvis. As in, a walking, singing Elvis. I just watched some of it on YouTube, and wanted to know if anyone saw it live.

So how did they do it? Was it someone dressed up as Elvis? IMDB has it down as a 'hologram', but YouTube is too low-res to be able to see.

And yeah, the duet was bad enough to make me hurl. Put it on mute after a couple of seconds. I love Elvis, but despise Dion. I was curious how they did pulled it off.

From what I read, it was taped days earlier. Basically all the shots where you can clearly see Elvis' face were taken from his '68 comeback special using a technique called rotoscoping. A body double was used for the other Elvis shots. - Best Idol moment ever! :thumbup:
