Ruben Studdard offers studio time to General Larry Platt

Add American Idol Ruben Studdard to the long list of Larry Platt devotees. The Season 2 winner tells Idol Tracker that he, like the rest of the country, was so instantly hooked on "Pants on the Ground" that he'd like to offer the General some time in the vocal booth. "He should come to Birmingham, Alabama, and get in the studio,"  Ruben says. "I'll put him on, we'll make a record, call it 'Pants on the Flo!' That song is gonna be a hit! I can't wait to get my first copy!"

Ruben is currently holed up in Birmingham's Creation Station working on his next musical project, and he, along with the 30th anniversary cast of  "Ain't Misbehavin" (he starred as Fats Waller), is also nominated for a Grammy for best musical show album. Which begs the question, will we be seeing any "Pants on the Ground" remixes on next year's Grammy ballot?
