Elderly Fan Gives 'Idol' Blake Lewis a Thrill

“I finally got my first pair of panties, and they were huge gigantic grandma panties,” he tells MSNBC. “It was awesome. I don't know where they ended up. I think we threw them around on the tour bus that night.

"I love older women," he insisted, "so it was fantastic."
