Lots of area people tuned into the sixth season premier of “Nashville Star” Monday night on NBC loooking for a local favorite. But he was not there.

Local country singer Kelton French was on of many that sang in the American Idol style country competition. But he did not make the “Nashville Star” top 12.

While he officially calls Milton home, he’s a familiar face around Molino.

His brothers attend Molino Park Elementary School. Joshua French will be in the second grade this fall, and Jordan French will in the fourth grade.

Kelton performed at Molino Park’s Arts Day back in April to the screams and cheers of hundreds of Molino Park students.

The winner will get a contract with a major record company and will get to perform during the 2008 Summer Olympic Games in Beijing in August.
