'American Idol' Winner Scotty McCreery Does the 'Harlem Shake' (Video)
The season 10 alum recruits his bandmates and a crowd of 2,000 for his own version of the viral video phenomenon.
American Idol's Scotty McCreery is the latest celebrity to get his “Harlem Shake” on.
The season 10 winner enlisted his bandmates to play along to the DJ Baauer hit, which begins with McCreery skillfully tuning his guitar in an empty venue (Pittsburgh's Stage AE), then breaks into a giant dance party for last 15 seconds of the clip.
