Doug Kiker is the garbage man who auditioned for the American Idol in 2020. With no training and experience whatsoever, he came in the show to prove to his two-year-old daughter that “If you put your mind to it, there’s nothing u can’t do.”

The answer to why judge Lionel Richie reflected on, as he implored Doug to warm up his voice before the audition.

After a minor warm-up for 15 minutes, the judges were completely stupefied as he began to sang Rascal Flatts’ Broken Road. A voice so strong and suited for country music, he quickly gained the hearts of a million all around the world.

With all the raw potential hidden inside him, the judges were intrigued by what the man could do with his voice. The set got emotional as Katy called Doug and said, “That wasn’t garbage. That was greatness”

Doug Kiker Wiki, Age, Height

Doug Kiker was 27 years old when he first auditioned for American Idol in 2020. Also, he grew up in a small town called Greensboro in Alabama and worked mostly on a garbage truck for Advanced Disposal.

He attended Greensboro High School West and at the age of 17, he decided to move to Mobile, away from his parents.

Doug always loved to sing but never had a chance for proper training as he was busy helping his family. The only place he got a chance to perform was at the back of his garbage truck.

“He told me to warm up real quick. I didn’t even sing. I don’t know what I’m doing. How am I going to warm up?”, Doug abashed humorously in front of Ryan. The vocal warm-up from Ryan Seacrest was the first lesson he ever got.

He stood a little shorter than Lionel as they hugged and shook hands. Perspectively, one could conclude that Doug Kiker is about the height of 5 feet 8 inches (172.72 cm).
