Singer Joel Crouse attends MasterCard #PricelessSurprises Backstage At The GRAMMY'S on January 24, 2014 in Los Angeles.
Yes, you read that right - shoplifting! Joel told Billboard that he wanted to try to shoplifting a copy of his album from a store. Much to his publicist's dismay, he said, "A lot of people have told me not to do this, but now that it's out, I want to try walking out of the store with one -- without paying for it. I'm not saying that I'm for stealing, but if I walk out with the record, the alarm goes off, and they ask me what I'm doing, I just want to see what they would say. It's got my name and picture on it, so it is mine."
He was joking, of course, and he made that clear when he added, "Honestly, it's a blessing, and I am so excited about it -- about the record. Not stealing it."
Be sure to go check Joel out at one of his concerts (and be nice and take a copy of his CD so he'll see it "out there!")
