A contestant on “American Idol” was in jail in Mobile, Alabama when his bizarre audition aired on Tuesday night.

Leroy Wells, 22, who stormed into the New Orleans audition room “crunked” out and repeatedly ranting “Can you dig it?,” was arrested January 5 on charges of assault and firing a weapon.

Well, it isn’t UNEASYsilence without the video of the audition!

As if the firearms charge was not enough, jail records show he’s also awaiting trial on drug charges and has pleaded guilty to marijuana possession in 2004 and disorderly conduct in June 2003.
