Paging Dr. House

Idolator noticed that Idol Gives Back gave a lot of screentime to other networks’ stars, but they didn’t mention that Fox missed out on a chance to promote one of their biggest stars, who happens to be on a show that runs adjacent to American Idol. That’s right, Hugh Laurie is the usual keyboardist for Band From TV, but he was notably missing from their performance of “Before He Cheats.” Sure, Jesse Spencer was prominently featured on electric fiddle, but Jesse Spencer is hardly a big name… he’s barely getting two minutes per episode on House this season.

So where was Hugh? Does he have a reasoned argument against charity, or does he just hate poor people?
