Not successfully managed to be an American Idol, William Hung at least still has something to proud of. The man is being crowned "Artichoke King" in the small city that calls itself "artichoke capital of the world."

The crowning, in fact, places him in line with Marilyn Monroe who was the first "Artichoke Queen" at the 1947 Castroville Artichoke Festival. And such attainment obviously leads Hung to ride in parade Sunday May 21st, during which he will perform new versions of The Beach Boys' "Surfin' USA" and the Billy Ray Cyrus line-dancing anthem "Achy Breaky Heart."
