The Gong Show was the original American idol show. One of my faves. He also did great work for our country

It's much better on the original, with the audience and panel's reaction. Urban legend is that the one on the left was Debralee Scott from Welcome Back Kotter. It looked just like her, but she denied it when asked. I'm not so sure.

I would say the chances of it being Scott are very high. Especially since she was later a regular on the game show circuit. Either way, she took that answer to the grave.
