If there was one thing that Danny Gokey was known for on season 8 of American Idol – other than his screeching ending to Aerosmith’s “Dream On” – it was his eyeglasses.
The guy has more eyeglasses than some women have shoes. And now FramesDirect is offering fans the chance to copy the crooner’s specs.
The company makes a big disclaimer that they are not in partnership with Danny Gokey, but just pulling together the selection of frames that he wore. But 10% of the proceeds from the sale fo these frames will go to support Sophia’s Heart, the foundation Gokey started in honor of his wife, who died last year.
To see the selection of Danny Gokey’s eyeglasses, visit FramesDirect.com.
You can find the archive of American Idol posts here.

I like the eyeglasses he wears. And what a noble way of helping others through foundations. It is good that there are Online Eyeglasses service providers where any customer can avail.
