Interesting stuff, thanks for the update. All this drama across the pond. ^_^ If America's Got Talent takes a dip in the ratings maybe they'll try to stir up [!@#$%^&*] and bring on some young hot thing to sit on the panel. Actually, with Whatshisname replacing Larry King that might happen... though they'd never bring on a woman unless they replaced him with a man and ADDED a woman.

I'm looking forward to the X Factor coming here actually--even with the new judges, American Idol doesn't stand a chance against it--no wonder it died a quick death int he UK when X Factor came. It's just a much better format with higher production values--I could never see American Idol doing or producing a pop star (not rock or singer songwriter, mind you) on this level:

Wow, Idol doesn't even give their returning winners all that. Cool. And look at Simon, damn near giddy.

Yeah, his moobs were jiggling and everything!

Ha Yeah even the awful performers (like Jedward this year) get full on dancers, etc. And SImon should be--she's making him TONS of money and is on his label, even if Cheryl was her mentor, not him, so Cheryl won that round. He's re-recorded her album for a US release this Fall and mark my words, she's gonna be pretty massive--they've already been tailoring her for the US market.

LOL! I don't think that takes much ;)

hmm, you have to factor in the unrelenting blandness of the American audience though. This country voted for that other guy over Adam Lambert. And I think the fact I don't even remember his name sort of says it all.

That's a good point--and the people who vote for those shows are mainly preteen girls and grandmas (stereotypes I know :P -- My grandma wanted Adam to win :P ) But I think Idol has run its course, I couldn't even tell you who was on the show this year...

Hmm...i watched and I only remember the final 2...lol

Oh, thanks, Rux! For some reason, I was thinking it was Chad Allen; but then I was like, "What? No, that can't be it!" LOL!

It also depends on the year and the public mood and the competition, even in the UK. A few years ago a fairly average and very stage frightened "crooner" named Leon surprised and upset many by beating the eclectic, unique looking (muscular with big platinum blonde/white hair) pop opera singing Rhydian. It was said that the UK only votes for people they feel sorry for or who are losers, that he only won because he got to sing with Kylie Minogue on the finale, etc.

  • Member

Yeah it's all relative. I forgot all about the brilliant camp spectacle of Rhydian and his scary Village of the Damned glares into the camera!! Didn't he do a Village People song? Go West? Brilliant! lol
