Markkk for idol 08 biggrin.gif

Bands need to stop reforming. Seriously. Especially after so long.
adro
i think idol needs to stop-yes the whole show is interesting because its for our entertainment but realistically most of us wont buy their albums so i guess the whole "winning" idol thing is completely over-rated...

WHERES NATALIE GONE? she still hasnt got an album out after a whole year working on it...and its the usual reponse "sorry for the delay-im just making sure everything is right"

blah lol
Andrew_1992
^ i spoke to Nat at the Aria's and she said her album should be out Feb

Ricki-Lee Coulter has revealed she's heading to the United States to start a new chapter of her pop life.
The Australian Idol co-host has told the Herald Sun she plans to put her personal dramas behind her and begin next year based in Los Angeles for two months, beginning in January.

And there is a feature article on Idol in this week's The Age Green Guide:

I was just reading about Ricki going to LA a few minutes ago on news.com.au i wish Ricki all the best and i think 2009 is going be a busy year for her.

From the Adelaide Sunday Mail:

TRYING to understand Irishman Brian McFadden over a fuzzy phone line is like having someone throw a handful of Scrabble tiles in your face and asking you to read it back.
The singer was calling from Sydney after spending Thursday night with the remaining five contestants on Australian Idol, and he gave former Adelaide boy Wes Carr the big thumbs-up for the win this year. We think.
"Wes is more of an artist, vibey and strong. For a quiet man he is a leader," he said.
"The other contestants said Wes is the favourite, they think he's going to win. I can see why they would say that. But it all depends on what people see as the right mix."
A chat with Wes was a little easier to decipher, with the 26-year-old sharing his thoughts on being an "overnight" success after a decade in the industry. "I can't comprehend that people are sitting in Dubbo, or wherever, and texting my name and I don't even know them," he said.
The Gawler boy, who was "politely asked to leave Trinity College" at 15 and describes himself as "a bit of a rebel" in his earlier years, plays guitar, piano, harmonica, drums and bass. He's looking forward to tonight's Michael Jackson show when he'll sing Black Or White.

The Sunday Telegraph music writer Jonathon Moran comments on guest appearances on Australian Idol.
QUOTE
DO the Australian Idol producers think we're stupid?
Chris Brown's supposed live-to-air performance last Monday was actually recorded a few days earlier and, if you were looking closely, the judges weren't even in their seats to watch him sing.
Hosts Andrew G and James Mathison introduced the American pop star as if it was live to air and Ricki-Lee Coulter gushed from backstage and said she wished she was in the audience.
What viewers at home didn't realise was that Coulter was pretending and actually looking at an empty stage.
And the "live'' appearance of Pink scheduled for tomorrow night on Idol was recorded when she was in Australia for the ARIA Awards.
Producers also need to think more carefully about the theme nights.
The voting punters are usually teenagers so perhaps the show should go witha top-40 hits night instead of the narrow genres of ABBA, Rolling Stones or Michael Jackson songs.
To be fair though, producers have secured an impressive line-up of guest judges and mentors, including Cyndi Lauper, former Savage Garden frontman Darren Hayes and Chris Isaak, who will be on the show next week.

http://www.news.com.au/dailytelegraph/stor...5009160,00.html

The Sunday Herald Sun says today that Jermaine Jackson, one of the original members of the Jackson Five (which also includes Michael and Janet), will be guest judge on tonight's show. Jermaine was in Sydney to do promotional work for Foxtel when he was invited by Idol producers to appear on the show.

Here are broadcast times for next week (all times are local).

Sunday, November 9 - Final 4 performance (theme: American #1 Hits)
This week the remaining four contestants will be belting out songs that have been #1 hits in the U.S.A, in front of international superstar Chris Isaak, who is joining Australian Idol as a guest judge and mentor for this week.
Channel Ten, Southern Cross Ten, WIN Ten South Australia, TDT Tasmania, Darwin Digital Television: 7.30pm - 8.30pm
WIN TV Western Australia: 9.30pm - 10.30pm *special early time*

Monday, November 10 - Final 3 verdict
Instead of the bottom 3, it is expected the bottom two will be revealed and they will sing one more time before voting lines reopen.
Channel Ten, Southern Cross Ten, WIN Ten South Australia, TDT Tasmania, Darwin Digital Television: 7.30pm - 8.30pm
WIN TV Western Australia: 11.00pm - midnight

IRISH singer-songwriter Brian McFadden last week made a visit to the Australian Idol house to offer support and advice to the remaining contestants.
"There are some big characters in there," he says.
Mark Spano, the remaining Victorian in the Idol top five, says McFadden's visit was valuable.
"He was saying be truthful to yourself and learn from your mistakes," he says.
Spano has split with make-up artist Lynne O'Brien, who he hooked up with during a shoot for the show a couple of months ago.
"It's probably not the right time for a relationship. It's a bit distracting," he says.
