Y'know I was racking my brains to figure out how the hell Rob/Millsie, whatever you wanna call him, got more votes than Paulini, Levi and Shannon...and then tonight while watching the show it was soooo pathetically obvious, with the 'We Love Rob' t-shirt clad girls who baked the cake for him.

I'll admit he can hold a tune better than most guys I know, but am I the only one who thinks that he is just too karaoke? When he sang, 'When You Say Nothing At All' by Ronan Keating tonight, I could have sworn I even heard Ronan's irish accent in there.
And honestly, I've seen better looking guys working as trolley boys at Woolies...

Sure, I guess the whole competition can be seen as one big karaoke event but I think the other contestants really make the songs their own by not just getting up there, and singing the songs how they've been sung a thousand times before.

I thought the whole idea of Oz Idol was to find a person with an individual style and sound. Shannon has his sexy (I think it's sexy) country/rock voice, Cossima has her large range of vocal chords etc. and Rob has his Ronan/Westlife/we've-heard-it-all-before type sound.

It's a bit sad and scary to think that the majority of the votes are by tween-teen girls who probably just want another 'pretty face' to hang up on their wall.

Anways, as long as Rob's gone next week, I'll be stoked with whoever wins, but go Guy and Paulini!

I totally agree with your comments. I am so frustrated that rob is still in!! As if he even compares vocally with the past 3 contestants that have left (Lauren, Bek n Levi). I think Marcia hit the nail on the head Sunday nite by asking Australia to vote for talent. I am gonna be spewing if iv watched this competition for so many weeks, only to see rob win, it would be a total disgrace. But if history repeats itself and like in Popstars where Scott Cain got in because of his pretty face, Rob will be where Scott is now, NO WHERE!! You can already tell that Rob has let fame get to his head and he hasnt even won yet. By this im regarding the time he was 1hr late to a group rehearsal after a late nite out. He said he slept at a mates house but please, we all know that aint true!

yeah, i reckon... the last thing we need is another ronan keating, don't get me wrong - ronan is cool, but why do we want another singer whose voice is a copy of ronan's? then we'll have 2 ppl on our airwaves that sound he same. how bout looking for a unique voice we've never heard of before?

i swear, if rob becomes our australian idol.... there has got to be something seriously wrong w/australia.

[lilah]

Soo

Boy do I agree with everything you say

Ohhh Rob has to go tonight!!!! I was disappointed that he stayed last week and Levi went .. Geez!! Girls wake uppp!! Rob's not gonna like you if you vote for him 210389203 times!! If you ask me his a bit of a sleeze bag!.. He needs to wake up like the rest of you girls do.. Were voting for a voice and talent! Someone like Guy or Paulini.. Were not voting for someone who is a womanizer or good looking.. (not that Rob is any of those). Yeah Rob is a talented singer and he can sing but not as well as the others.. Like a lot of people say "Rob has a pub voice, Not an international one".. So vote for a voice not a sleeze bag!!!

[kimmie]

i agree that rob has a pub voice - but people cant hate him for trying -
its the voters that are keeping him in

you cant hate anyone just for going after their dreams
and thats all the guy is doin - im sure he doesnt want to sing in pubs for the rest of his life....

this was probably his way of seeing just how fair he could go - testing it out

no one can hate him for that
and if u do then your shallow...

- go paulini
