Hi Penny I think the person in NZ was referring to Ruben and Clay from American Idol 2 series - Will and Garthe from England series 1 Both the runners up have out sold the Winners and had more overseas exposure. If you see Sheenia thread about GUY and Shannon you will find that Guy is doing a little better than Shannon at the moment. But having said that lets not get into who is doing better than who. Each of these aritist have their own styles, they have to prove themselves in the industry. I'm not worried if Shannon does out sell GUY, that would be fantasitic for him and his fans. For me as long as GUy is doing what he loves and making music, I will be here to support him. It's not about where he is on the charts it's about what connections you make with the music. there are loads of artists who have never had a number one but have influence the music industry. So long as MY GUY is making music that is all I care about. xxBo Phew! thank you for reminding me that Bo, I know it doesn't matter who sells more or less, it doesn't really worry me if Shannon out sell Guy just as long Guy stays for a very long time. I just get over protective when it comes to Guy I think. I hope you had a good weekend in Adelaide. Pennyxx

Pennyxx I know I get like that too ** just like a lioness ready to pounce on anyone who DARE's to say an unkind or untrue word about MY GUY and you think I'm sweet and innocent, but don't get in my way if you see the eyes change colour I have been known to rip people to shredds** I am so looking forward to seeing my family and new nephew. Will tell you all about it when I get back, i leave on Saturday. love your protective motherly nature Penny and I know you just had GUY's best interest at heart. xxBo

Ok Penny here is the stats Arwen posted in the other thread to ease your mind. here is a summary of guy and shannons single and album sales <G> = GOLD (35000 UNITS) • <P> = PLATINUM (70000 UNITS) Guy Angles Brought Me Here <P>5 Album <P>6 All I Need Is You <P> Shannon What about Me <P>4 Album <P>4 Drive <G> BUT like I said it's not about who has done what. It's about the what the music mean's to you and that's what counts not numbers. Huh! you clever girl, thank you You could have been my older sister, you are always wise with your words. I can lose control and my cool very quickly I must say. Ta, princess. Pennyxx

The reporter then went on to say shes not that gutted, you'd never know, basically he was saying the American Idol 2003 and the Australian Idol are outsold by their runner ups, that could happen to her too! ...... Please tell me that's not true! I hope he only means in NZ. I shouldn't worry. It's only another reporter not doing his homework. If you check out the other thread and the above posts on sales you will see that this is not the case. Not at present. What happens in the future is anyone's guess but guesswork is not reporting is it? NZ sales for guy have been reasonable, don't know about Shannon though. And Guy has sold in Asia too, so that cancels out the overseas sales bit. I don't think this reporter knows what he is talking about . Oh dear there is a lot of this about.

I saw this very short report on the news this evening about NZ Idol 3rd finalist Camillia Temple that got voted out last night, they were showing her on a little interview about her future. The reporter then went on to say shes not that gutted, you'd never know, basically he was saying the American Idol 2003 and the Australian Idol are outsold by their runner ups, that could happen to her too! I could kill that reporter, i could kill him! I swear!!!!! Please tell me that's not true! I hope he only means in NZ. There's another way of looking at this - Camilla had just been booted off Idol. Maybe the reporter was just trying to say something positive. It is true that some runner ups have done better than Idol winners. Maybe the reporter mentioned it without being too specific to help lift Camilla's spirits. SoC

Oh thank you so very much sweetie, I know my reaction when I first heard it was a little immature, I should know that Guy will always be number one and that he will always be special. As he said before, even if he didn't sing anymore he will be writing songs, I will always support him no matter what he end up doing. I think I should forgive that reporter as its not nice being mad at anyone. but if he says anymore, I'd come and get you and we'd go after him together! Love Penny.
