How come on the Popstars show - ALL the singers run with an American accent? Why why why? Isn't there someone out there who has the courage and logic to sing with their own natural accent. The American thing is just appalling. There were one or two who were good the rest were tragic - and that chick Mel will be lucky to get a run at karaoke after her nonsense and distorted perception of her ability (or lack of).

I so agree with you on that. I don't think you would have seen that kind of thing tolerated on Idol. BUt do you think any of them are at the same standard as the top 5 on Idol. They don't seem to have much originality. No one really stood out like GUY and Paulini, in vocial ability. Maybe we just need to give them time to develope a bit more

I saw Arnott for the first time on this year's show on Wed night and thought.... "that's funny there was another Arnott on the last Popstars but he didn't look like that. Maybe that name is mor common than I thought." But it was him, 40 kg lighter. I thought he had the best vocals in the last series and I think he is pretty good now. His weight last time held him back, so maybe now he will have a better crack at it (and it's better for him too). I remember him singing his own song last time and it was great, a real soul searcher. It got him through another round back then, just when he was about to be axed. I wonder how far he will get this time?

Yep i think Arnott is really good too. I remembered him from the second Popstars. When he sang his own song last time, everyone was in tears at the end.

Was the winner Scott Caine or was that another year? I can't remember now. But that is all I remember from the series, not that I watched that many of them. But that song stuck out to me. I lost interest when he left the show and all we were left with were a bunch of very attractive looking people who were hopeless singers.

It was the year 2001 when Arnott was in it, the year they created Scandal'us, they did have nice voices though.

You are right. The singers actually weren't that bad. It's just that they were... nice, like a lot of singers. Nothing to turn my head.
It must be really hard to have that extra something because it is undefinable.
I guess I get tired of seeing all these gorgeous people. It's not fair!!
2001 - wow that long ago.

that's what I'm concerned about with this group not enough unique voice, but alot of nice voices. I so agree about Arnott, I had goose bumps listening to him, i would vote for him, but i wonder if the teenie bops will have their way again and let some dud go through cause he isn't the tipical POP guy???
