[Spoiler] World Idol winner


Recommended Posts

eh, i managed to not catch any sleep at all, so i was awake watching the World Idol a few minutes ago. it seemed like Kurt (the guy who sang Beautiful day) won :blink:

i don't see how he won, half of those contestants sounded much better imho, even the runner up down here seemed to have a better voice. but really, i predicted either the British, American or Australian contestants would be the top 3.

regardless of him winning, i don't think he will be very famous worldwide. i always thought the winners of their country would always be their favourite singer (i.e. the Americans like their winner, British likes the British winner). so in popularity, my opinion is the country with the biggest population (more people liking Pop) will have the most famous idol.

only reason i stood up was to watch the worst singers (hehe :D) and Kelly Clarkson (she was damn hot) :)

your opinions?

Kurt was the best!!He got a incredible voice, even thoug I don't like his kind of music at all. But we're from the same country, so that basically explains why I think he was the best.

EDIT: Did any of you see the face of Kelly Clarkson when she didn't win??Bad looser i think, but she's very beautiful.

i just don't think he has the voice to be classified as a "pop singer". rock, maybe, but his choice of a song doesn't reflect his ability to sing a pop song. which explains why 2/3 of the constestants chose pop songs. :p

I think Kurt won because the pop industrys and record buyers integrity were on the line. What would it say about pop culture if the best singer didn?t win just because he looked like crap?

I don?t think he?ll be a World Idol though. But it?s cool that he won nonetheless..

what I don't get is that most of the people who vote are probably in the 14-18 age bracket, and all singers sang some old hit ..

It makes me wonder if the result would have been different if just one person had sung a justin timberlake song (for example). I think they missed the whole point of targetting the voting audience. (my opinion)

lol, I woke up to watch it too! I gotta say that the winner supprised me, and Guy didnt do as good as I thought he would.

I'm actually happy that Kurt won, shows that the industry could be heading away from cheap pop and back towards real music.

I'm actually glad the Kelly never won it now. Nothing against the USA, Kelly is great. At the start of the show I wanted her to win but when Kurt kept getting top marks from each country the look on her face was priceless, it was almost like she was disgusted that Kurt was winning, she looked shocked. At about the 3rd set of results I started desperately wanting her to loose, I just wanted to see her face if she lost, because you could tell that she was expecting to win the comp.

Amen!!

i'm really sorry, i emailed two admins and requested them to change the title asap. :(

It's alrite. You made a mistake no biggie. I still watched and was shocked he won so handlely. I also laughed cause the Canadian had the funniest face whenever he got higher then sixth. lol he really sucks.

Kurt ... :angry: That weener, won? What the hell is wrong with this world!!! :blink:

Guy was the best, all there is to it... And Kelly whatever her name is ... What an attention ######... :no: This is all wrong. So wrong...

:|

edit: Would also like to add that the two worst judges were:

1. The fricken dick head from the US - :crazy:

2. The brain lacking twit from Poland.... Enough said... :|

It's based on vocal skill not the home town favourite that you think was cool.  The two with the best voice finished top two.

To me:

1. The Canadian Entry... Sang "He's not heavy, he's my brother" was the best.

2. The Australian Entry... Guy Sebastian

3. The heavy rocker dude! :punk: (Y)

4. -> Whatever... All lusers...

... and that Kelly Clarkson... :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: What a sore luser :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

1. The fricken dick head from the US - :mad:

the Polish judge who prentended to be a smart-arse by talking fast and ending all his sentences with "thank you!" really ****ed me off. i bet all the judges were swearing at him, but that probably got edited out.
