Any fans of these sorts of shows?
What do you think about artist that make it big through them?

I love the X factor. It's an amazing contest, giving anoyone the chance to become a pro full time artist.
Leonna used to work next door to where I work Man she's is one of the best artists I've seen/heard.

Leona really is great isn't she? I also really like the other people that came out of it, Alexandra Burke and JLS. I sort of lost respect for American Idol once theyr recruited Ellen Degeneres as a host. What's up with that??

The first thing that came to my mind when I saw this thread was this video :


That was this morning, I had to look for the video of course....
Came across this one  :


And then this one :

 

And the most amazing thing about it all is that they are so convinced  that they are so VERY good !!!!! 

 

My heart really goes out to people who really try.. I mean I have to give them credit for that much...lol...although it is  humorous   ...

HAHAHA....
Yeah, i love those auditions from american idol! but u can sometimes tell that they're just there for tv.

Yes they try..but they are trying at something they shouldn't...some pie in the sky idea of fame and stardom while their performances are truly strange. They should try, with as much passion, something else. Something they are good at.
And they'll probably find what they are good at by not looking for something they are not good at ...but then someone has to convince them of that !

These "reality" TV competitions are quite entertaining, most of the time. I prefer American Idol, just because it's more easily accessible over here in Canada.

Just a disclaimer... My username is in NO WAY related to its counterpart on television! (I found out about the show after I had created my account, unfortunately.)

I'm not a huge fan of the show, though I have to admit that Leona Lewis is a talented lady!
