yeah it was,

is that how eurovision works? i think it will be sligltly different, won't they knock someone out each week? 1 show will be kind of crap

 

[Suney_J]

but will it be fair?, wont ppl jst vote for their own idol?
cuz our population is like 20 mill, and usa has bout 280 mill. so some idol winners have an advantage over others.
man ill hate kelly clarkson if she wins, isn't she suppossed 2 be ms independent, i dont think so, she'll depend on all those votes

 

[truly-in-bliss]

good pun suney j... hahah kelly clarkson is not my cup of tea.... and its soo ptless if countries just vote for their own...

 

[*~Dazed~*]

i doubt we would be able to vote... its too hard to do on a global scale... i think that they would probably get judges from every country and decide the winners through the judges... i mean please that would be the best way otherwise there would be too much bias... like hello for example america has what? 200 million people whilst australia has about 20....

Not 200 million people in theUS like Kelly you know. The Kelly-haters are going to vote someone else. Like 40% of them.

[MiuMiu]

The voting will involve some sort of phone number or SMS, cos thats how the show makes its money.

 

[lillaila]

I'm so not gonna vote for my country, esp. if it's Guy.......
He's so gonna b kicked by other ppl...........
Well, that's MY opinion n e way........
So wished Cosima could have made it........she came top 2 did u kno?......after Guy.......well obviously obviously.

 

[~TeLEpAtHeTiC~]

downlaod his performances if ya wanna see some talent, but not to take anything away from everyone else

it was

but guy is still better

i think kelly clarkson has a bit of a head start on world idol since we know who she is

there is a canadian idol as well
and an arab idol

from one of the sites

As fas as I know,Poland,Belgium,Germany,South Africa,Australia and Canada will be in World Idol as well as the US and the UK.I've heard a few more names too mentioned.....however quite a few major European nations have never used Pop Idol,including France,Spain and Italy (they have their own shows,mostly based around the Fame Academy format which originated in Spain

OMG....I heard Kelly is NOT competing in the World Idol.....
I hope it's not true!

she is, and also what i hav heard is that it is only one show, with an encores
its not like a person with the lowest votes gets voted off each week
i think its just a one of show
that just sucks but
meh i hope its a full series
