PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

"Why JD will win" |
You have to go by the comments that INXS & Dave have been making.Passion He's obviously the most passionate and he generates the most passion. Love him or hate him, people write about him, discuss him. Have you ever looked at blog comments or message boards and noticed how often his name comes up even when the original topic is someone else? Voice I don't know why some people don't like his voice. I love it and think it's incredibly sexy. He has never (that I can remember anyway) been critiqued by INXS or Dave for it. I can easily imagine his voice singing INXS songs. I'm not saying he has the best vocals - I'm saying he doesn't need the best vocals. Something the judges have said, too. Stage Presence Regardless of what you think about him, do you see how the audience responds??? He really plays to them, especially the ladies - he is a Performer. I do like him and wish he would play to the camera more but understand why he doesn't - he focuses on the audience in front of him. I think that's part of the reason why he bugs some viewers so much - he doesn't woo tv viewers the way he does the live audience. Jordis plays straight to the camera with those big, beautiful eyes - it's easier to connect with her and like her. Versatility/Range How many times has INXS/Dave complimented him on his range, his taking risks, his mixing things up? Noticed how they've had to say to others, "Show me something different." Notice how Marty didn't bother to "lighten up" (I think that's what they said) and now they are openly questioning if he's right for the band. (I'd have been FREAKING OUT if I was Marty and heard that last night. Or maybe not - I get the idea he's just using this as an open audition.) Versatility/Ability Can write, arrange, as well as, sing. Way more than everyone else. Wanting it more Who would you rather hire? Someone who says, "I love your band and have since I was a kid. This is my dream." Or someone who's using this as an open audition? Attitude (problem) One thing, at the first skirmish, Dave said they singers would be judgeed by their performance on stage, nothing else. Secondly, I think his villian role is due to editing for effect, for so-called good tv. The whole teamwork exercise - I think that was for TV - do you really think INXS cares about that? JD has never given them attitude - he idolizes them. They are not worried at all about having a hard time handling them. He takes their critiques and makes changes. He listens to them. No one is calling Marty arrogant and hard to deal with because he ignores their critiques. That IMHO is a sign of an attitude problem. He seems to be saying, "This is who I am. I won't adapt for you." Well, this is already too long so I'll stop.

I don't know. I don't think his voice is great and am not a fan of his performances - and aren't I and all the others who are not fans of his part of the "audience" also? He seems hard to get along with and don't think his "talent" is good enough to overcome his personality.

Well, this is a house divided! I can't stand JD--anything about him, appearance, voice, musical renditions, and especially the prima donna attitude...........BUT my hubby thinks he is THE best, hands' down! Go figure. That's why there are so many different folks out there who have success, and people wonder how it came to be.

Most times when any (rock, movie, tv, etc) star is an a$$hole we don't know about it because their publicist or the media covers it up. I'd say that a significant number of them are "difficult" and hard to work with. Barbra Streisand, Jim Morrison, certain stars of Desparate Housewives, Sean Penn, a lot of grown up child stars - these all come to mind.

I just know it was an MSN Aussie site. I saw the questions somewhere else. I wasn't on the site at the time. I know Tim and Kirk were answering questions. It was Kirk's idea to do the show.

10. "Agree!" |
Welcome to the boards LaLaLisa. I think you're spot on in your analysis.I hated J.D. at first, but he's totally won me over. He's the ONLY one left I can even imagine singing INXS songs. Susie performs their songs well, but in the end, I don't think INXS fans, or INXS themselves want a female singer. That means Deanna and Jordis won't win either. Tai is too theatrical, as they've told him, and he's too much, if you know what I mean. It would be the Tai show, not the INXS show. Marty sure does Nirvana really well. That's the kind of band he needs to be in, not INXS. Mig, as I said elsewhere, is just too darn sweet. He has no edge, and is no rock star. J.D. has edge, drive, personality, passion, desire, talent, charisma, ... I think he's got this in the bag.

>Because he's the best one there. Hands down. We seem to think alike, Geg6. J.D. is head & shoulders above the rest for INXS right now & the best chance for a serious comeback (I was a HUGE INXS fan, so I have a real interest in the outcome). Overall, he has had the least bad performances (I can only name ONE - Champions) his first performance was great vocally, but he had too much nervous energy, INXS commented on it & JD listened, as he has been listening to everything they're saying, and corrected it. Watching the women & girls swoon in the audience is a big indication that JD has that something that you want your lead singer to have. He is the ONLY contestant who is taking this seriously & wants to FRONT INXS. Does that make him the "evil" or "bad" one in the house, because he doesn't want to perform a fluff lame song in a collaboration contest or that he puts it out there how bad he wants this? So, be it then, he is a bad boy, because he is passionate & serious about what he wants to be associated with. I don't see an ego from J.D., I see someone who wants to impress INXS. If he had a big ego, he wouldn't be listening to them & graciously taking their criticism. Unless J.D. tanks on singing classic INXS songs (which I don't think anyone expects) he should win & I look forward to buying the new album when it comes out & adding to my INXS CD collection.
