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."
Well, I think they did mention last time about inviting people rather than doing the big cattle call thing, I think they are trying to separate themselves from the OMG any store clerk could be the next big star (even if they've been performing for years and we will pretend they never had a voice lesson) thing of X-factor and Idol.
The we are looking for hard working singers who need a break tends to set the bar quite a bit higher just to get on the show and does give them a different feel from Idol, etc.
Makes sense to have some open auditions as some people are good and haven't gotten any break at all, but I think it sets up a different standard and probably attracts people from a different population than the any average joe could be a star mythos.
