"You Can't Sing In Chinese!!!"

We British came up with the Popstars idea first. I remember that only too well. rolleyes Then America caught the wondrous fever. Will Young became the first Pop Idol winner, Gareth Gates the runner up, and Michelle McManus won the second year's. Kelly Clarkson became a star after American Idol, the alternative of Pop Idol, started. Then we scrapped Pop Idol and created X Factor.

*sigh*

lol and the U.S took that and turned it into a variety of dare shows. rolleyes  

[Chibito7]

Indeed. It has become some sort of... crazy trend. Man. Now it's not just singing shows. We have dancing shows. Did anyone watch the Dance Eurovision (can you believe it?! Graham Norton and that presenter from Strictly presented... Claudia, that's her name. At least they are relatively funny...)? Who won? Great Britain had the unfair advantage dancing-wise. Both of our dancers are professional and celebrities, so... But who the heck would vote for us anyway?! It's a politics based competition anyway. At least we didn't end up with zero points in the Eurovision Song one, last the year before. Phff.

Next it'll be cooking. Or something. Cooking is a big TV thing now too, as is ice skating... Hm...

i don't think ice skating is a big thing in the u.s but there is this show about cooking called hell's kitchen. I still don't understand why people want to watch it.

Finland won Eurovision Dance, but they deserved it, their last dance was just beautiful and the music was lovely too. <3 I'm okay that the UK didn't win, but we came SECOND LAST when Brendan and Camilla are obviously amazing.. but the European countries all like vote for their neighbours and we just.. don't have any xD

I generally hate reality TV (can't stand X-factor) but I loved Britain's Got Talent (LITTLE CONNIE TALBOT!!!! She was this six-year-old girl who was SO AMAZING at singing... but the opera guy won). Oh, and I watch Strictly (Come Dancing, but everyone calls it Strictly) every year...

 

[Akilika]

personally for me. i can sing fine canto or mando so long as i know the lyrics- like i get the words that i'm actually singing. if i can say it, then i can sing it

Aaah. Good for Finland. 3nodding I knew we would get little votes, even though our couple were fantastic in the first dance. That's all I pretty much saw, haha. And yep. A politics war, that's what it is! *sigh* Oh well. Whatever. Second last... the poor things didn't deserve that. sad

The girl who was like Mary Poppins and flew in the sky? To be honest... I found her a little annoying. I only watched one show, so it might not be her. sweatdrop She was awful cute, but kind of annoying.

Yes, I like Strictly. 3nodding X Factor is okay... Big Brother, well... xd Man.

@Yalie: Yeah, we have Hell's Kitchen too. I quite like the cooking shows. Then again, I like my TV. xd  

[Niphz]

Nononono! Not that girl, the really really tiny one who sang Somewhere Over the Rainbow..

Brendan will be so pissed off, knowing his character xD I can't wait 'til Strictly comes back(ing?) <3

 

[mymiridon]

Camilla as in the guy the prince wants to marry? o.O

@b&B: I hate big brother. It's a stupid show for voyeurs and attention whores (no offense to people who actually watch it) and it always runs over time in the U.S so i miss my regular programing... stupid nbc... stare

Birtons got talent? that's just like America's got talent! I've been hearing bad things about the show, like how the contestants have no talent... eek  

[Chibito7]

Aaah. I didn't see that girl. whee And yeah. Brendan will be. And might start slagging off the competition and stuff. xd

*laughs* Yalie, America's Got Talent was taken from Britain's Got Talent. Wotcha expect? Britain seems to be producing these kinda shows at top break neck speed. stare

And nooo. Camilla is one of the professional dancers on Strictly Come Dancing. She is paired up with a male celeb. Brendan is one of the professional male dancers on the show.

About Big Brother, I think it's kind of stupid, though I don't mind watching it now and again. The country's usually split over this topic. You either love it or hate it. rolleyes I didn't know America had BB too, but then again I'm not surprised. Thank god this year we don't have Celeb BB. Last year's was a riot...  

[Niphz]

Ohh.. I love Brendan. Really. Arrogance and all. xD But I love Anton more.. and I love BRUNO the most. <3

@yalie - I believe I watched a couple eps of the American version of Strictly, I believe it had somewhat of a dumbed-down title ("Let's Dance!" or something?), but Len and Bruno were on there. -nodnod-

BB is stupid, full stop.

 

[Chibito7]

xd Agreed!

(I wonder how many BB hate clubs there are out there...? *muses to self*)

I find Brendan funny. His arrogance and his looks. He just looks like... a fox. Or something. xd Anton's LOVELY. *squishes* He's just so adorable! And yes, Bruno is wonderful too. I find Arlene strict ( xd ), but they need that I suppose (just like Simon Cowell, his majesty), and it's not like I'm against her. Did you watch Dance X (X Factor? Dance X? Phff...)? Do you know which team won? Len I find is okay, and I find Craig rather amusing at times. I just find Strictly much more entertaining in general, and Forsyth it his typical self. xd  

[mymiridon]

In america it's "dancing with the stars" ... I think.

I didn't really like it, I mean sure dancing is great and all, but it's kind of boring unless there's certain people on it. Plus everyone says the same thing "It was a great experience" blah blah blah. It's like no one ever has a bad experience. talk2hand  

[Niphz]

I dunno, I think it's quite fun.. XD My dad always ends up trying to teach me those dances... rofl Family event, Strictly is.

 

[mymiridon]

I guess family bonding is good... but I have to take a fine arts class and I'm thinking of dance... I hope that's a fine arts class. I've always wanted to learn how to dance (mostly ballet because then I wouldn't really need a partner)  

[Niphz]

Isn't ballet quite hard to take up at this kind of stage if you don't have a background of it? Ballroom is easier to get into, I think.. but I mean, it's not impossible I guess..

..what are the other fine arts choices?
