Yesterday I saw "Superstar Worldwide" and it was really embarrassing. Not for me but for our German "Superstar" Axel Klaus (or some such). "Really terrible" says US judge Simon Cowell. "Like an aerobic instructor turned stripper" says the Australian judge. Who's English by the way. Like the US judge, the English judge and our own Shona Fraser. I wonder they let jury people from other nations even touch the jury table. Unfair advantage, anyone? Then again, Will Young was so boring my feet fell asleep while he was wrenching out "Light my Fire". Jim Morrison was turning in his grave. Not very fast, but still. "Yeah, light my fire, light my fire, light my fire *uninspired explosion to the left* light my firelightmyfirelightmyfire *uninspired explosion to the right". Booooring!

RTL had edited the broadcast to the point where viewers could probably sue them for mutilation. Hence we apparently missed how the jury members ganged up on the Polish judge because he was stupid. Well, we *saw* he was stupid when he offered to drink some vodka after the show with "his" contestant, 16-year-old blonde "I wanna be Kim Wilde when I grow up" Alex.

The Australian contestant looked and sounded like Lenny Kravitz on acid. The Canadian confused dancing with knee-bends and jerky arm movements to almost rival Alex' "Maniac" aerobic instructor choreography.

I actually liked the "Little Norwegian Hobbit" and the "Rock till you drop" Belgian. And that Kelly Clarkson sho nuff can sing. Well, we'll see what comes of it.

After that I saw the Bachelor. Oh dear. Oh dear. I'm not saying anything else. Just that I think maybe one should go out Saturday night to avoid the nonexistant TV programming. It's rubbed in: Hey, YOU'RE NOT OUT - Watch THIS and wish you were!!!!!
