I love butch walker, he's also a singer in his own right, besides being a producer.

Brooke Burke is back I wish Carmen Electra (Daves wife) would be the host. She has a personality. and is prettier than Brooke. Brooke is too robotic.

Tommy Lee Hopes 'Rock Star' Finds Dangerous, Scary Singer 04.20.2006 6:00 AM EDT 'Why is it that hot chicks never can sing?' drummer wonders on search for Supernova vocalist. Wanted: someone who can sing, scream and scare Tommy Lee. That's what it takes to be the lead singer of Supernova, the drummer's new all-star band with Gilby Clarke and Jason Newsted — a job that will be filled during the course of the summer TV show "Rock Star." "The singer, the ringleader, should be a little dangerous, a little scary, like we're not sure if he's going to make it through the show," said Mötley Crüe's Lee. "You know, there's something exciting about that someone with something to say, somebody who is elusive and weird and strange. That's what brings you back." "They have to be able to go out there, arms flailing, and then jump back and get the hell out of the way," said Newsted, formerly of Metallica. "When I go by flying, spitting sweat and blood, they have to be able to hang with that. If I'm screaming in their ear right before they sing, they better sing on time. It's few and far between that can stand next to us and do that thing." While Supernova are open to the idea of having a singer of "any gender, any size," they're disappointed in the female contestants they've seen so far. "Why is it that the hot chicks never can sing?" Lee asked. Still, they're open to the possibilities — after all, this is new territory for each of them. Supernova started when producer Mark Burnett asked Lee to do "Rock Star," and the drummer presented a short list of people he wanted to play with: Clarke, who had a brief stint in Guns 'N Roses, and Newsted (see "Tommy Lee, Jason Newsted Turn To 'Rock Star' For Supergroup Singer"). "I said, 'Where do I sign up?' " Burnett said. "They're three icons. And they all watched the show last year" when J.D. Fortune was picked to replace the late Michael Hutchence of INXS (see "INXS Insist Finding J.D. Was An 'Organic' Process, Think 'Angels Got Together' "). "They got it." Newsted thinks that because there's never been a singer for Supernova, the search this time will be more authentic. "They had a precedent set, like their singer was going to be this cat that's going to be almost like Michael Hutchence," Newsted said. "We won't have that." Plus, there's the added element that the music is all new. The band has been working with songwriter Butch Walker (Pink, Avril Lavigne). "We build this stuff from the riff rock that we know and refine it and bring it," Newsted said. "That's what I'm looking forward to — doing the music we've been working on for months and then finally delivering it to people." "We knew INXS, we knew their back catalog, and we had an idea of what the band was about," "Rock Star" co-host Dave Navarro said. "Now it's about finding the band's sound and finding out how they are and watching Supernova evolve." While the CBS show is on the air this summer, Supernova will be in the studio, recording their debut album, and their hope is that some of those sessions will make the last three episodes, when they've selected a singer. "The world television audience, they have to see what we've been seeing," Newsted said, "when the cameras are on, the lights are on, and the amps are all the way up." http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1529058/20060419/index.jhtml?headlines=true

Titled "Rock Star: Supernova," this season's contenders will be competing for the chance to join drummer Tommy Lee (Motley Crue, random sex tapes), bassist Jason Newsted (Metallica) and guitarist Gilby Clark (Guns N' Roses) in the newly formed Supernova. Following the September finale, Supernova will record an album with the winner. A fall release and worldwide tour will ensue. Last season's winner was 31-year-old Canadian J.D. Fortune, whose first single with INXS, "Pretty Vegas," helped push the band to its highest-charting debut ever. Here are this season's "Rock Star: Supernova" finalists:

By Gosh, I think you are right , Texannie!! I was going to put your question in a spoiler box for you - then I realized that the Global show is only about Canadian contenders so your question should be fine as is

Lol Yes Tex it is the same show - it's just that , in Canada, there is going to be a one hour special about the auditions that occurred in canada for canadian contestants to this show (eg last years winner was a canadian contestant and you will see that some canadians made it into this years group of finalists) So we will see the same show as you - it's just that, before the show debuts, we will see a one hour special on the picking of the Canadian contenders . Does that make sense  as per tweety's post above <<Tweety Member 04-14-2003 Friday, June 23, 2006 - 5:01 pm For anyone in Canada - Global is showing behind the scenes footage of auditions in Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary this Sunday (June 25th) at 10pm.

Jill Gioia has a fantastic voice. I can't wait to see her on the show. I have met her a few times in person and she has a great personality. She totally gets into her music on stage.

Jan -- you may wanna put Texannie's question in a spoiler box. The list you provided that she's questioning is all the finalists, not just the Canadian ones. And that's the FINAL final list, not the top 50. The Global show we saw last night was the Canadian 6 who were going on to LA with the rest of the top 50. Not that i know the girl in question...

true Karen but the name Tex mentions is an American girl who was once on American idol. I didn't watch the global show last night but I can only assume they were all Canadian??

All I'm sayin' is that she mentions by name one of the people who makes it into the finals -- not just the top 50 auditions in LA, but actually into the house and onto the show. No one is privvy to that info for another couple of days... Doesn't matter if she's Canadian or not, since even those of us who watched the show last night don't know which of the 6 they sent to LA actually get in. But if I look at your list, I know who makes it into the house as a finalist. Make sense? I'm no stickler for spoilers -- spoil me all the way -- but I know a lot of others are...
