From the now famous site that broke the Mel Gibson story TMZ, comes a story which may explain why Zayra is still here!! ACKKK!!! stories like this might generate enough votes to keep her around!!
Star: Supernova's" Breakout Star Posted Aug 3rd 2006 12:39PM by TMZ Staff Tommy Lee and Dave Navarro may be established musical bad boys but to catch some true rock star antics on CBS' "Rock Star: Supernova" check out gorgeous contestant Zayra Alvarez. With her lively and outrageous performances of The Kinks' "You Really Got Me" and "Bring Me To Life" by Evanescence, the Puerto Rican songstress has stolen the show and become the one to watch this season. Unfortunately, despite haunting renditions of REM's "Everybody Hurts" and K's Choice "Not an Addict," Zayra has routinely landed in the bottom three. But since you never know what she is going to do, say (her sassy retorts to the judges' critiques are worth the price of admission alone) or wear next, fans are tuning in just to catch the latest episode of the Zayra show. A fact that even the judges, Navarro and Lee, pointed out on this week's episode. A mix of Blondie's Debbie Harry with the Yeah Yeah Yeahs' Karen O, Zayra's fashion forward ensembles (like the blue skin tight catsuit or her cape, gloves, and boots superhero trifecta) are a welcome change to the standard rock star uniform of black jeans, tank tops and wrist cuffs. Zayra has the potential to become a musical fashion icon - think Gwen Stefani or J.Lo but edgier. And if Zayra winds up on top at the end of the competition, the leggy Latina may find that the hardest part of the gig isn't winning but fending off Tommy Lee while on tour. Check out Zayra Alvarez in all her glory on "Rock Star: Supernova" Tuesdays at 9pm on CBS.

I think whomever wrote that has been smoking too much of the hard stuff! My personal opinion is that a lot of Latinos vote for her just because she is Latino. And conversely, it pays for the producers to keep her on the show at this relatively early point to keep their Latino viewers. Demographics rule the world, right? (NO, I DIDN'T SAY DEMOCRATS!)

if she wins, then the whole show is a joke. she has no talent whatsoever. she does get off some good lines tho, but i seriously hope they aren't keeping her on for her whatever she's got (didn't know how to say it--it sure can't be charisma).

She can't win unless they want her - doesn't the band pick the actual winner from the final two or three??

Yes, Jan. SuperNova will decide from the final three. Zayra does not make for a good SuperNova lead singer, but then, neither do a handful of other rockers there. Zayra makes for good TV, period. That's why she's still there. To me, she's a freaky mix of Celine Dion and Bjork.

Rock Star hostess Brooke Burke and former Baywatch star David Charvet are expecting their first child together, sources tell Us. Burke, 34, already has two daughters, Neriah, 6, and, Sierra Sky, 4, from her marriage to Extreme Makeover plastic surgeon Dr. Garth Fisher. She and Fisher married in 2001 and separated a year ago but have yet to divorce. SeriouslyOMGWTF

Wow, Ladybug! I totally missed the expanding waistline. I'm usually pretty eagle-eyed on that score. Maybe that's why Dave Navarro has stopped flirting so outrageously with her. Are you sure it's not Dave's baby?

Well, being pregnant is no excuse for wearing that hideous shirt with the quails all over it the other night. I swear my mother had a dress like that in the 80s!

Lurking on the youtube.com I came across a female singer that used to be in the band called 'headpins' but looking at her video it dawned on me that she would be the perfect match for this band, unfortunately she is already signed... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4EjmA-9MYEA

Lurking on the youtube.com I came across a female singer that used to be in the band called 'headpins' Darby Mills? While I can see your logic, I have to disagree. One, Darby is close to 50 years old. The reality is, if you want to sell records these days, having a 50 year-old lead singer whose career peaked in the 80's, isn't going to cut it. Also, Darby had a Janis Joplin vibe about her. While you might think Supernova is looking for that, I don't think they are. I think they are looking for someone who is eclectic with a rock edge, not just straight out rock.

Scorpiomoon, Yeh I suppose your right... oh well... My general thought: Many good international bands do not make it big in the US. These bands have talented members that could potentially make good members of future bands. (Ex: Magni)

Anyone else watch the mansion show yet? I am curious if Zayra was basically omitted from the whole show for a reason??? Maybe trying to draw attention away from her???
