And please don't tell me the 'public' has spoken. Sorry, but the public say what they are told to say. See what they are shown. Do what is expected of them. Baaaaa....

Think I'm being cynical? OK, explain that OTHER Idol 'sensation', She-Bang Huang...

She can actually carry a tune......Huang was a comedian..Even you should be able to tell the difference...

I suppose, from the fact that he had his fifteen minutes, he MUST be a great and genuine talent too? I mean, how could we POSSIBLY argue with what the 'public' likes? Oh, might as well put Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian up in that pantheon, too...


The idea is to please the PUBLIC....not DIKI..In that regard, she has achieved far more....ya think?

I'm sorry, but the last few years have only shown us that ANYBODY can be made into a 'star', if only enough TV time is put behind them.


And that's a new concept?? No Diki thats been going on since the 70's.......and here I thought only us frogs lived under rocks...
