Andrea Bocelli?

Do you know who I really don't like? Ryhdian.

Now there's Popstar to Operastar on TV.....what does everyone think of that programme?

I am in two minds about it. the pop stars are performing better than i thought they would, but is the show undermining opera's integrity?

I think that the contestents should be judged on their talent, but I fear it's likely there will be a stigma working on them. Sad truth but most Opera fans seem to be elitists.

But maybe this can breed a new generation of non-elitist opera fans??!!
