Guy Sebastian

OK I'll admit I'm bored and trolling, but forgive me, its freakin' 44 degrees here and I don't like the heat.

You make a good point but it doesn't stretch to mass produced corporate garbage like Guy Sebastian. Idol is designed to make a quick buck for the record label, nothing more.

Thats your opinion which you are intitled to but do they have to wear the Idol Tag for their whole career other Artists have got their breaks on radio contests etc but they do not wear a tag. He most certainly is not garbage, I am glad the Americans are embrassing him as I knew they would :-) The heat stinks I feel for you Melbournites.

varicool. You can like who you like and I will defend your right to like who you like until my last days. If you like Guy's music thats fine by me and you are right it would indeed be a sad world if we all liked the same thing. I am not able to comment as to his music. You tell me what he is like, I don't know.

I can only repeat what I have read and that is not from via TV shows like Today Tonight. I am not prone to watch commercial TV and certainly not light entertainment like Today Tonight and nor Australian Idol for that matter.
I have read a summation of the block voting among Christian churches in several publications and blogs and these discussions can be googled if you so wish.
The fact that generic pop singers apparently win these contests and the fact that some are constantly linked with various Evangelical Christian groups with links to Hillsong make me suspicious of the motives.

P.S Guy is from Paradise Church in Adelaide. Same thing as Hillsong in my extremely cynical mind.

Youtube

- Lionel Richie live at Acer Arena Sydney 2011 - All Night Long (with Guy Sebastian)

Six studio albums
five #1 singles

Sang for Oprah, who requested he perform at the private send off party for her guests, she stayed for hours
Wanted him on the show but they couldn't fix schedules

Performed with Black Eyed Peas in LA, at Peapod Benefit, where he had the preGrammy guests so still they could have heard a pin drop, so we were advised after (NOT by a member etc)

Questlove spotted him and asked him to perform the following night with The Roots band at the The Roots Jam Session Pre-Grammy's.

He then went to Washington Embassy and performed there

flew back to LA and performed for Barry Gibb (did a special for him and the Bee Gees songs) and G-Day USA

flew back the next day with the Today team and
YouTube - Guy Sebastian on TODAY Show on Australia Day 2011

then performed as the headline act for AusSounds - for instance
Guy Sebastian "Dynamite / DJ Falling in Love Again

-----------
And as for the rest - its a known fact that there's one anti-Guy fan who has posted continual anti / hate stuff since 2004 under at the VERY least five IDs.

Interestingly, on the site we first became aware he was 'one person' he hasn't been back since December 2010 - and nor has all the other IDs we knew he was.
