Thumbs down wat eva happened to da popstars?

u guyz must all realise every popstar from the show, has neva made it big and neva will? the show just hypes up australia for awhile, than soon enuff... the popstars are left stranded with no fans, no publicity etc.
Bardot- split up... they also were in a bit of debt from their first single... the stupid t.v show gave them a bad manager
scandalis?- where the hell have they dissapeared to?
That single singer guy- i give him 3 months before people start forgetting his name, i dont even know his name.

i only eva watched the 1st popstars show, after that i felt ashamed. and popstars is not a good way to reach super stardom... u'd think people will start realising it if popstars 4 comes out

maybe u could earn a bit of cash though...

"popstars" are to find pawns for the music industry buddy. i wouldnt even say "music" industry, more the "pop" genre. but the industry's been doing such a thing for a long while, just never really televised i don't believe. spice girls came to fame like that. and all those friggin boy bands, utterly manufactured =)

in terms of aussie "popstars", i wouldnt say all of them were a complete failure, there were those who thought a lil, had a bit of common sense and smarts and managed to use popstars as a stepping stone to what they wanted to do. actually, only one case comes to mind. that red head from bardot, kate underwood i think? she capitalised on popstars to virtually immediately jus lash after their first single to do what she really wanted to do, which is a pretty mellow chilled dance style. didnt think her first single "come back to me" was half bad =) but ur right, where dF have "Scandal-US" *cough* gone? and like u, i havent even an idea of what the single popstar's guy name is. he looks a country bumpkin though.

funny how that popstar reject who tried for scandulous is bigger than either popstar[s] atm though. that rnb dude, u all know who i'm on about eh?

ohh true, true... Selwyn is his name i think... he has more talent than the rest of em. oh yeh and that katie underwood... she left Bardot before they decided to split up... must of seen it coming
btw, that blonde chik in Bardot ended up being the model for this bra company, but i dunno if that is wat u would call using a 'stepping stone' from bardot

Popstars was good simply because it exposed for the masses how shallow and greedy the music industry is.

Nothing more, nothing less.

Popstars is a load of manufactured shite! But I must admit, I was addicted to the first series. It's compelling viewing...watching all those auditions, so many people humiliated on tv, I couldn't resist...

I think that Katie Underwood was the most successful out of all of them. The clever girl used the group to get ahead and then dropped them to star in that musical (which ironically never went ahead, but she still has more success than them all).

As for Scandal'us...I occasionally see them in the gossip columns of magazines; the girls of the group dressing like tarty hookers, as usual.

And that guy... He was such a pansy...and the lyrics to that song he wrote were atrocious!

Hahaha,

It's true though, popstars was a load of shit. I recently heard that song by i think his name is Scott Cain or something the most recent popstar winner, didn't sound like talent. And this guy acts like the biggest dickhead, with the money he got out of that track (hopefully not very much) he needs to buy a gun with a couple of bullets and end it all.

hahaha! I think the only good thing that Popstars contributed to the world was attractive girls for the guys to look at.

As for the last popstar (that guy)...he certainly wasn't much to look at from my point of view...I'm glad he has disappeared for ever.
