Now That's What I Call Reality Pop

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

I tried this on ILM during the Rough Guide era - the object being to create a compilation CD that would showcase the best of reality TV pop. The rules being:

- only 1 track per artist
- only artists and bands who formed/rose to stardom through a reality TV show
- only ace pop please.
- nothing pre 2000 (interesting cases of pre-Popstars/Pop Idol RTV shd be cited in the comments though)

So help me out. I've done the easy ones for starters:

Girls Aloud - No Good Advice
Will Young - Leave Right Now
Kelly Clarkson - Since You Been Gone
Hear'Say - Pure And Simple
Gareth Gates - Anyone Of Us (Stupid Mistake)
...

Over to you! (Foreign entries particularly welcome)

Ashley Parker Angel - I'm Better (so much better than Let You Go)
Agnes Carlsson - Stranded (Swedish Idol winner)
Darin - Money For Nothing (Swedish Idol 2nd place - written by Robyn)
