Battle Of The Popstars

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

Details

"We pit 32 stars against each other in a series of head-to-head battles, in the form of video clips. During each 'fight', the viewers phone in and vote for their favourite pop star from each round."

Sounds familiar!!

NB I was all "wow I'm going to watch this" then I thought it's pretty inevitable Robbie W will win it. Though maybe not if enough people have heard Rudebox.

I caught 10 seconds of this last night, looks like the rubbest show ever. And I *like* rubbish telly.

I watched all of it. For a while I thought there was a good chance of a shock result brought about by organised Cher fans being the only people watching it, but alas no.

I watched the first hour (at end of which they were still doing the first round battles), then I switched over to 24 for a bit (this series worryingly racist) then Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy.

Semi final and final results pl?

Semi final: Elvis beat Take That. Queen beat Beatles.

Final: Elvis beat Queen.

Thanks!

You forgot to add on FT that C5's popnite also included the movie S Club Seeing Double! (which was quite good but made me wonder: whither Hannah and Tina's solo careers?)
