The next elimination is on Saturday on BBC1.
The BBC3 shows are just half-hour long updates on what has taken place in the Academy in the past 24 hours. They tend not to be at all interesting, there aren't many fireworks in the house. Plus there tend to be a lot of painful group sing-songs to endure when watching it on BBC3. |

Rach we need you!
Alex is singing Everybody hurts on Saturday. It's a great song for her and it's going to be amazing! There will be a rehearsal tomorrow.
If you have digital, satellite or freeview it's like watching Big Brother, I'm sure you can get lots of Alex! What a pity I only have five channels on my dodgy second hand telly! darje and everyone who's interested, this page contains download links of three short videos of Alex. They are no good quality, we have to wait for Rach. http://forum.digitalspy.co.uk/board/...5&pagenumber=2 |

Nice One Oasischuan !
I zapped onto Fame Idol Acdemy - the Rivals ha whatever ?!?!?! NOT !
And thougt was I the only one who saw the TATU type appeal to Alex ... Behold the new queen of angst is born ... And Paris is PANTS ... my brain started to pool on the floor after I saw the rest of the drivel .... Who the HELL is the XENA type 80's chick ?? Scary Mary !!! PS Loved Alex lil' smile straight at camera on her close up during "Beautiful" ... Priceless !! |

Hehe, how are you?
Alex is the favourite at the moment. She never received a negative comment from the teachers so far. For someone like Richard Park and Carrie Grant, this is amazing. She makes every song her own. She's fantastic, original and refreshing, so different from other bland cheesy pub singers. Even Louis Walsh said she 'has everything, a real real star' and is 'definitely going to get a record deal'. Don't even dream about getting Alex to join Girl's Aloud, Louis!

Well, who knows, maybe she'll be the first one to break free from that vicious circle of "popidolness" and have her own thing going? The only one who tried to do that is Darius, in my opinion, but he's not good enough. All the rest are puppets of the system, they cover every popular 60s track they've heard of and sell a million records.
She could be the new Tracy Chapman or Suzanne Vega or something. Though I don't think her voice is suitable for the repertoire that goes on with the show. |

My friend recorded Alex singing "Everybody Hurts" for me. For some reason the video doesn't seem very compatible with my VCR and/or the tape is wearing out so the quality isn't too great. Anyway, I still capped it.
Get it at this ftp - address - 24.77.103.33 username - tatu password - tatu Port - 4321 Folder - Uploads Filename - Alex - Everybody Hurts.mpg Enjoy!!! |

After tonight's show, I'm still suitably impressed. I mean, anybody who can make me enjoy a Coldplay song must be talented.

has anyone been watching this recently? i don't get bbc3 so i've only managed to catch a couple of the live shows, but i gotta say Alex's version of Tainted Love rocked!!! apparently she's the bookies favourite to win as well.
as i don't get bbc3 (that's so annoying! LOL) i haven't managed to see any of the day to day stuff, and i've just read that there's an interesting love triangle developing between peter, alex and carolynne. also that alex and carolynne have started creating their own code to communicate in!!?? was just intrigued and wondered if anyone had been watching it. although the likelyhood is pretty slim ... bbc3 and all that. there's a vid of her performing tainted love on the link at the top of this page it's pretty good you should check it out, only little. |

I'm reviving this thread, hehe
just to remind you that the final instalment of Fame Academy is tonight at 9:35 p.m. ( in about half an hour from now ) on BBC 1. Alex and Alistair go head-to-head and I really hope that Alex wins not only coz she's far better but also because I placed a little bet on her a long time ago, 20 pounds at 6 to 1.
Of course the latest odds had her down to as little as 1 to 3, so she should be able to clinch this one. Odds for her to have the Xmas no 1 are also available Only disantantage that I see? well, she's a girl |

well, it's simple, she has the voice , my dear...the others, don't. I heard that she's nervous for tonite and that is a good sign
I think that rendition of "Imagine" was very good and it's not one of my favourite songs as that teacher said. I'd like to listen to that again. And she can even shine singing next to Daniel Bedingfield, which is not easy. Hmm, now that I called to vote for her I heard her name clearly. When I was calling to vote for Tatu, all I could hear was "your vote has been registered". Well, I just reminded meself I liked her song too. hehehe, she did it, congrats. And to you guys for spotting her |

I think the other girl was better than Alistair bloke too but for two girls to be in a final it'd be too optimistic. At least Alex won... if she didn't it'd be a first-rate scandal

Hello guys! I'm back!!
Glad to see that you haven't forgot Alex!
I've spent so much time at Digital Spy's FA forum when I couldn't log on here... and I spent too much money on voting Alex -- it pays off! Thanx Rach! I found a few great sites: http://www.alexparksonline.com/ http://alexparks.lunarpages.com/aly/ And of course: http://www.eddietalbot.pwp.blueyonde...rks/index.html Well done Alex for winning FA2!! |
