Soapstar Superstar 2007

Soapstar Superstar winner Antony Cotton has impressed all the right people at ITV this week.

Late last year plans for a new chat show hosted by Bradley Walsh were scrapped after a dire pilot episode, but it appears that ITV have now found their man!

An insider said: “Antony is a great performer, a natural showman.

“The amount of public support for him was amazing and made everyone realise just how many fans he has.”

It seems as though Martine McCutcheon has become the new Simon Cowell. Many of the contestants of Soapstar Superstar have had enough of her negative comments and patronising attitude.

A source told The People: “Martine has become a real hate figure among the contestants. She always had something negative to say whether it was about their singing or their outfits.

“After every bitchy comment the contestant would head backstage and slag her off to the others. They just couldn’t believe she was being so patronising to them.”

A spokesman confirmed: “Some contestants have mentioned Martine’s comments saying they found her patronising.”

Riding high on her success in Soapstar Superstar 2007, things are looking up for Gemma Atkinson.

After her spin off show ‘Hollyoaks In The City’ was cancelled, things looked bad for Gemma who played Lisa Hunter in the show. But gemma has revealed to The Sun that she will be returning to the main Hollyoaks show in the near future.

She stated: “I got the call this week to say I was going back to the main show.

“I haven’t got a clue what’s in store for Lisa yet as I haven’t read the scripts. I’m looking forward to it though.�

What a shock! Antony Cotton has won Soapstar Superstar 2007.

I like Antony….who wouldn’t? But compared to Hayley Tamaddon and last years winner Richard Fleeshman he doesn’t quite make the grade. He has loads of personality and he has a decent voice, but Hayley has a fabulous voice, with energy to burn. I can’t help think that the wrong person won, but then the people of Britain did vote for him, so who am I to criticise!

An incredible evening, hosted by Zoe BAll, of the most outstanding performances by the three finalists who had to sing three songs each and dance in their final appearance while singing.

Corrie’s Tupele (in the bottom two for the fifth time)and Antony Cotton, went head to head with Antony saved by public vote to join Hayley Tamaddon and Mark Furze in the semi finals.  Tomorrow night only two will be battling it out in the final to win the Soapstar Superstar competition.

The contestants have been trained by the Vocal Academy based in Manchester with judges Chris Cowey and Michael Ball helping with West end performances and the dancing.

Although all three stars were outstanding, once again Hayley stole the show, especially with Janet Jackson’s ‘Together again’.  All the contestants have been very fortunate to have the outstanding training given to them throughout the contest by Soapstar Superstar, as we have watched their growth and radical improvement day by day.  They have had to put in 13 hours of training a day, with dress rehearsals at 6pm and the live show at 9pm and still fit in interviews.

It has been said that Antony Cotton could have his own variety show as he is such a talented, versatile and entertaining person.

Mark Furze could make a profession of his music anywhere in the world.

Hayley is an absolute superstar with her beautiful, pure voice, passion and all round talent.  She is the favourite to win.

The judges have been fantastic too.  Chris Cowey, Billy Sammeth, Michael Ball and Martine Mc Cutcheon have entertained us with their witty remarks, constructive criticism and all round good humour.  The judging has been of a high standard.

The introduction of dancing with the semi-finalists third and last song, was a brilliant idea and most entertaining.  Mark Furze was not very enthused by the idea and did not give it his best, although all three were exhausted after the long day of training. Having said that, all three were brilliant.

Tomorrow night at the earlier time of 1745 and later at 21.20 for the crowning of either Hayley or Antony, we will be fortunate enough to see both these stars perform once again on UTV.

Well its the penultimate night of this years Soapstar Superstar series and tomorrow night we will find out who will be crowned the king or Queen of soaps.

If you are watching the semi final show tonight and want to share your opinions about the performances, or find out what the rest of the British public thinks, then jump over to our FORUM and get chatting!

Soapstar Superstar. Fabulous Hayley Tamaddon was the star of the show tonight with the beautiful Gemma Atkinson voted out.
It is anyone’s game now as the voting results are very close. Tupelo Dorgu went head to head with Gemma tonight with Tupela staying another night.
Friday will be semi finals night with Mark Furze (safe thanks to Gemma), Hayley Tamaddon and either Tupelo or Antony Cotton.  Both performed exceptionally well, as did Mark and Hayley and anyone could have landed in the bottom two to suffer the 24 wait to see who will be voted out and then, no recovery time, go on stage to open the show.  (Heartless.)
David Gest was his usual amusing self and brought a bit of humour to the show as did Antony when hitting back at a judge’s remarks. All the contestants were brilliant but  Hayley’s performance, especially her first number, was pure beauty giving chills and goose bumps. What an amazing voice and performance. Even Zoë Ball, hosting the show, remarked on getting goose bumps from Hayley’s powerful, emotional and stirring singing.
The contestants will be dancing in the Friday night Semi Finals as well as singing.
A recent survey of Reality viewers showed Soapstar Superstar with five million ITV viewers on their launch night, Just the two of us (now finished) with 4.3 million BBC1 viewers and BB on their first Friday night with 3.9 million. On Channel 4.

On Saturday BB dropped to 2.8 viewers and Soapstar Superstar (finishes Saturday) got 4.3 million. And Just the Two of Us got tops with 4.6 million.  Competition has been tough amongst the reality shows.

Tonight Soapstar Superstar went all West End and each of the contestants had to sing a popular song from a musical.

Hayley was give ‘On My Own’ from Les Miserables which is a huge song, and a really moving one if done right.

She did it right. it wasn’t just her singing. Her performance was spellbinding and extremely emotional. I was captivated when she was singing, she hit one or two bum notes, but it hardly mattered. I can really see this girl getting more work in this line after the show ends, she is wasted on Emmerdale!

Tupele Dorgu has survived being in the bottom two contestants for the fourth time running! Meaning that Gemma Atkinson has been the latest celebrity to leave Soapstar Superstar.

Many thought that Gemma could take the winners trophy at the end oif the show, as she has millions of fans all around the UK, she has the looks and she can sing…the whole package it seems. However in the end it was not enough.

I would have preferred Gemma to go through to the Soapstar Superstar final than Tupele, I would prefer to watch Gemma perform than Tupele. I feel that Gemma has more of a spark while Tupele often leaves me cold…..But I have picked losers since the beginning of this show. Who would listen to me!
