Soapstar Superstar 2007

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.

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!

Alan Fletcher has tonight become the latest victim of Soapstar Superstar. He was placed in the bottom two contestants last night along with Tupele Dorgu and tonight was told that he would be leaving the show.

Although it was Tupele’e THIRD TIME in the bottom two, the British public saved her once more and allowed her to perform Kelly Clarkson’s ‘Because Of You’.

So its goodbye to Doctor Carl Kennedy……the granny’s must have gotten tired of voting!

Richard Fleeshman was the viewers’ Soapstar Superstar for 2006 – but who will win the viewers’ vote and take the accolade in the new series of the hit event?

The newest series of Soapstar Superstar launches tomorrow night on ITV1.

Zoe Ball hosts the new series that will see some of the UK’s favourite soap stars take to the stage nightly and go head-to-head to become a singing superstar.

Facing the ultimate sing-off in 2007 is:

Gemma Atkinson (Lisa Hunter – Hollyoaks In The City)
Antony Cotton (Sean Tully – Coronation Street)
Jane Danson (Leanne Battersby – Coronation Street)
Tupele Dorgu (Kelly Crabtree – Coronation Street)
Alan Fletcher (Dr Karl Kennedy – Neighbours)
Leon Lopez (Scott Windsor – Emmerdale)
Mark Furze (Eric ‘Ric’ Dalby – Home & Away)
Elaine Lordan (Lynne Hobbs – EastEnders)
Verity Rushworth (Donna Windsor-Dingle – Emmerdale)
Hayley Tamaddon (Delilah Dingle – Emmerdale)
Matthew Wolfenden (David Metcalf – Emmerdale)

And the plot thickens as it will be the viewers who have the ultimate control; not only do they vote to save their favourite soapstar they also get to choose the songs they will be singing.

With commentary from our panel of expert judges and a rehearsal schedule that sees each artist learning their selected song in just
24 hours, the drama won’t be confined to the stage.

Tupele Dorgu (Kelly Crabtree, Coronation Street)

What’s your favourite music style?
Just regular pop, you know, a bit of everything really, but mainly just chart stuff.

What’s your earliest singing memory?
Probably singing ‘He’s got the Whole World in his Hands’ at school. Oh, I used to love that. And ‘Ladybird’.

Who would you compare yourself with musically?
Musically, probably, Eminem, with a bit of Elton John, Michael Jackson, a bit of Neil Diamond in there. Oh yeah, that’s me!

What can the audience expect from you?
Big hair. Hopefully really big hair. That’s kind of it really. Obviously, the general singing and performing and stuff.

Do you think you’ll have a good stage presence?
I can’t say that, can I? I have no idea, I’m not going to sell myself.

What do you think Kelly would say about you doing the show?
“Who does she think she is?� She would probably think that she could do better.

How do you think your friends and family would react?
Oh, I think they’d be excited. I think they’d be really pleased that I’m doing something like this and, you know, nervous for me. My family would be nervous, my friends would be dead excited because they love all that kind of stuff.

Did you watch last year?
I did, yes. I went to see it a couple of times. I actually had a bit of a nightmare. Me and my flatmate were supposed to go and see it, I think it was the final and I was out and I told Debbie when to be ready by and she said she sat there in her pyjamas with her soup watching it and it came on TV and she phoned me and went, ‘we’re supposed to be there’. She was really upset and we had to get ready in like ten minutes and we managed to catch the second half. So hopefully, that won’t happen this year.

What are your top three artists and albums?
Probably Beyonce, the first solo album. I like Corinne Bailey Rae at the moment. Who else do I like? Bit of Take That, got to have a bit of Take That.

Who would you compare yourself with musically?
Musically, I’ve absolutely no idea. No one that wonderful. I don’t know. I mean, I love a lot of styles, but it’s whether I could fulfil them. I mean, I love Beyonce’s style, I love Corinne Bailey Rae’s style, but I’d never for a minute think that I was anything like them. If I was an artist and I was very talented in that department, I’d like to be one of those kind of people.

Favourite artists?
Shirley Bassey.

It has been revealed that Zoe Ball will be the new host of this years series of Soapstar Superstar.

Zoe said: “As a huge soap fan – I have watched Coronation Street since I was a little girl and I watched it with my Nan – I was a huge fan of Soapstar Superstar last year.

“I nearly wet my pants when I was asked to host it this time. I can’t wait to get all the inside gossip at the show and see who’s the prima donna, who’s the saucy one, who’s the trouble- causer.

“Of course I won’t be showing any bias, although as I’ve already mentioned I am a huge Coronation Street fan!

“I am very excited about the show – the only thing you won’t catch me doing is singing – because I have the worst singing voice ever!�

Executive Producer Rachel Ashdown said: “This year we have some singers in the competition who have never sung on television before so there are sure to be some great surprises.

“You might think you know the soap stars from what you see in your favourite soaps but you will be blown away by just how talented this bunch is.

“This is the show were the viewers really are in control and ultimately they will pick their winner.

“I think the soap stars are really excited, but with the show going live on January 5th they better not be doing too much shouting at New Year’s Eve!

“There aren’t many shows as ambitious as this on television but we had a brilliant team who made it last year and have come back for more this time.â€?

Soapstar Superstar will be shown on ITV1, Friday 5th January 2007, 9:00 PM to 10:30 PM. For the full list of who is taking part click here
