Best read in ages! LOL. Loved it! But… it pains me to ask, but … am I the only one who finds Wes a little hard to watch on tv? I mean, maybe I’m just doing the “tall poppy” thing?

Didn’t anyone notice that Jermaine seemed … is ’slow’ too harsh? He was asked questions and he didn’t seem to be able to concentrate hard enough to answer them. I agree, the touchdown moment was very limp. Looked like Marcia was trying to coach him, but it was too hard so she joined in and he stood there looking dopey. Too bizarre.

My highlights were… Jermaine Jackson’s reconstructed (with what looked like boot polish) hairline.. and during the limp “touchdown” Marcia went to ‘lay some skin’ on Jermaine, but he just left her hanging, that was gold!

First, anonymous - who are YOU to criticise Jess for her mere factual commentary on RLC's fake tan application, when you can't even be bothered typing a name in the field?!? Show yourself!

That group performance was gold. Gold I tells you. Wes is the man. Full of soul, with less sole after that perfectly crafted moonwalk.

At the other end of the spectrum, Teale is killing me. JUST LEAVE!

And yes, the Marcia-God has met her match in Jermaine. Seems like they could have locked glazed, bloodshot eyes over a greener than green tea at a quiet Amsterdam cafe... hmmm?

my captcha is but mur dick

anyway, anonymous. that wasnt very nice. i think you're dumb. (now compare what i just wrote to jess's ability to write things and see that she is, in fact, very good.)

when wes started dancing, i audibly lol'd, grabbed my phone and texted my idol buddy with LOVE HIM! he was so young talent time, it was amazing. what was also amazing, was the dvd of pugwall that i watched earlier in the day. i forgot that jenny's singing voice was so angelic, while her speaking voice is poor suburb ocker. its great!

Its Jess’s smart arse commentary that makes for interesting reading. I for one would need to prop my eyelids open with match sticks and hot coals up my arse to stand a serious and measured “analysis” of Australian Idol. Anyone with half a brain couldn’t give a fuck about it except to rip it up for comedy gold.

Just so you know Jess McGuire, Michael Jackson’s 1991 hit is called ‘Black OR White’ not ‘Black AND White’. I think the sarcasm is dripping a little too thickly in this article, try to not be so ‘tabloid’ in your writing in the future. Also, where the hell did that stab at Ricki Lee’s apparently fake-tan come from anyway? I doubt it is your place to criticise considering she’s bound to earn quadruple your yearly salary.

ED: Are you insane? Ricki-Lee earns WAY more than quadruple my yearly salary – I get about twelve dollars a week and a can of Red Bull. I’m sorry that mentioning Ricki-Lee’s strangely dark tan upset you. I love that Coulter! Be comforted by the fact I’ll never be a success and she is awesomely hot. Now stop crying. I’ve corrected the Black Or White mistake – I am familiar with the song, but I am also easily distracted and absentminded and lacking in professionalism.

My highlight was Peter Harvey’s mailbag on a completely different channel. I’m sorry but I just can’t bring myself to watch this show anymore…
