Countdown To Guy Sebastian’s Cherry Popping – One (Sexless) Night To Go!

1:15PM Jess McGuire | ARGHHHHHHHHHHHH! This is so terribly exciting and romantic! Guy Sebastian and long-time love Jules Egan are due to get hitched tomorrow, which means tomorrow night is gonna be the love bomb for the Assemblies Of God sponsored pair! Due to wed his sweetheart Jules Egan in Sydney tomorrow, original Idol Sebastian flew home to Adelaide last weekend to celebrate his last weekend as a single Guy. The loved-up couple will marry in a lavish ceremony this weekend – Egan flanked by no less than six bridesmaids – with the big day exclusively covered by a women’s magazine. But what about the big night? Who has the rights to that, huh – Woman’s Day or New Idea? A better investment than Wayne Carey’s “Oh, she walked into my wine glass, accidents do happen!” cover story, if you ask me. I know I’ll be lining up to purchase my copy of the nuptials coverage.

Guy Sebastian’s Christian Rock Wedding Extravaganza

11:56AM Clem Bastow | Ever since Guy Sebastian aka Australia’s Most Famous Virgin announced his impending nuptials to long-term girlfriend Jules Egan, the question that has been on everyone’s mind is how long will they stay at the reception before going back to the hotel to root like rabbits on Viagra who will sing at the wedding? Well, it looks as though Australia’s Third Or Fourth Most Famous Virgin (the #2 spot is occupied by Dean Geyer), Matt Corby, is set to do the honours. Perhaps he could serenade them with Damien Rice’s The Blower’s Daughter? We don’t believe we’ve heard him do that one before. The soul star will be humming the wedding march when he ties the knot with Egan in Sydney on May 20, but it’s 2007 Idol star Corby who’ll be centre stage during the reception. Both are members of the Assemblies of God’s Paradise Community Church – where Sebastian and Egan met in Adelaide 13 years ago – and Corby has formed a close friendship with the Idol alumni since his own challenging run through the Channel Ten contest. “Challenging”? Is that what they call “beloved by mums, nannas, little girls and gays” these days? Either way, now is as good a time as ever to indulge in a little celebratory contemporary Christian music, in celebration of the imminent removal of the shrink-wrap over his knob joyous occasion, it’s Michael W. Smith’s totally righteous 1990 power ballad, Place In This World! Seriously, it’s as good as Bolton. Over the jump, Christian soldiers… More »

Don’t Make Guy Sebastian Have To Choke A Bitch…

9:28AM Clem Bastow | If you had been thinking that Australia’s most popular virgin and Good Christian was fair game for shouted-out insults, assuming that he was too nice to do anything about it, think again! What’s more, Guy now deals with unpleasantness in a way that is so nice, people don’t know what to do, and end up like this. Well, maybe not exactly, but one charming schoolboy was surprised to find Sebastian having a nice, friendly word to him after said schoolboy shouted “faggot” at the former Australian Idol. “I caught up to him and he was laughing like he was the coolest kid around,” Sebastian told Confidential yesterday. “I just put my arm around his shoulder and said, ‘Mate, that’s not only uncalled for but it’s really offensive and you could get seriously hurt if you said that to the wrong person. “He was trembling and I didn’t want to be aggressive at all, I was just glad to have taken the moment away from him.” We’d like to see Guy take this one step further and become a Walking Tall-style vigilante who goes around sorting people out for their misdemeanours in homophobia, racism and sexism. Gonna insult someone? Watch out: The Sebastian is right behind you. And Samuel L. Jackson can play him in the Hallmark Channel movie of his life, with Ryan from The O.C. in a breakout role as the gay man Guy befriends after saving him from certain death at Mardis Gras. More »

Guy “Booker T” Sebastian To Tour With The MGs

11:11AM Jess McGuire | Lucky ol’ Guy Sebastian. Not only does he now have a use-by date for his virginity, he’s also going to performing concerts around the country with legendary dudes the MGs! It isn’t often you hear eye-witness accounts of Elvis Presley breaking his hand trying to karate chop blocks of wood in his kitchen. Such stories, however, were just some of the privileges granted to Australia’s favourite idol, Guy Sebastian, when he recorded The Memphis Album with the soul band the MGs in Memphis last year. Next month the MGs arrive in Australia to tour with Sebastian, singing songs such as Soul Man, In The Midnight Hour, Knock On Wood and (Sittin’ On) The Dock Of The Bay; songs that were co-written by MG member Steve Cropper and have been performed by music legends Presley, Otis Redding and Wilson Pickett. While Sebastian admits performing the legendary songs is a daunting task, he feels soul music is “my area to shine”. Soul music – and your wedding night, good sir. More »

You Know Your Reality Talent Quest Is In Trouble When Even The Nice, Charitable Christian Says It’s Boring

6:55PM Clem Bastow | Guy Sebastian has bitten the hand that fed him his “stardom” all those years ago, joining in the increasingly loud chorus of detractors who reckon this year’s Australian Idol was the worst so far. Obviously none of these people are wrong, per se, but Guy? We thought he’d be the last person to chime in. And he hasn’t stopped at providing some gentle, Christian constructive criticism, going so far as to declare this season “boring“. How the mighty have fallen! Guy, what did they do to you in Memphis?? “There were a lot of people who were quite calculated in their use of the show and quite blatantly used it to get a platform for their careers,” Sebastian said. “I think because of that, some of the essence of the show was lost.” “There were some people who just … kept sticking to their same styles week in, week out, which is a bit boring and self-indulgent.” Hmm, Guy, could you be talking about fellow churchgoers Matt Corby and Ben McKenzie, perchance? He does have a point, though – what with his springing from Stevie Wonder to Prince to, er, Rogers and Hammerstein, the last thing you could have described Guy’s Idol running sheet as would have been “boring”!
