Bottom three bring the rock on Rock Star: Supernova

Tonight on Rock Star: Supernova, the bottom three rockers all managed to rock, at least harder than they had been. But we're getting ahead of ourselves, we have a nice long recap to go through before we get there. Poor Dusty missed most of the show, as he had to help a friend search for a missing kitten, but luckily he'll get the joy of hearing the interview section over and over again, as once again I could not keep up with the fast pace of Rock Star! I was fine until they started out with Toby Rand. His accent is just terrible to try to understand! From there I just sort of gave up until they talked to Dilana.
First up was Brooke Burke, happily announcing that the voting was up from last week, and was double what it was at this point last year. Dave was glad to see some of the contestants brought the rock to their performances last night.
After a recap of last night, we were off to the mansion for a very fast recap of what happened after the show. Toby was first up, saying he thought he let himself down. Toby wanted to do something emotional but he ended up not being happy with it. He was bummed that he didn't think of the impact of the song beforehand. Meanwhile Skipper, Dana Andrews, was upset that Zayra Alvarez nailed a ballad, but Skipper herself got a Celine Dion comment. She wants something she can really dig into, like Alanis or Pat. Skipper whines that she pumps her arms and stomps and gets in people's faces and why aren't I a rocker too like my mommy Groupie Barbie. Okay so I may have added on a few words she didn't use, but you get the idea. Dilana, being the extra nice Scary Chick that she is, offers to help out her friend Skipper. Skipper jumps at the chance to worship at Scary's feet. Dilana tells Skipper she needs to stop doing the cutesy little walk and open her legs (something Dana took literally by the way, see picture of her performance). Scary tells Skipper to stop worrying about being beautiful. Dilana got her point across when Dana (and the other rockers) watched their performances on v-cast. Dana watched, with Storm and Dilana pointing out the problems of the performance. Dana said that Storm Large and Dilana were like her mammas, trying to make her a better performer. Lukas Rossi, Toby, and the Broodster himself, Ryan Star, watched Dana's performance and poked fun at it. Ryan said she should be on a pop show (probably referring to American Idol, which they can't name). Toby, in a mumble worthy of Lukas, muttered something that ended in "What the hell".
Back at the show, Dave Navarro talked to Ryan about his comments about Dana. Ryan said he is starting to be more honest and he knows it will come out onstage. All the performers are amazing, they toasted to it the first night, says Brooding Star, but it's a rock show, not a pop show. Broodster says that he wants to be on a rock show and is embarrassed when he sees that, which earns him a shocked "wow" from Dave and a round of boos from the audience.
Dana responds that it's an opinion, but she wishes Broodster would have had a backbone and told her when she asked him earlier and said it all to her face. Brooding babe replied that he warned her about taking the song, calling it a bad decision, but when Skipper didn't want his help, he stopped helping. That isn't spineless says Broodster. Dave was concerned about poor little Skipper, wondering how all the criticism is effecting her. Skipper tells the guys not to worry (she is made of plastic, after all) as watching the videos was the best thing for her. The comments finally got through her plastic skull and she had an "OH" moment. Oh, and Skipper says she's going to knock their teeth in. Dave likes that idea.
Dave moves on to Dilana, wondering why she's helping out a competitor during a competition. Dilana replies that she's a loving person and she cares about the people around her. She's honored to be among the rockers and isn't threatened by them (duh, she's skyscraper, while everyone else is a cottage). Dilana considers Skipper a friend and is honest to her friends even if the answer hurts. Dilana told her to be edgy, not beautiful and sweet. Everyone knows Skipper is beautiful and sweet, but she needs to show her dirty side.
Then we were off to a boring exchange between Gilby Clarke and Toby about the emotions of the songs. And another boring exchange between Jason Newsted and Josh Logan about the whole song choice battle. The encore this week went to Magni, though Tommy Lee gave a shoutout to Jill Gioia, who made him a believer, and to Dilana who crushed it. Magni performed excellently once again.
Then were were finally to the meat of the show. Groupie Barbie, Skipper, and Broodster were all in the bottom three at the end of the show, and later Zayra and Josh joined them. DAve was surprised that Groupie and Josh hadn't done anything to step up their game, after all the group has been telling everyone to rock it.
First in the bottom is Jenny Galt. Tommy, with his usual innuendo, told Jenny that he hates it when it goes soft (I'm sure he knows about that), and wants to go hard. Groupie sang Stone Temple Pilot's Vaseline, and didn't looking like the usual Groupie Barbie. This time she looked like Avril Lavigne in her 30s, trying desperately to recapture her youth and hipness. She's too cutesy, and I headbang more realisticly that she did. Did anyone notice the "WTF" look on Jason's face? His looks are priceless.
Next in the bottom was Skipper, who wanted to show them her rocker chick side with Sass Jordan's High Road Easy. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Skipper can rock a bit. But she's still darn hard to take seriously. She still looks like she's playing at being a big bad rocker chick. Gilby mouthed that she was good during the performance.
Last into the bottom three was Josh. Jason told Josh that they know he's talented and they're surprised he's there. Josh says it's because he didn't get nasty enough. Well he got nasty with "Heart Shaped Box" by Nirvana. He beat the crap out of Soccer mom's version (last week?). He didn't beat Jordis Unga's version last year, but it was definitely better and more nasty than that country version of Nirvana he did yesterday.
At decision time, Gibly thanked everyone for their effort. Groupie, he said, started the season strong, but when soft. She brought the edge back, but they weren't sure the vocals are right for them. As for Skipper, Gibly said that she proved that she could sing and really brought the house down. They're not sure if she has what it takes to front the band though. As for Josh, he's talented but they're not sure why it took until tonight to rock. Tommy told Dana she was safe, then made my day by kicking out Groupie Barbie. I would have been happier if Skipper had gone too, but one out of two isn't bad. Dave congratulated Groupie, who then spouted some crap about changing and growing. I don't care, I'm just happy she's gone!
It is official – I HATE RYAN! Seriously, the creep is trying to be J.D. and LukAss!
Hey, you are not J.D. Fortune – even though I disliked J.D. - I had to admit that he was a talented chap!
Lukas mumbles, but he own the freaking stage – he can afford to be arrogant, because at least one can say – His performances are really good!
Sure, he has his issues and I hated the fact that he with Toby (at least now I can state I have a reason to hate them) zeroed in on the youngest performer and made fun of her!
In my book, this is not anything great – it is a sign of flexing weak muscles! Y’all want to pick on someone – go pick on Dilana and Storm – they just might castrate y’all – what am I saying? Y’all already act like castrated men!
It is insulting to be in a competition with Dana? Leave! There’s a good option, you freaking SOB!
Ryan before pointing a finger at someone – remember three fingers would point right back at you!
I want Ryan to leave before Dana and I urge the readers not to vote for Ryan next week!
Well, do what you like!
However, I am genuinely P!SSED OFF!
I am not surprised that Barbie Groupie left – in retrospect; I think Dana managed to shut Lukas, Toby and Ryan with her performance!
By the way, the least known member of GnR was really rude to Dana on performance night!
He was like, “Why did you choose that song, Matt?” Furthered by saying that Dana can never be a member of Supernova – I wonder why in the world they chose her as one of the contestants in that case.
Dave tried to apply balm on the bruises by stating – that if she was on American Idol, Taylor Hicks would be Dana’s janitor!
Now, wait a minute, I don’t want Hicks’ fans to flock here, telling us as to how God like Hicks is!
I am quoting Dave – go complain to him, if you must!
I think since Dana was compared to an Idol wannabe – along with Gilby’s harsh critique – Ryan must have thought that his words would come as no surprise as he was agreeing with Gilby!
However, what he misses is the fact that Supernova don’t give a rat’s arse as to what he has to say!
From whatever little I have read on other boards – I don’t think anyone thought that Ryan did anything right!
He is facing major backlash!
I was so happy that Dana was the first contestant told that she was safe – in your faces – Skunk Boy, Toby (Have to think of a name for him) and Brooding Star!
Jenny (Barbie Groupie) – Best Luck – I hardly knew you!
The Core Of Man's Spirit Comes From New Experiences!
Two points that apparently went straight from my lips to Curlio's ears last night:
--Groupie Barbie is a serious Avril Lavigne wannabe. And it's super ridiculous and sad because she's about ten years too old to be Avril Lavigne plus who would really want to be Avril Lavigne anyway? I'd be kelly clarkson if we're having you must be a pop princess day.
--Josh gets the most improved award. I'd much rather watch him sing that song than Soccer Mom, but it did make me miss Jordis a little bit too. What ever happened to her?
I think Skipper's main problem is that she doesn't understand how to be a rock chick without being disgustingly sexual. While everyone loves a sexy rock singer (male or female), too many female singers are all sex and not enough grit, emotion, strength. I think that's why we're all so crazy for Dilana (and why, on a personal note, I totally dig Zayra)--she shows a way to be a woman in rock and roll that doesn't depend on her boobies and butt. Poor Skipper doesn't understand that when the band says 'we want you to rock', that means be tougher and bolder, not be more trashy. She'll be back in the bottom again, soon to be hitting the road (in her pink plastic RV).
I think Josh got a good wake up call and he should, if he's smart, manage to avoid the bottom for a least a few more weeks now that he's figured out what the band wants from him (we'll call it pulling a Phil Ritchie, since that seems to be what happened with him). I'm glad because he certainly has a decent voice and if he can really unleash a performance he'll be worth having around for a while.
Ryan and Jill Goia, hope you're not getting too comfortable in that Rockstar Mansion. If I were either, I'd start moving my stuff out of the dressers and into my suitcase now . . .
Last thing--just so everybody knows, I'm the member distorting the poll so that Zayra always has about fifteen percent of the vote to win. It's just one vote, ME!
edit: Nicole - 2006-07-20 08:54:15 GMT - see above
Skipper (Dana) won me over with her performance last night (though it may have been her boots). The girl can rock. Should she be fronting Supernova? Probably not, but I'll be behind her all the way as she tries.
Josh clearly is not in his element as he tries to be edgier. He’s no Donny Osmond, but he’s also mighty far from Ozzy. Actually, as I think about it, he is a lot like Donny.
And on a side note, I think we have been seeing some of Brooke Burke's best work this season. I find myself looking forward to those transitions and commercial breaks. Beauty, class and brains!
AJ, I agree. It's almost as if they upgraded the processor in Brooke-bot. She's seemed less stiff the last couple of weeks.
I'm not gonna knock Ryan too much, though he was a bit of an a$$. But Dana sucked last week. There are no if, ands or buts about it. She just didn't look or sound like she should be on the show. I might have phrased it differently than him.
But, she rallied nicely last night and it was great to see the light bulb go off after she watched the video of her Tuesday night performance. I think she'll continue to improve and may stick around for a couple of more weeks, but in the end won't be right for the band.
I agree with Nicole, Ryan and Jill are likely the next to go, unless someone else screws up big time, maybe Josh or Zayra.
skipper and groupie should have both gone. neither should be fronting a band for three degenerate rockers. hoping zayra, jill and patrice are next...they just don't fit either....now for the guys....I like Magni (he is better week by week) and Josh...Toby has yet to wow...Ryan brooding star is annoying..and phil is forgetable...Skunk boy is a drama queen. Ryan may be a brooding *but skunk boy talks from both ends, my vocals are fine/oh my will I hurt my voice doing that?, I can sing any song on the board/I can't sing a song like that? Well, which is it stinker? Decide because you are really hard to look at! ok maybe the guest had something when he said to send them all home and start over?
Well, Barbie-Skipper ......Skipper-Barbie...........same-same! I think Barbie was 5% better than Skipper, but when when you count the how many head bangs and how many fist pumps, beautiful, gosh not to me, very dis-proportional features, and zero sex appeal at least to a fully grown male. Don't get me wrong there are guys who could for a short time love a shoe or something on that order but I am off the subject! Jenny used phrases like intelligent folks do like "yes actually", just because she was unaware of her professional shortcomings, she didn't seem like a thirteen year old who discovers her bod and dresses like a stripper!
Ryan, or the Broodmaster, what a piece of work. Gee, since I got fully grow-ed( southern word) I quite taking crap off bullies and any bully who picks on even the dim-witted, I would love to kick his a**!
I think the only possible matches for the band are Skunk boy, Scary-Be-atch (I know she is a softie and a great entertainer, with a burn-out voice of course), Gotti's handmaiden, Toby, and Magni! I don't love heavy metal and would much rather go to lilith fair than Ozzfest, oz is okay for comic relief and all but, that kind of stuff is better when you are watching a movie and it is background music for a serial killer running through a crowd.
I love women's music also, as a genre, especially women's alternative. I like women singer and rockers because they are swimming up stream in the business and world and I just don't need a woman to act like a man, just don't. I give up sleeping in the same room with men in the Military!
thanks for the personalized run down. Our
city was hit with a storm last night so our
CBS affiliate starred the weather guy -- We
saw 15 mins. at the beginning of the show.
keep up the commentary...
Was a bit anti-climatic last night. I'm glad Barbie is gone, but really guys, she looks more like the soccer mom than soccer mom. Most soccer mom's are not that hot.
Thought there were several much worse than Josh. He is really good, but he is not what Supernova is looking for.
Oh gee, I am finding that Will and I have soooo much in common! I too am not much into Headbanging Heavy metal. You might catch me at Kiss or Def Leperd Concert, but that is about as heavy as this girl gets. Dilana is the the one I see fronting this band.
And last night as I was watching the show go off, I noticed Skunk Boy's profile. He looks exactly like Clint Howard. Remember him? He is a character player and Ron Howard's brother. He played Leroy on The Andy Griffen show and shows up on VH1 70 's shows now. He also reminds me of Shaka the little monkey guy on Land of the Lost. (I know I have just shown how old I really am!)
If you can't be a good example, then be a horrible warning!
I was pleasantly surprised that Dana did as well as she did last night, but I still don't think she is what this band is looking for and she won't last too much longer. I think the right person went home last night, based only on last night's performances.
This has been a fun show, thanks to all you guys for turning me onto it!!
I do hate to disagree with Wills, but I don't think that Dilana is "acting like a guy". Actually, she kinda reminds me of my idol, Janis Joplin. She is her own person, doesn't give in to sh*t from anyone, confident, artistic, great stage presence, gets me moving and pulls me into every song she sings... what else can I say ... but...
go DILANA!!!
Shellybean said: I noticed Skunk Boy's profile. He looks exactly like Clint Howard.
That's so funny...I said the same thing! I made my son come in and look too. You must be close to my age...remember clint on "Gentle Ben"? He was the annoying kid, you wanted the bear to maul!!
Speaking of Clint Howard, or the best paid regular guy in hollywood........ Credits (note through homely he makes a good living)

Jump on 'Rock Star: Supernova'

SOMEWHERE IN Hollywood there were wannabe pop stars practicing their scales and a snappy comeback to an acidic Englishman should they get chosen to compete on the most popular singing competition in the world.
But elsewhere in Hollywood, the bricks of one hillside mansion were getting shaken down to the mortar by Tommy Lee (Motley Crue drummer), Walnut Creek's Jason Newsted (ex-Metallica bassist) and Gilby Clarke (former guitarist for Guns N' Roses) and hard-core rockers ready to go "Supernova."
The CBS series "Rock Star: Supernova" has rockers competing each week for a spot on the tour bus with Lee, Newsted and Clarke. The winner, chosen through a combination of votes from viewers and the rock trio, will become part of the band at the end of the road.
After a taping of the show on Sunday (the series airs at 9 p.m. Tuesday and Wednesday on CBS), it was time to party with judges and remaining contestants on the show. The bright blue Hpnotiq flowed freely, although the drink of choice was Dos Equis and Jack Daniel's.
It was much more relaxed than earlier in the evening when the rockers were judging the "Supernova" candidates.
"It's not cool to judge people, but that's what you've got to do on this show, so I choose to stay constructive in my criticism so it can help them instead of just trying to make myself look good," Newsted says.
"I can't do it any other way because we're going to be onstage with the person who wins this and we have to be able to tour and go onstage with integrity."
Newsted says he's constantly gathering information on the contestants, even when they don't know he's looking. He wants hard workers, and someone who will fit in well with the band.
This might not qualify Lukas Rossi, who refused to take the mic during the freestyle concert that took place for almost two hours during the late night party.
"If you had asked, if someone saw me walking past and said, 'Hey, Lukas, can you do something for us?' I would have done it," says the Toronto native, who's actually more attractive in person than his insane Hobbit look on the small screen.
Rossi sniffed like a royal turning his nose up at a Wal-Mart shirt when he explained that he "didn't do cover songs."
Except every week on the show.
And the prospect of doing cover songs didn't seem to stop Newsted, Lee or Clarke from performing for the small crowd. While partygoers ate pizza topped with salmon and caviar by Wolfgang Puck catering, the room rocked like San Francisco in the'89 quake.
Both Newsted and Lee made Kate Moss look like a plus-size model, burning calories

with perpetual motion.
Newsted jumped on a cajon, slapping that cabinet like it was Metallica's lead singer, James Hetfield. Lee drummed up the crowd, nuzzled the women and generally acted like a rock star. With his jeans sliding down his backside, you got a show usually reserved for Internet traffic.
Lee managed to dance with almost every woman in the room, including those who don't look like the rocker types and carry reporter notebooks.
Well, he was actually dancing with the skinny young chicks, but in close quarters it was all the same.
The party room was actually the living room to the house, filled with votive candles for the major lighting and a full, free bar.
Living the rock star image, Lee decided to toss his drink down contestant Phil Ritchie's front door. Looking down at his soggy pants, Ritchie shook up his beer and let the spray fall where it may — including on a few of us standing too close to the action.
Show contestants took turns singing everything from the Stones' "Honky Tonk Women" to Alanis Morissette's "You Oughta Know" in a smokin' freestyle concert. During the taping earlier that evening, Lee had smacked contestant Dana Andrews for her lack of stage presence.
After Andrews rocked him with her powerful vocals, he started showing her how she

should have used her body to drive it all home.
At "American Idol," you get people who make the deadly chipper "Up with People" pack seem cynical.
These folks had no problem going to the dark side and taking swipes at the competition.
Front-runner Dilana Robichaux says she didn't sign up for "frickin' 'Big Brother,'" although that's how is seems to be turning out.
Which could be a good thing for the ratings.
Former San Francisco resident Storm Large sang, flirted with Lee and did her best to get noticed in the crowd. So why did she leave the Bay Area?
"Willie Brown, man," she says. "That was it. He was there, so I just couldn't be."
Either that or rent was too high in the city.
Newsted says he has his eye on all the singers, all the time.
"There's about five I'd bring on tour with me right now," Newsted says as he wiped the sweat off his forehead.
He took a break for a few minutes away from the party to get some water, and cool down outside. If it's possible, he talks faster than he drums on the cajon.
Newsted says he saw a photo of a farmer in a remote area of Vietnam wearing a Metallica T-shirt.
"It just said to me that there's practically nowhere on the planet where Metallica isn't known," Newsted says. "You hear so much about how people in these countries

want to kill Americans and somehow music transcends that. And it's amazing that beauty can come from ugly music like metal, but it has that energy and that vibe that draws people to it."
For example, "Supernova" is seen in countries all over the world and has become an international success.
"There's like some guy in the Ukraine with foil for rabbit ears and twisting his body in some weird way just to get the signal," Newsted says, acting it out. "But we're there and that's amazing."
Newsted says the show allows talented singers to skip rungs on the ladder to success.
"You meet a lot of bad influences out there, influences that can crush you if you aren't strong enough," he says, perhaps referring to his rocky relationship with the other members of Metallica during his 14 years with the group.
Newsted's proud of his track record promoting up and comers, especially in the Bay Area, like the Moss Brothers from Berkeley, Echobrain from Millbrae and the funk band Papa Wheelie from San Ramon, all of which have worked under his Chop House record label in Walnut Creek.
"Papa Wheelie's name came from mountain biking," Newsted says of his second love. "I go to Mount Tam and Mount Diablo all the time. You can see Mount Diablo from my house (in Walnut Creek), where I've lived since I started with Metallica."
Newsted says he thinks the Bay Area is still a driving force in music.
"The Bay Area has always set standards for music, because every type of music and people exist there, it's a melting pot that's great to live in, raise children or make music," Newsted says. "I could live anywhere in the world, but I choose the Bay Area for that reason. There's nowhere else like it."
But for the month he's down in Los Angeles, it's a pretty good second home.
Ok ok Will, I know Clint is in everything!! He was an ugly kid...we always wanted the bear to maul mark wedlow!! I guess my siblings and I are a little morbid? But why is he dressing up and trying to front a rock band? (someone might tell him, it's a coonskin cap....not skunk!!)

Momma mia Rockstar, I totally agree with you, he is such an odd little guy at least looks wise, we are with you. We could easily dress up Clint to look like skunk boy, easily!
I just think someone who is that homely and has made his way deserves props. Not, skunk boy. Die Shunk boy Die!!
Shellybean said: "And last night as I was watching the show go off, I noticed Skunk Boy's profile. He looks exactly like Clint Howard. Remember him? He is a character player and Ron Howard's brother. He played Leroy on The Andy Griffen show and shows up on VH1 70 's shows now. He also reminds me of Shaka the little monkey guy on Land of the Lost. (I know I have just shown how old I really am!)"
I totally thought that the first time I saw him! Well, not that Chaka part (I had a big crush on Holly from that show as a kid!), but I totally see it now! "Beware the Sleestax!"
By the way, Storm is going to be in the final three with Skunk-Chaka and Scarani, but won't get the gig. She will, get a major record deal for her band The Balls and go on to greater fame and fortune than Gilboy ever imagined...
I was going to add the after the show party information in my Reality Episode! However, I think since you posted it – I should just add a different point of view of the same party! Great insight about Dilana’s piercing and a whole lot of gasoline for momROCKS to keep the hate burning as far as Skunk Boy is concerned!
And I quote!
As fun as tonight's show was to see live, it pales compared to the rockin' after party, held at the secluded Rock Star mansion (silent screen star Antonio Moreno's restored hilltop estate). The grand property, with its stunning view of downtown Los Angeles, has been the Big Brother house to the 'Nova newbies for three weeks. Cameras are everywhere, points out Galt, with only the bathrooms off-limits.
I found rainbow-haired Robichaux chilling in the candle lit backyard. Another reporter asks about her three pointy lower lip piercings. Why does she have them there? he asks. Dilana leans over and gently kisses him on the cheek. "Hey, I want to know why you have them there, too," I said. Another peck, which came with an added tickle of metal. "Do you have any other piercings?" I asked a little too quickly. This cracked Robichaux up. "Who are you, Tommy Lee?"
Besides Robichaux's busses, what still had critics lucky enough to be there buzzing was the kick-ass, impromptu jam session the various musicians on site put on Sunday night. All three Supernova members got in on the act, with Lee beating out time on anything or anyone handy, Clarke singin' and pickin' through Stones standards like You Can't Always Get What You Want and bassist Newsted jamming on bongos and guitar. If this slapped together super group seemed phony and forced before, that notion was exploded that night. These dudes are totally into it.
As were the contestants. Robichaux opened the extended set, wailing like she was channeling Janis Joplin. Iceland native Magni Asgeirsson jammed all night long, strumming everything thrown at him on guitar, including the Beatles ballad In My Life. The rock veterans and house wannabes kicked *on everything from hip hop to Alanis Morissette.
At one point, Lee got up off the floor and poured a beer down contestant Phil Ritchie's pants. Ritchie returned the favour, dumping a pint down Lee's droopy drawers. These kids are learning from the best.
Clarke put a beer bottle to better use, using one to play slide guitar on Honky Tonk Woman. Last year's winner, J.D. Fortune, looked on in awe. The night was supreme and sublime, a genuine wow, one of the most memorable moments on press tour ever.
Sitting it all out was Rossi, with the ultimate, too cool for the room rock star move. It is the kind of sneering stunt that the band has applauded so far on the series ("Lukas scares me," praised Lee), but it probably didn't win him any brownie points with the band Sunday night. If he stumbles and winds up in the bottom three one week, this night may come back to haunt him. Still, don't look for that to happen on tomorrow night's results show (8 p.m. on Global and CBS).
Sprout, excellent post. Thanks ole boy! I don't like the little
far* but, his incessant posing and lying to others and himself is so pitiful I can't put the full weight of my disgust on him. We wouldn't be friends. He has a fair product, as long as he is in total control to hide his deficiencies....
Guest said: Lukas will win a canadian always will win this show cause amaricans cant sing
Hello.... my CAT can articulate more clearly than Lukas can. That's right, my CAT. Lukas has excellent performance abilities, but he has thus far failed to listen to the band. There is no way he will win unless he changes his attitude.
But you get bonus points for patriotism, even if it's misguided.
i was very sad to see Dana Andrews leave i thought that she was amazing, but since she is no longer with us i am rootiing for Dilana she is absolutley made for supernova......
Don't mind me, I'm just a guest.
