well i see him on myspace and chat to him.I told him how disappointed i was at his elimination.He should have stayed to at least the top5 not Kali
Yes he should ! I mean he was the fave and I hopefully will go to the tour this year!
idolangel_x13 i so agree with you..and he SOOO will be going on tour
I was massively disappointed very sad well actually PISSED OFF when my fave contestant Clinton got voted out. Well Kali deserved to go NOT Clinton.I cried with all my heart when he was out.It totally ruined my night boo! I do hope I meet Clinton one day . Clinton rules and he'll go on TOUR.
I think LENKEN was robbed big time!!!!
I don't think he was robbed, Clinton was a great guy but was not making the grade vocally every week. If he did not go this week, he would probably go next week. I wish him all the best in his radio presenting career
yep,for sure,Clinton had no right to leave just yet,bit of a shocker really.Dont get me wrong,he wasnt about to win this but im sure ben,kali and toni are feelin just a tad guilty.it should of been one of them,never fear,there days are numbered,i just hope the voting public are realistic from here on in otherwise we may lose one of our finer performers eg,aroha,indira
Yes, Clinton was robbed. He has been the more consistently good performer over the competition compared to Kali "I'm the only South Island contestant, give me sympathy votes". And I think that is what happened. And this is why Idol infuriates me. Because the public who know it's a waste of time to vote know more than the boppers whose mummies and daddies buy them phone cards when they waste $20 on txting for Ben.
Hmmm. Are you joking about Clinton being a consistantly good performer? :S
Being a more consistently good performer than Kali. He wasn't much of a performer at all, in my opinion. He just deserved to stay ahead of KALI.
Yes, Clinton was robbed. I nicked his hairgel.
LOL has it improved your looks?
Yup, my hair sticks up for much longer now.
Glad he's gone, I started getting bored of him. Kali will probably be next though.
Clinton took a risk and tried to extend himself and he has paid the price for it. Ben on the other hand played it safe and choose a song that would not extend his singing hence he is still there. He has no great singing ability but he is still there because he caught the "Murphy pretty boy vote".
Clinton is far better than that. This time next year NZ will have forgotten most of the final ten but you wait and see Clinton is no fool, you will see him again.
ohh so sad....clinton was my fave from the beginning :( (his smile just made me melt!
haha) sure he didnt have the strongest voice, but he had the overall package to me. I certainly prefer him more than Ben! Nothing against Ben, but Clinton was a better singer, looks better, performs better - I just personally don't understand how Clinton went before him. Its a shame that he was tipped the winner in the beginning, it works against them if they are cuz people automatically presume they're a favourite and dont vote for them. Anyway, I'm sure Clinton will be snapped up for something, cant wait to see what becomes of him.
well its looking more like a female is going to win NZ Idol
Yay I'm so glad I don't have to listen to him again
I actually wouldn't have minded him so much if he fixed his tuning.
I think his comment last night about stealing Dom's job is actually a good idea as he would probably be a great presentor! I don't mean he should actually steal Dom's job lol.
I was really surprised - and sorry - to see Clinton go so early. But then his performances lately haven't done much to make people think how good he is and want to vote for him on that. I would still have liked to see more of him though.
Mind you, performances aren't always the reason someone stays in. That's why I was so surprised that Clinton went. Thought he had a lot of support because of his personality. He certainly wasn't the worse singer - as was noted by one of the judges!
Just shows how anything can happen! From favourite to being eliminated in the first few weeks!
Let's all punch & kick Kali.
So, so mature.
When will stupid people realise it's not the fault of the other contestant who's in the bottom 2?
I agree, that comment was so stupid and uncalled for!
Kali didn't do anything wrong, she did her best and wanted to stay as much as Clinton did I'm sure.
Clinton coped so well last night, that shining personality really came through. I'm sure he will have many offers waiting for him - he would make a great TV presenter
Omg i so did not think clinton would of gone so early in the comp
Clinton will benefit greatly from his time in idol as he has so much potential. Many others even those who make it to the end will fall off the radar.
Aroha would do well to develop a similar personality. She has the voice but little else. I hope for her sake she has the maturity to learn and grow.
He so could have won it..I mean you never know and now we will never know..now I'm going to vote for Ben like crazy..should've done the same for Clinton...
about time he went.
How exactly was Clinton robbed?
For the first time since I can remember, I actually agreed with the voters - or lack of
Kali will be gone next week - no biggie.
I saw this coming. At some point, the voters will have to choose between Clinton and Ben and they obviously picked Ben instead of Clinton.
Yeah Kali should've gone she sucks.
The fact that Ben is still there highlights why most of the country have lost interest in idol.
Perhaps they should change the name to NZ Popularity Idol. Where do all those kids get the money to vote ?
you still seem pretty interested bellam!
and just because they're kids doesn't mean their votes count less than yours! they might actually buy the idol winner's album so i think their votes are very important!!!
It grows on trees, duh!
*Nellie cheers* - rofl at your fine form is Splitn my Insidz
They aren't all "kids". Blaming it on the Ben boppers is stupid.
Thank you
Well.. my friend's mum voted for him.. so they aren't all kids..
Don't forget Beck's Nana!
True. I liked her..
I bet she does. And well.
does what well
ROFL chevy you're not that innocent

I try to be Mr nice guy sometimes. its that Luvzy rubbing off on me again
Haha you're so cute
