The Riff-Raff Element Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 This cannot be healthy. My wife has gone to a meeting at the school and left me in charge. We have thousands upon thousands of books in this house covering every topic we could ever wish to look up, as well as a treasure trove of World Literature. What am I doing? I'm watching Star Academy.I just can't help myself. It's the same germ in my makeup that makes me look at road accidents. I am sitting here squirming at the awfulness of it all. Am I the only person using this forum who watches this drivel? Celine Dion is on this week, and I have to say that she's got a look on her face that suggests that she's trodden in dog poo. Presumably sales of whatever new album she has out aren't going too well. She can't need the money that badly, can she?The worst bit is that I have started to care about who gets chucked off (should be - in a just and fair World - that slimey git Gregorie this week, but the girls seem to like him, so my money is on Jil) and who the eventual winner will be. My brain is starting to leak out of my ears...anyone fancy a couple of francs on the eventual outcome???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Yes I too was addicted to that, I watched the one when, was it Nolene won? and Phil Collins was on there. I even bought the soundtrack -"music" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La vieille Posted October 8, 2005 Share Posted October 8, 2005 Oh yes! Back in the UK now, but sadly, the first thing I do on Saturday morning is to look up on the internet to see who has been removed!I don't think this lot are as talented as the last lot were, and I would bet that Magali won't win!What's worse is that the OH also takes a passing interest as well and he doesn't normally listen to anything that isn't opera. What is this fascination? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She may have a certain paucity of talent, but she is very, very blonde and (as anyone who watched the last series when the ghastly Elodie won will know) this is a winning combination! We're talking about the media industry here, after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have blanked it out. One sometimes does in cases of trauma. Hoda should have won the last series - she was robbed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La vieille Posted October 9, 2005 Share Posted October 9, 2005 Yes Hoda was definitely the best last time around.OH fancies Emilie this time (in more than one sense of the word!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
