"Hit Me Baby One More Time" to premiere next week!

[markydefad]

They are running ads of the U.S. version on NBC; wherein over-the-hill pop stars compete for a chance to get a new "hit"!!!


Among the names they are teasing as future guests:

Vanilla Ice
Loverboy
Tiffany
The Knack
Air Supply
Wang Chung
A Flock Of Seagulls
& Irene Cara!!!!
:oops: :oops: :oops: :oops: :oops:
There were some more...but that's what I remember!!!

Cece Peniston and Arrested Development.

named after a Britney Spears song seems doomed from the outset

Air Supply came to play in Argentina a few times during the nineties. I interviewed them on their first visit, more than a decade ago. They were so full of themselves... And the high-pitched vocalist was soooo sissy! :D

"'Lost in love' is the best love song I've ever heard" (quote) :o

The problem with Air Supply was that they did too many power ballad songs and never changed their style. It got old quick.

Tiffany made it to the final of the UK version. Shalamar should've won but came second to Shakin' flippin' Stevens. :( I really do despair with the British public's taste!
Here's hoping that Amanda Lear's on the next series! :D

Add Billy Ray Cyrus ("Achy Breaky Fart") Tommy Tutone ("867-5309") and Cameo ("Word Up") to the roster of show #1.

I reckon it was fixed SandraDee. Shaky wasn't even surprised that he'd won. And what's up with his hair? It's still jet black at his age. I'll call him Casey Kasem in future.

Reborn in the USA was also fixed IMO. Tony Hadley was so cock sure that he was gonna win. And didn't deserve too. BTW, It hasn't done anything for his 'career' in the US has it. Michelle Gayle should've won.

well I got my DVR ready to go!!! a similar show was aired on MTV last year... instead it was finding these artists and having them do a live show... it was so cool. I think I started a topic on it... nobody replied tho.. :lol:

[Davicillo]

Love to see 'A flock of seagulls' now!!! LOL!

[efunk_adelic]

that was enjoyable to see

CECE PENNISTON


actually good to see all of them in action again....

[nrgbeat]

I thought Flock of Seagulls was the worst of the lot.
