Australian Idol Named

[jed]

Casey won

Hear that, dimitri, Casey won...

I was listening to Nova 96.9 last night, and they were taking calls to discuss the outcome. One girl rang up and started laying into Casey's body image. She went waaaaay over the top, and thankfully she was cut off by the announcer. But she raised a valid point: Last year, Dicko was crucified by the media & the public over the dress comment to Paulini, and about 2 months ago he raised the issue of Courtney's weight in a very staged moment on stage (did anyone else notice that there were promos running the following evening all about Coutney's weight loss on Inside Idol?), but through the entire series, Casey's weight wasn't mentioned once. Not a single time.

Just for the record, I never liked her, and every week I expected her to be bottom 3, and figured she would've been ditched a long time ago. And when she won last night, I was just plain shocked. And her weight has absolutely no bearing on her talent. But surely if you're going to highlight one contestant's weight, surely the fair thing is to make an equal issue of the other contestants?

It may not be fair but there is a reason they didn't do it

If they had dared to bring up the issue of a 16 year old girls weight on national television they would have been absolutely crucified (and rightly so - the difference is they shouldn't have done it to the others either)

 

[CliffyIsGod]

That's right brook, everyone would want blood from whoever made comments about her weight.

I am truly sickened and appalled at all the people who are abusing Casey because of her weight alone.

GROW UP PEOPLE!

Get a life and take a look around.

TV is not real life!

There are a million body shapes and faces out there. Not alot look like they do on TV.

I dont watch that godawful karaoke TV show nor do I approve of other people doing so but unfortunately due to the shallow nature of our society, I have to hack the exposure to it within papers, TV, radio etc. The fact that this disgraceful obese 16 year old monster can be crowned the title of being an "Australian Idol" just shows that our country has taken a turn for the worse.

Back in the good days a filthy creature of such gigantic proportions and hideous features would have been rightfully used as a target for all the insults and missiles that could be mustered, and been generally ostrified in her own (albeit mighty LARGE) corner of the playground by the rest of her reasonably-sized peers.

How dare people pretend this is normal. What a disgrace. Being obese is a choice you make, it's PC to beat around the bush and not mention that these despicable fatties have brought it on themselves. Luckily not all of us subscribe to that theory and the tide is turning. As the country gets fatter and fatter, the rest of us who fulfil their commitments to looking good and staying healthy will increasingly voice our disgust at being uncomfortable around these ogres - exhibit 1 being this disgusting excuse for a sub-human in Casey. Put simply, if youre fat, dont expect me to sugar coat things for you.

Step one for this national tragedy who is a winner but ultimately a failure is that she must give a good example to the kids. Stunning, rapid weight loss is the key. She must get herself down to a weight that is healthy and acceptable. I dont mean sizing down her whale-like proportions until she is merely tubby - I mean normal body mass index size. Otherwise she should just end it. If the judges didnt make an issue of her almighty girth, this country is going in a direction that is just plain wrong.

At least if you want to crown such a behemoth in some sort of pop culture glory, keep it confined to that one shitty TV show. Dont write about it in my papers or talk about it on the radio.

She aint my idol.

 

[Special K]

zingers :lol:

 

[Godz Illa]

ShireShark the disgusting excuse for a sub-human is yourself. Such rancid, despicable hate is uglier and more hideous than any physical abnormality.

"That's a huge bitch!"

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: .



i had nightmares all last night after seeing her come out of that car



arrrrrrrrrrrgh

how did she win idol???


anthony will be very successful over his career

she will continue to be a jibberer with no personality and little movement on stage

 

[choc_soldier]

Just to clarify, Casey Donavon is NOT a porn star - well, he is, and quite a suceesful one at that..

But someone should tell Telstra that, judging from what I've head today. What a cock up (no pun intended of course).

For the record, I'm glad that Casey won. But I didn't really watch that much of it to be honest.

 

[hybrid_tiger]

The show is a load of garbage.

End of.

I dont hate her you dumb merkin I just dont like where society is going if we cant see that this is not a monster who should be applauded but rather outcast until she becomes thin.

However I am glad we agreed on the physical abnormality bit.

Once again SS, you stoop to a new low. Who else should be outcast? The lefties that you hate so much? Take a good hard look at yourself. You're sounding more and more like Hitler every day.

 

[eastsrule]

But we live in an age were obesity is something we are trying to get rid of?

 

[King of the Hill]

f**k me, another stalker

Who else should be outcast?

huh?

The lefties that you hate so much?

theyre already social outcasts

Take a good hard look at yourself

i like what i see

You're sounding more and more like Hitler every day.

well that makes no sense

can one of you fat supporting idiots please play the ball and not the man?
tell me why being a fat f**k shouldnt be frowned upon

 

[King of the Hill]

come on, have a go you stupid f**ks.

 

[Godz Illa]

Outcast until she becomes thin? Outcast to where? A ghetto surrounded by 20 foot brick walls with the rest of her kind? You do sound like Hitler. Well you can keep your Aryan perfection SS, because society has been enlightened since your halcyon days of the Third Reich. These days a person is judged by the strength of their character, rather than the colour of their skin or the shape of their body. And in terms of character, SS, you are sadly lacking.

 

[King of the Hill]

:lol: :lol:
you stupid f**k
who's talking about the colour of anyone's skin? (apart from a fat white woman who talked up her black heritage - like anyone really cares)

Outcast to where? A ghetto surrounded by 20 foot brick walls with the rest of her kind?

sounds like a good idea to me
or the desert

These days a person is judged by the strength of their character, rather than the colour of their skin or the shape of their body

well you must be a fat f**k who is in denial if you dont think people are judged by the shape of their body
fat, stupid and ignorant

never mind my character, life has blessed me
sadly you are lacking
just end it
