On today's episode featuring Australian Idols 0:00:12.039 --> 0:00:15.480 host Scott Tweety. This Sunday night, we will see our 0:00:15.560 --> 0:00:18.360 top six take the stage in what I call a 0:00:18.640 --> 0:00:21.760 very very tight six horse race to the Idle Crown. 0:00:22.200 --> 0:00:24.960 Scott has joined me every year to chat about Australia's 0:00:25.040 --> 0:00:29.120 longest running singing competition, and today he's bringing some exclusive 0:00:29.280 --> 0:00:32.440 backstage insights and what better time to have him on 0:00:32.479 --> 0:00:35.600 the podcast than right before the top six finalists battle 0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:39.040 it out. In the episode, Scott shares his favorite performances 0:00:39.040 --> 0:00:42.240 from each of the artists and reveals what these contenders 0:00:42.280 --> 0:00:45.519 are really like behind the scenes. He opens up about 0:00:45.600 --> 0:00:48.239 the future of the show and why he thinks this 0:00:48.360 --> 0:00:51.760 judging panel is a lock moving forward. Of course, I 0:00:51.880 --> 0:00:55.080 couldn't resist digging into Scott's personal life, of course, so 0:00:55.160 --> 0:00:58.880 we will chat about why he is single, especially after 0:00:58.880 --> 0:01:02.040 the rumors that Ricky has been working over time to 0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:05.160 find him a wife. You will hear everything from Scott's 0:01:05.160 --> 0:01:07.920 most famous matches on Riyah, which is a dating app 0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:11.319 if you didn't know what he insists on having stopped 0:01:11.360 --> 0:01:14.959 in his dressing room, and even the hilarious text his 0:01:15.080 --> 0:01:18.080 mom sends him after every show. There is actually so 0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:21.360 much to cover, with plenty of behind the scenes revelations. 0:01:21.400 --> 0:01:24.680 To sit back, relax and get ready as we are 0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:27.440 going to dive into the world of Australian Idol, which 0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:29.960 returns this Sunday night on Channel seven. 0:01:32.120 --> 0:01:34.600 Good will not see you but hear from you again. 0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:37.240 Isn't it weird Like whenever you're doing these chats and 0:01:37.280 --> 0:01:39.760 it's on the phone, you kind of feel very relaxed, 0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:41.319 like you're on a phone call and you forget that 0:01:41.360 --> 0:01:43.320 someone's gonna drop it all on a podcast. 0:01:43.560 --> 0:01:46.240 Your family. You are part of the Idle family. So 0:01:46.240 --> 0:01:46.840 it's all good. 0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:49.880 Oh, I just love this show, like I honestly, and 0:01:49.920 --> 0:01:52.040 you know that because I remember we were talking when 0:01:52.080 --> 0:01:54.000 you got the gig and I was telling you about 0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:56.800 how obsessed I am with this show. My partner does 0:01:56.840 --> 0:02:00.880 think I should be slightly or possibly admitted to because 0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:03.880 he can't escape this show because then throughout the week 0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:06.680 when the show's not on television, I make him rewatch 0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:07.640 all the performances. 0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:09.799 Oh my gosh, Well then I can't wait to hear 0:02:09.840 --> 0:02:12.040 who your favorite going to be. But what I need 0:02:12.080 --> 0:02:13.760 to do. I need to put you and my mom 0:02:13.800 --> 0:02:16.400 in a group chat thing because she she watches it 0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:19.440 live and WhatsApps me line by line her thought, what 0:02:19.520 --> 0:02:21.960 the judges are saying about the performances. 0:02:21.320 --> 0:02:23.920 About the wardrobe, about everything. 0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:26.000 She just had, even about my wardrobe and how I'm 0:02:26.040 --> 0:02:28.880 going I get the full critique from her. So maybe 0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:29.520 I'll chuck you. 0:02:29.400 --> 0:02:31.079 To it or what's out that'd be great. We can 0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:33.200 discuss about how much chest hair. Where we would like 0:02:33.240 --> 0:02:33.960 to see from you. 0:02:34.040 --> 0:02:36.680 Depends our HD. Your TV is really yeah. 0:02:36.520 --> 0:02:39.320 Yeah, that's very good. And we have a home cinema 0:02:39.480 --> 0:02:42.320 so like you're you're very big. That sounds weird. You're 0:02:42.440 --> 0:02:43.519 very big in our house. 0:02:44.600 --> 0:02:49.040 Every week, man, I go get into podcast things. Yeah, hell, 0:02:49.040 --> 0:02:49.560 that's where the. 0:02:49.520 --> 0:02:51.160 Money is that now, go and win a series of 0:02:51.200 --> 0:02:52.800 Big Brother and that's what you spend the money on. 0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:53.840 That's where it came from. 0:02:54.040 --> 0:02:55.720 That's smart. That is smart. 0:02:55.800 --> 0:02:58.520 Everyone else probably spend it on alcohol and drugs. How 0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:01.200 have you been and how are you enjoying being back 0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:02.480 in Australia working on Idol. 0:03:02.720 --> 0:03:06.000 Idol is the dream hosting gig this season, are the 0:03:06.080 --> 0:03:09.560 dream contestant, Like, honestly, you know when a a period 0:03:09.560 --> 0:03:11.919 in your life where I feel like life is really good? 0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:14.400 Right now? You know a door working with Ricky Lee. 0:03:14.639 --> 0:03:17.680 I absolutely love the judges, but the contestants this year, 0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:20.480 they keep surprising us, like, I don't know. Every season, 0:03:20.480 --> 0:03:22.080 I'm like, what's going to happen? Who are we going 0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:24.480 to get? I think it's just that younger tower Pool 0:03:24.639 --> 0:03:27.000 as well, a lot of Queensland is I don't know, 0:03:27.080 --> 0:03:28.400 it's just everything seems great. 0:03:28.440 --> 0:03:31.280 Queensland has worked well with reality television. I don't know why. 0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:35.240 Just across the board, I feel like Queensland understands reality TV. 0:03:35.480 --> 0:03:37.920 Something in the water, yeah, or we're just not filtered. 0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:42.480 Maybe we're we're bad at filtering ourselves and we are 0:03:42.560 --> 0:03:43.640 just too authentic. 0:03:43.880 --> 0:03:46.600 There's something very cryptic that John dropped with me the 0:03:46.640 --> 0:03:48.400 other day. So I've been chatting to everyone as they 0:03:48.480 --> 0:03:50.440 leave the show. But I guess I'm probably gonna have 0:03:50.480 --> 0:03:53.320 to give you some context of this. So John was 0:03:53.360 --> 0:03:55.320 going on to say, well, I said to him that 0:03:55.440 --> 0:03:57.240 he is a really good singer, right, I was like, 0:03:57.280 --> 0:03:58.880 I think you're a great singer, but I can see 0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:02.680 you doing home away or TV presenting. I don't know, 0:04:02.760 --> 0:04:04.960 do you see him doing going on to do something 0:04:05.000 --> 0:04:05.200 like that? 0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:07.520 I definitely can see that at him. Yeah, John is 0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:09.880 I also want to like gruff him up a little 0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:12.640 bit more like he's very well presented. Okay if that 0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:13.280 makes sense. 0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:15.560 Yeah, this is coming from you, who's like very squeaky 0:04:15.560 --> 0:04:16.200 claim my friend. 0:04:16.480 --> 0:04:20.039 Yeah, I am. So they do spend a lot of 0:04:20.040 --> 0:04:22.800 time polishing me up. But I think I think, deep down, 0:04:22.800 --> 0:04:25.240 once again, I am just a bogan from Brisbane. But yeah, 0:04:25.279 --> 0:04:27.520 I can see John one hundred percent doing that. I 0:04:27.560 --> 0:04:30.160 think he's already he already goes to woppa or has 0:04:30.240 --> 0:04:32.720 been to woppa. Oh, so he's the He's in the 0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:35.440 right lane to be doing stuff like that. I see 0:04:35.520 --> 0:04:37.719 him more the a bit more musical theater. I think 0:04:37.760 --> 0:04:41.559 he adds like another twenty percent of personality and energy, 0:04:41.640 --> 0:04:43.440 So I see him sort of sitting in that lane. 0:04:43.480 --> 0:04:45.680 Well. He then mentioned that he you know, that he 0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:48.160 dropped out of the competition at the same time as 0:04:48.240 --> 0:04:50.359 Ricky Lee and that maybe he would like to follow 0:04:50.360 --> 0:04:52.359 in her trajectory. So I kind of joked that he 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:54.919 was coming for your job and maybe he would end 0:04:55.000 --> 0:04:57.480 up posting idol at some point. But then he said, 0:04:57.600 --> 0:04:59.520 so you could focus on your love life, and I 0:04:59.560 --> 0:05:01.120 thought that was a bit cryptic. So I want to 0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:02.800 know what the hell is going on with your love life? 0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:03.719 Why did he say that? 0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:07.279 This feels like it is a common theme of this season, 0:05:07.520 --> 0:05:10.520 and I feel Ricky Lee is to blame for there. Yeah, look, 0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:13.520 I'm still single. Ricky's mission was by the end of 0:05:13.520 --> 0:05:15.640 this season to find me a partner. We've got two 0:05:15.680 --> 0:05:18.279 weeks to go. I can confirm there's no partner yet. 0:05:18.440 --> 0:05:21.080 But no. Look, I think between my lifestyle between the 0:05:21.200 --> 0:05:23.200 US and Australia, works still has been a bit of 0:05:23.200 --> 0:05:26.120 a priority. But Ricky was like, nap, I'm going to 0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:29.479 find your white. Did actually even tend a series called 0:05:29.520 --> 0:05:33.800 Scotty Wants a White? I would rather spine my life partner, 0:05:33.880 --> 0:05:36.920 not on a TV production or a show, especially when 0:05:36.920 --> 0:05:40.280 those cameras around. But no, I think all the contestants 0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:43.480 love digging into that as well, which which I love. Okay, hilarious. 0:05:43.520 --> 0:05:45.840 Why are you single? I don't understand this. Like you're 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:48.920 a good looking rooster. You spend some time in Los Angeles, 0:05:48.920 --> 0:05:51.919 which you know is the city of angels, of beautiful women. 0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:54.560 And then you're back here in Australia. You're working out 0:05:54.560 --> 0:05:57.640 of Sydney. I believe you're in Bondi, which is another place, 0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:01.159 a hub of hotties. And then we have single what 0:06:01.240 --> 0:06:02.520 is going on? What are you doing wrong? 0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:06.159 What I do wrong? I think it's just has to 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:09.200 be my priority right now. I definitely I've jumped from 0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:12.000 long RELATIONSHSIP long term relationships, long term relationships, so I 0:06:12.080 --> 0:06:14.400 always had an amazing partners and now I'm in this 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:16.080 patch where I'm like, you know what, I'm just going 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:19.480 to cruise through and I'm sure at some point, at 0:06:19.520 --> 0:06:22.400 the right place, at the right time, an amazing person 0:06:22.520 --> 0:06:24.680 is going to pop up and be there. But I'm 0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:27.680 not playing the dating apps game. I'm not. I'm just 0:06:27.760 --> 0:06:30.440 keeping it pretty chill and it's very fulfilling right now, 0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:33.360 just enjoying my friend's family and stuff like that. I am. 0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:35.560 I'm not easy to date because I lived between the 0:06:35.680 --> 0:06:37.520 US and lay that same. 0:06:37.400 --> 0:06:41.039 Place, live between LA and Australia, so it's kind of 0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:44.080 tricky that someone needs to understand, like, you know, a 0:06:44.120 --> 0:06:48.360 lifestyle and production, a lifestyle of like it's a very 0:06:48.360 --> 0:06:51.640 fast lifestyle, but once again, there will be that partner 0:06:51.640 --> 0:06:52.000 out there. 0:06:52.040 --> 0:06:54.320 I'm just not not really looking right now. I'm pretty 0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:55.679 content with just my life. 0:06:55.800 --> 0:06:58.599 Have you tried rya whatever that dating website is for celebrities. 0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:01.760 Yeah, I've been a ryer to Riya Hinge and I 0:07:01.800 --> 0:07:05.320 found my ex girlfriend were connected together on Hinge. So 0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:07.479 we dated for a year and a half and she 0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:10.240 was an amazing girl down in San Diego, but wasn't 0:07:10.280 --> 0:07:12.760 the right next. So look, they're good, but you need 0:07:13.040 --> 0:07:15.720 you need to invest the time because man, it is 0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:18.200 like it becomes a bit of an addiction because of 0:07:18.200 --> 0:07:21.520 course that there's a lot of my friend because unlimited supply, 0:07:21.800 --> 0:07:24.000 and I think you kind of just lose that the 0:07:24.080 --> 0:07:27.200 connection and looks the value in someone because it's such 0:07:27.200 --> 0:07:29.280 a fake value thing where you're like, look at it 0:07:29.360 --> 0:07:32.840 photos next, Yes, No, And I don't know. I just 0:07:32.840 --> 0:07:35.720 feel like I prefer to meet someone, know barbecue or 0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:37.560 through a friend or he's such a. 0:07:37.480 --> 0:07:39.560 Sweet guy, that's the right way to meet someone. Like 0:07:39.600 --> 0:07:41.360 I think if someone did stumble across you on a 0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:43.480 barbecue that snap you up. How that hasn't happened is 0:07:43.520 --> 0:07:45.480 beyond me. But the question I love to ask people 0:07:45.520 --> 0:07:47.360 who have been on that app is who's the most 0:07:47.400 --> 0:07:49.920 famous person you've ever seen on Rio? 0:07:50.200 --> 0:07:55.080 In my short stint on it, I saw Camilicabo. I 0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:59.480 saw there's too many celebs to be honest, really just 0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:02.240 like there's a big sort of like influences and all 0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:04.720 that stuff. Okay, but no real big celebts for there. 0:08:04.760 --> 0:08:07.080 It's a bit of a I don't really believe. I 0:08:07.120 --> 0:08:08.760 think of the celebs are on there, they're kind of 0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:10.880 paid to be on there because I can't see many 0:08:10.920 --> 0:08:12.680 of them actually dating are there? 0:08:12.880 --> 0:08:15.520 Okay? Okay, Well I asked someone recently and they were like, 0:08:15.560 --> 0:08:17.760 I got matched with John Mayer and I was like, oh, 0:08:17.880 --> 0:08:19.400 I was like, this is I think. 0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:21.440 Every one of my girlfriends is matched job Mayo. Ye, 0:08:22.400 --> 0:08:23.280 genuinely on there. 0:08:23.880 --> 0:08:26.240 He's definitely on there. We need to not talk about 0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:28.520 your love life any longer because now people come for me. 0:08:28.560 --> 0:08:30.480 But for being creepy, I was going to talk to 0:08:30.480 --> 0:08:32.240 you about this show. So can you pick who you 0:08:32.280 --> 0:08:34.400 think would be my favorite? Because I have a clear 0:08:34.440 --> 0:08:37.160 favorite that I'm obsessed with and I can't get enough 0:08:37.200 --> 0:08:37.840 of this person. 0:08:38.200 --> 0:08:40.000 I think you're a Marshall Hamburger fan. 0:08:40.360 --> 0:08:43.560 No, I do love him, and I think it's it's 0:08:43.840 --> 0:08:48.600 Gizella's and Hamburger's competition to lose. But I cannot get 0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:51.480 enough of Iolish, like I am obsessed. I may even 0:08:51.480 --> 0:08:52.280 moved to Cold Can. 0:08:52.600 --> 0:08:56.040 Isn't she? I think she's the epitome of what Australian 0:08:56.080 --> 0:08:59.199 idol is all about. Like I think our show has 0:08:59.240 --> 0:09:02.000 so much all the heart to it, and it's because 0:09:02.040 --> 0:09:05.680 of those genuine Australians that just have never been on 0:09:05.720 --> 0:09:10.120 TV before, and they're autheistically themselves. I mean, getting your 0:09:10.160 --> 0:09:13.320 butcher on the show and making special idol sausages like 0:09:13.480 --> 0:09:14.480 please Say No More. 0:09:14.640 --> 0:09:17.320 Doesn't Trylish is the best? But she also looks I 0:09:17.320 --> 0:09:20.240 think you're right, there's something very earnest about her, Like 0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:22.439 you can see her nerves, you can see that she's 0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:25.280 a real person. She's someone that I think as an audience, 0:09:25.480 --> 0:09:27.600 we connect her with because we can imagine that's kind 0:09:27.600 --> 0:09:30.600 of how we may be on this show. However, she 0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:33.440 has this amazing voice that doesn't even look like it 0:09:33.440 --> 0:09:34.160 comes out of her. 0:09:34.040 --> 0:09:39.200 Body's mystery, isn't it a shy country girl? And then 0:09:39.240 --> 0:09:42.000 all of a sudden that music start, it's like, Bob, 0:09:42.080 --> 0:09:44.040 who are we getting today? What rock star do we have? 0:10:00.520 --> 0:10:02.600 Did you get to watch the rehearsals and see her 0:10:02.640 --> 0:10:05.079 do the incy Wincy spider dance and did you think 0:10:05.120 --> 0:10:07.280 it was a good idea or did you think that's 0:10:07.280 --> 0:10:10.240 either going to, you know, go gangbusters or it's going 0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:11.040 to fall on its face? 0:10:11.280 --> 0:10:14.040 Nah? I kind of there was something about her we 0:10:14.400 --> 0:10:16.960 knew from the from day one. As soon as she 0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:19.400 came in with those glasses on, did her thing in 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:21.560 the auditions, I was like, yeah, she's going to go fast, 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:23.240 going to fall in love with there for sure. 0:10:23.400 --> 0:10:25.680 Did you like the innc Wincy spider dance that Carlson 0:10:25.840 --> 0:10:26.640 Lance threw out? 0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:30.199 I didn't mind it mind it was terrible. 0:10:32.840 --> 0:10:35.400 So we need to unpack the rest of the top six. 0:10:35.440 --> 0:10:37.760 So I want to know from your perspective because you're 0:10:37.800 --> 0:10:39.920 behind the scenes, so you get sort of a backstage 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:42.720 exclusive on some of these people. And it's one of 0:10:42.720 --> 0:10:44.760 the things about Australian Idol that it did very well 0:10:44.800 --> 0:10:48.120 in its first iteration early days season one. We got 0:10:48.120 --> 0:10:50.840 to see their personalities a little bit more and look, 0:10:51.000 --> 0:10:52.960 we can't have the show go on forever, so we 0:10:53.000 --> 0:10:54.680 probably don't get to see as much of this, but 0:10:54.760 --> 0:10:56.960 you're my eyes and ears. What are these people like 0:10:57.120 --> 0:10:59.720 really behind closed doors? If we start with Gisella. 0:10:59.440 --> 0:11:05.240 Okay, Zella is extremely talented, and what I love about 0:11:05.280 --> 0:11:09.120 Gizella is already where now the top six, there's there's 0:11:09.160 --> 0:11:12.719 certain singers on the show that get super comfortable and 0:11:13.040 --> 0:11:16.520 they almost I think Jazella knows in her core that 0:11:16.559 --> 0:11:19.320 she's genuinely made for this and going to be doing 0:11:19.360 --> 0:11:22.360 this forever. And she's so comfortable now. She is like 0:11:22.600 --> 0:11:25.640 a little diva in the best sense on set because 0:11:25.679 --> 0:11:30.319 she is a star, and so her confidence even though 0:11:30.320 --> 0:11:33.040 she does get very nervous. And I do actually love 0:11:33.360 --> 0:11:36.000 when we do the live shows quickly throwing questions to 0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:40.640 Gizella because she kind of can't hide her nerves either. 0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:43.480 Like she is very stumbly over her words and very 0:11:43.480 --> 0:11:46.040 you know, like sweet and innocent because that's who she is. 0:11:46.280 --> 0:11:48.760 But when she's on stage about to perform, she just 0:11:48.800 --> 0:11:52.400 becomes this new personality. And that's what's happening. Even in auditions, 0:11:52.440 --> 0:11:55.719 she's like owning every step that she does. She's owning it. 0:11:56.000 --> 0:11:58.800 With Gisella, do you have a favorite performance that you've 0:11:58.800 --> 0:11:59.439 seen of hers. 0:11:59.720 --> 0:12:02.960 Yeah, I would say it was the bi gravity and 0:12:03.040 --> 0:12:06.319 I know Kyle hated that, but that also got millions 0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:09.000 and millions of views. But it was once again, it 0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:12.000 was her poise and her ownership up on that stage 0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:14.520 and also knowing how tricky that song is to sing, 0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:17.240 even though it's a musical theater song, I think she 0:12:17.400 --> 0:12:36.640 absolutely nailed it. 0:12:36.640 --> 0:12:39.439 It was amazing, Like that's my favorite as well. I 0:12:39.440 --> 0:12:41.760 don't know what Kyle was smoking that day, but I 0:12:41.880 --> 0:12:44.320 just think it was crazy because that is such a 0:12:44.320 --> 0:12:47.360 song for right now and Kyle really knows his music, 0:12:47.400 --> 0:12:49.599 but I think we just found a category that's his kryptonite. 0:12:49.640 --> 0:12:51.640 Like you can't comment on musical theater. 0:12:51.800 --> 0:12:54.760 Yeah, something's happened somewhere in musical theater. I don't know 0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:56.720 if he went for a role and didn't get it. 0:12:56.840 --> 0:12:59.480 Something's happened there. We've gotta we've gotta, we've gotta unpack that. 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:02.080 What about Jake With Jake, what's happening behind the scenes 0:13:02.200 --> 0:13:03.640 with him? What do we not know about him? 0:13:04.520 --> 0:13:07.960 Jake's just like the dad you know he is. He 0:13:08.120 --> 0:13:11.880 is like such a cool, calm, collective country boy, even 0:13:11.920 --> 0:13:14.199 though he grew up you know, just outside of Brizzee. 0:13:14.520 --> 0:13:17.240 He's very focused, knows what he wants to do. He's 0:13:17.280 --> 0:13:20.280 already doing big gigs with his band. So he's just 0:13:20.320 --> 0:13:22.520 the sort of guy that's like really taking in this 0:13:22.640 --> 0:13:25.840 experience to brought his horizons with his country music and 0:13:25.880 --> 0:13:27.280 what he's doing with his band. I think he's doing 0:13:27.280 --> 0:13:29.440 everything right. I don't think that you know, Jake has 0:13:29.480 --> 0:13:32.640 the best voice in the competition, But does Jake show 0:13:32.760 --> 0:13:34.760 up and get the crowd going crazy in there? Yeah? 0:13:34.880 --> 0:13:37.840 So he's a born entertainer and he's willing to learn 0:13:37.880 --> 0:13:40.400 and he's definitely wanting to I was lucky enough to 0:13:40.440 --> 0:13:45.360 take him to through Stapleton, Jim and Dylan. We last minute. 0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:47.280 I got ticket through a friend and I was like, 0:13:47.280 --> 0:13:48.840 who I'm going to take? So I took the boys 0:13:49.120 --> 0:13:52.160 and just watching his love and appreciation for that experience, 0:13:52.320 --> 0:13:54.080 I was like, Yeah, Jake's born to do this. 0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:57.400 Yeah, he's a very authentic looking guy. That's what I 0:13:57.440 --> 0:14:00.320 really like. Do you have a favorite performance of his 0:14:01.160 --> 0:14:04.960 stay in Alive that was so unbelievable? I have watched that. 0:14:04.960 --> 0:14:07.960 That's the one performance I think I've watched the most, 0:14:08.160 --> 0:14:10.280 and it's because people who aren't watching the show. By 0:14:10.320 --> 0:14:12.560 the way, I am a full time promoter of this show, 0:14:12.640 --> 0:14:15.160 like I am a hype girl the Channel seven needs 0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:17.480 because I like bring people to my house they haven't 0:14:17.480 --> 0:14:19.280 even watched any of it, and I make them watch 0:14:19.360 --> 0:14:23.280 the best performances well alone. 0:14:23.360 --> 0:14:27.200 When I can hide cant I'll do the track got 0:14:27.360 --> 0:14:27.760 ham the. 0:14:27.800 --> 0:14:30.520 Week, own my boots and I'm the dansom man. 0:14:30.760 --> 0:14:34.920 I just can't lose. You know what's on? It's Okay Live? 0:14:35.560 --> 0:14:45.200 Another team tracks on man Well already or your steam Alive. 0:14:46.400 --> 0:14:48.000 That is one of my favorite ones to get out 0:14:48.040 --> 0:14:50.720 because here his arrangement of that was so different, but 0:14:50.880 --> 0:14:53.640 it just worked even with the country sound. 0:14:53.760 --> 0:14:56.160 Yeah, and he owned it. It was the pure joy 0:14:56.200 --> 0:14:57.800 to watch. By the way, if you're telling all those people, 0:14:57.880 --> 0:14:59.920 can we thank you because our ratings are growing again 0:15:00.040 --> 0:15:02.560 in this season, so I think it's you the benefit. 0:15:03.000 --> 0:15:05.120 We're going to go on to Jamon. So, Jamon, what 0:15:05.280 --> 0:15:08.320 have you got from our for our Rockhampton boy? What's 0:15:08.360 --> 0:15:09.440 he like behind the scenes? 0:15:09.720 --> 0:15:12.840 Jamin's definitely the cheekyist behind the scenes, such a good bloke, 0:15:13.040 --> 0:15:16.240 but he's a naughty Queenslander, which I kind of love. 0:15:16.640 --> 0:15:19.240 Central I did Breakfast Radio there, I know those people. 0:15:19.320 --> 0:15:21.360 Those people are wild in the best way possible. 0:15:22.000 --> 0:15:24.920 He's so funny in auditions. He's just doing anything to 0:15:25.000 --> 0:15:26.920 try and make Ricky and myself laugh. You know, the 0:15:27.000 --> 0:15:30.920 floor managers like Jamon stop it. He always hears his 0:15:31.080 --> 0:15:33.320 name being yelled out because he's just he's that sort 0:15:33.360 --> 0:15:35.840 of guy. But look, I think he's also one of 0:15:35.880 --> 0:15:39.359 these guys that's just riding along and really enjoying this experience. 0:15:39.920 --> 0:15:43.560 I think he's surprising himself every week of what he 0:15:44.000 --> 0:15:45.520 can do. He was one of the ones that was 0:15:45.840 --> 0:15:49.360 very nervous for big live show, and now he's looking 0:15:49.400 --> 0:15:51.960 a lot more comfortable up there. He's a star touch 0:15:52.000 --> 0:15:54.880 football player, like played for Australia as well. But he's 0:15:54.960 --> 0:15:57.680 definitely that guy that's been the cool kid at school. 0:15:57.840 --> 0:16:00.920 But he's actually got this raw how What I loved 0:16:01.240 --> 0:16:03.840 about Jamine is his tone. It's like he's got this 0:16:04.080 --> 0:16:06.480 beautiful I don't know, it's just just like vulnerable is 0:16:06.520 --> 0:16:08.040 not the right word, but he's got a nice tone 0:16:08.080 --> 0:16:10.200 when he sings. Yeah, I think if he can keep 0:16:10.280 --> 0:16:11.880 exploring that, he will go a long way. 0:16:12.040 --> 0:16:13.160 Do you have a favorite song of his? 0:16:13.640 --> 0:16:16.320 Two Strong Hearts is my favorite of his is acause. 0:16:16.080 --> 0:16:18.360 John Farnham's like in your DNA like me. That's because 0:16:18.400 --> 0:16:19.280 that's my favorite of that. 0:16:19.720 --> 0:16:21.760 Yeah, I think that's why. I think that's why I'm 0:16:21.800 --> 0:16:24.520 just hearing once again his tone and knowing how John's 0:16:24.520 --> 0:16:26.280 Farner would have done it. It was just a nice 0:16:26.400 --> 0:16:32.400 Jaman version of it. We've got too strong, We stick 0:16:32.520 --> 0:16:39.360 to again, Luck Honey curing me, We've got. 0:16:39.480 --> 0:16:43.000 Too strong, rich enough. 0:16:43.000 --> 0:16:52.640 Forever Luck River this and then we're moving on to 0:16:53.240 --> 0:16:56.680 Marshall Hamburger, who Ricky Lee is real. We spoke at 0:16:56.720 --> 0:16:58.480 the start of the season, so we really hadn't seen 0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:00.960 many episodes. I think we've seen one or two and 0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:03.840 she was already like talking him up. He's a he's 0:17:03.880 --> 0:17:06.679 an unusual person, like he's not your everyday person who 0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:10.000 see on TV. But every time he sings incredible. What 0:17:10.080 --> 0:17:12.360 can you tell us about what he's what's the Hamburger? 0:17:12.520 --> 0:17:15.360 Like? The Hamburger is what you see is what you get. 0:17:15.480 --> 0:17:19.000 That guy is such a such a sweet person, such 0:17:19.040 --> 0:17:22.639 a sweet human being. He's so awkward, which is so 0:17:22.920 --> 0:17:25.920 nighe He's just I love it once again when he talks, 0:17:25.920 --> 0:17:27.880 because you're like, what's he going to say? Because he's 0:17:27.920 --> 0:17:30.080 going to tell you exactly how he's feeling and not 0:17:30.160 --> 0:17:32.560 going to sugarcoat it at all. But he's just loving 0:17:32.600 --> 0:17:35.920 the ride. He's he's so talented, like him with a piano, 0:17:36.200 --> 0:17:38.240 he can do anything. And he's come from such a 0:17:38.920 --> 0:17:42.359 great family, the Hamburgers, who are a musical family, and 0:17:42.440 --> 0:17:44.320 you can see that. But he does remind me of 0:17:44.400 --> 0:17:47.000 a character of The Big Bang Theory that's now on 0:17:47.119 --> 0:17:50.120 a talent show, and he's just he's just right it away. 0:17:50.520 --> 0:17:52.320 So with his songs, I think you might you and 0:17:52.359 --> 0:17:53.919 I might have the same. On this one, I'm going 0:17:54.000 --> 0:17:56.359 to say, born this Way, what okay, we're on the 0:17:56.359 --> 0:17:59.280 wrong track. We're on the wrong track. Bank easily was 0:17:59.359 --> 0:18:01.879 the Daryl brave Way version of As the Days Go By, 0:18:02.080 --> 0:18:05.560 because that song is so iconic, but he managed to 0:18:05.640 --> 0:18:08.200 do something about that song that I'd never seen, Like 0:18:08.320 --> 0:18:10.639 I've heard people sing that song, you know, and we 0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:12.760 grew up in pubs and clubs going when we're here 0:18:12.800 --> 0:18:15.360 in Australia, so we hear cover band singing that song 0:18:15.480 --> 0:18:17.320 all the time, like you just see that all the time. 0:18:17.760 --> 0:18:19.639 But what he did with that song was made it 0:18:19.720 --> 0:18:22.640 his own in a way that I can honestly say, 0:18:23.080 --> 0:18:25.240 I think it sounds better than Darryl Braithway. 0:18:26.680 --> 0:18:28.040 Test Cool. 0:18:29.760 --> 0:18:36.919 Closest Coot Clubs. 0:18:38.520 --> 0:18:45.440 John Bag. I agree with you, actually do agree with you. 0:18:46.160 --> 0:18:48.440 You agree? Okay, Well, we got William, who's the last 0:18:48.480 --> 0:18:50.080 person that we have left in the top six. I 0:18:50.119 --> 0:18:53.359 cannot believe this top six is it is just is crazy, Okay. 0:18:53.440 --> 0:18:56.600
