Rock Star - Supernova Review

Carla Lynne Hall is our Featured Rock Star SuperNova Guest Reporter.

Can you believe that there are 3 weeks left to this competition? Things are getting tight...

At the top of the show, after Brooke Burke draws us in with her lovleliness, we see a recap of last week's performance of Supernova with Dilana, who can taste the gig. She was the first one to play with Supernova on an original tune, and "now I can't imagine anyone else" fronting the band.

Then we see Song Selection, which featured TWO original songs for the Rockers. Storm and Ryan went to bat for the first one, and Storm offered to put on gloves and box Ryan for it. Ryan didn't want to fight her, but if you ask me, I think Ryan knew that he'd be in for a hurting if he accepted. In the end, Ryan got the original, and Storm told him, "You better kill it."

For the other original, Patrice was fighting for that: "I will stand up for two days, and not eat or sleep." Magni felt that Patrice should have it because she's been in the Bottom Three the longest. Storm didn't push, so Patrice got it. Storm ended up picking "Cryin'" by Aerosmith, which was a song everyone else was avoiding due to its difficulty. She agreed on Cryin because it was the song that "everyone else is afraid of".

Next was "Every Breath You Take" that Toby and Dilana both wanted very badly. This time, Toby told Dilana that she would have to run around the pool naked for the song. And she did! For a moment, can I say how much fun these Song Selection challenges are becoming? Between Toby and Dilana running around naked, I'm having a great time howling at my TV. My neighbors must think I've lost my mind!

When we get back to the studio, Dave asks Storm about giving up on the songs again. She said that she loved the Rockers, and wanted to see them rock out too. Being a nice person was good, "but in a competition, it's not so good." But Storm is a sweetheart, and she's talented. She'll be okay.

Gilby also brought his dog, Chopper, to the Supernova judges box, where he stayed for the whole show. Did anyone see Tommy Lee licking tongues with Chopper at the end of the show? Chopper was cute and well-behaved, I'll give you that, but I'm not sure that I'd be french kissing Gilby's song unless I was trying to do an original tune for Song Selection

Patrice - Beautiful Thing
Patrice's original song was a rocking song, but it didn't grab me. Choosing an original song is a risk, but I wasn't sure if I could see Supernova doing it. Regardless, performing an original tune on international TV is an awesome opportunity.

Dave: "Congratulations for kicking off the show with an original tune. Great song, but I'll say what I said to Zayra. If that's the kind of music you want to do, you should try for a solo career."

Tommy: "It was slightly happy for us, but we have the technology. We could work with that.

Jason: "How was it to showcase your original song for the largest audience ever?"

Patrice: "Amazing...Thank you!"

Magni - Smells Like Teen Spirit

Power. Power. Power. Voice! Well done, Magni!

Dave: "Awesome Job. Vocally it was great. What I love about you is that you know how to show angst when a song calls for angst."

Jason: "How did it feel? The energy coming from the stage was great!"

Tommy: "Why didn't you play guitar?" Magni's response was that he wanted to move around on stage more, and Tommy replied, "You can play it, smash it, get rid of it, and move on."

Dave liked that idea: "Before the season is over, I want to see something broken!"
