    From what I read it was done to make Charles's dream come true, but you don't seem to think he's entitled to fulfill it for some reason :/

    Fans come in all shapes, sizes, sex and age - let's not discriminate ;)

    This was what I was trying to say but you put it so much better!

    Either way now, whatever his intention, by cancelling the comp no one gets to live their 'dream'

    LMAO it reminds me of the morning star comp to choose the most beautiful woman or something - MSE ensured Gail Platt won hahaha :D:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    I remember that too! :D Everyone voted for Gail for a laugh! Poor Gail must have been in her glory.....they even gave her a part in ET! :whistle:
    Big thanks to all who contribute to the forums. Be lucky everyone and be safe!

    I thought the reason the comp was cancelled was the fact that someone may have created a script that automated the voting from 500 different computers across the world?

    The posts re the article say it all really

    After reading the article and the comments I'm seriously worried for my sense of humour. I appear to have misplaced it ....

    funniest bit was that last years comp was won a by a school for the deaf. Would have loved to see her reaction (even though i like her music)

    I actually think it would have been brilliant for her to perform for the school. Deaf people can feel the music through vibration so they could still have enjoyed it plus the the publicity would have been great for both singer and school :)

    Read an interview once with an interpreter for the deaf who interpreted at concerts. Sounded quite intense, and quite creative.
