Rock Star INXS: Who Will Win?

I really enjoy the show "Rock Star: INXS,"  mainly because they actually sing GOOD music on that show. That is, until this week. On tonight's episode, poor Marty has been saddled with the Britney Spears pop song, "Baby One More Time."  Why oh why? Weren't the ratings high enough with Jordis's rendition of Nirvana's "Heart Shaped Box"?

I knew the good music was too good to be true. In any event, I think the whole competition is becoming pointless. It is obvious to me that Mig will be the winner.

Why will Mig win? He has all the elements needed to be a rock star. He has the look (funky hair, lean long body, tight striped pants). He has the rock star voice and moves. He doesn't cause any conflicts with the other singers (unlike JD). Plus, he's Australian, as are the members of INXS. Let's face it, Mig is a shoo-in.

So why continue this silly farce? It's still good entertainment. Yes, I am dreading the day when big-hearted, big-smiled Ty Taylor gets the boot. He is by far the best singer out of all of them, but do you really envision INXS being led by a mowhawked theater-loving singer? No, Ty will move on to bigger and better things and I will still be a fan.

JD, on the other hand, has tons of talent but has caused so much conflict and burned so many bridges with the others that I think he has ruined his chances of winning. He is my personal favorite-- he's nice to look at and has a sexy voice and charisma. Still, I think it's too little too late.

Jordis is my favorite as far as the women go, but come on-- do you really think INXS is going to choose a chick to front their band? Highly unlikely. Jordis is very young and has a lot to learn, so she should take this experience for what it is. I do love her voice, though.

So that's my prediction: Mig. In a few more weeks we'll know for sure.

UPDATE: I was totally wrong. JD Fortune won! Ha!
