After a summer-long audition, the Rockstar band formerly known as Supernova finally chose a singer tonight: Lukas Rossi.
It wasn't a surprise that Magni was the first of the final four to go. Though he performed his blistering rendition of "Fire" again, American audiences never really connected with the man from Iceland. We were a little more surpised that likeable Aussie beefcake Toby got booted next.
So it came down to Dilana and Lukas (who Dave Navarro said looked like they were headed out to a goth wedding). And between the two, Lukas gave the best performance of the evening with "Bittersweet Symphony." He'll fit in with the band just fine. We're not crying for Dilana though. They asked her to go on tour with the house band and Gilby Clarke offered to co-write and produce her album. LAist thinks she'll do fine as a solo artist.
What we are wondering, though, is what the boys were really talking about during their "deliberations." If they're about to make an important decision regarding their band's future, don't you think they would have made up their minds already or at least talked everything through before the show? Pepperoni or sausage? Jim Beam or Jack Daniels? How can we get Lukas to stop convulsing on stage?
Well, congratulations to Tommy Lee and the boys for finding their new lead singer. And maybe with Lukas up front, they can get Maybelline on board as a tour sponsor.
