Hi Alex, Where
do you get your amazing hats from? and what gel do you use on your hair
as i have had it cut like you? |

Alex Parks is the most unique artist I have heard for a long time. She is
the first who could actually gain serious commercial success. The emotion
in her singing is incredible and I cried during one of her performances.
I have one fear and that is the money men will not realise what Joe Public
want and will have her churning out cover versions. The music industry has
lost its bottle and hopefully Alex can restore some credibility by retaining
her originality. She is not a clone and she is the real deal. She is absolutely
gorgeous and sexy as well and that is my primal aspect of my persona showing
through. Her talent is what will rocket her to the top. If she manages to
retain control of her career and the music industry idiots let her run she
will be massive. Long live ALEX. Love you loads Alex and good luck for the
future. Cannot wait for your career to take off. |

Hi Just like to say best of luck for the future , the moment you started
singing 'Beautiful' to get in to the Academy it was obvious you are a very
special talent. you captured the nations heart and imagination - enjoy the
suceess. |

Seeing Lexi on TOTP was good. Did TOTP deliberately put Lexi's genuine and
unadorned performance between the hyped-up (some say sophisticated, we say
manufactured!!) Sophie E-B and Britney? The contrast was overwhelming. It
wasn't surprising that Lexi was nervous in such company......even with a
band (ah..but not "her" band yet) behind her. We listened and thought: "Great
song Lexi, what d'ya make of all these people liking your music and liking
you even more. Coming up the pub after?" It must be Cornwall in Lexi's veins
that makes her so different and appealing: something real and close to the
people compared to the stars of "industrial" music. She seems like our sister/daughter
and we so want her to enjoy it all. We do. |

Hi, I think Alex is great, and I can-not stop listening to her, Alex has
a very special voice, which makes me cry everytime I hear her. I have watched
the final back on video everyday since it was on, I just love hearing her
voice, and cannot wait until the record comes out, and for Alex to make
a video. |

Alex Congratulations. You have the potential and the talent to be a true
pop goddess. But please, think of the millions of youngsters you will influence
and give up smoking. It will help to preserve your voice too, and you have
a long career in front of you. I hope you have the strength of character,
the support of your friends and family and a responsible management team
to help you survive. Cheers Stuart H |

Alex is the best female singer to emerge in the UK since Dido. Your sound
is a cross between Annie Lennox & Dido. I look forward to your album being
released as I definatley will be buying it. I hope your version of Yellow
will be on it. As for FA you had no other competition. No one else came
close. When I saw you at the Trafford Centre In Manchester I just thought,
she's already a star. Go for it Alex. You're the number one. |

Dear Alex, You have done us all so proud, you are a inspiration to us all.
Never has an artist brought tears to my eyes like you managed to do, to
me...I'm starting to well-up just thinking about it. I have not stopped
listening to the 4 songs on my fame academy album of yours. Every night
i listen to them on my personal CD player. I live in Cornwall and sometimes
work at Porthowan not too far away from your home town/village. I teach
I.T. skills for Truro College. When you won and visited back down to Cornwall
for a short time you held a radio interview with 91Èȱ¬ Radio Cornwall, I didn't
know this at the time and I was only 500 yards opposite in Truro College
Haven House helping students. Anyway hope you are enjoying all the fame
and attention you're getting you go girl...do it for you, because its what
you want and so deserve. Love from one of many devoted fans (can't wait
for your first single to be released) |

a great great gift, and a lovely smile to boot, all the very best for the
future, YOU WILL MAKE IT, be strong, and keep Alex the Alex we all voted
for, Take care XXXXX |

Where from here... ? After I heard Alex sing 'Beautiful' I knew she was
going to win FA. But what's going to happen now ? A number one hit before
the end of the year ? No doubt about it. A number one album ? Of course.
But than ? I sincerely hope she won't be the next one-day-fly, because her
potential is great. I can only hope she and the people behind her are thinking
'long-term'. But I'm afraid... Heraclitus VII, Rotterdam |

Jon
Alex - you have been No.1 since the very beginning! You have an incredible
voice and power to personalize the song so that many people can relate to
what you are singing. I am so pleased that the Cornish girl won this competition
as my husband and I love Cornwall. Just keep your head above water and be
yourself. Well done! |
|
Bethany
Alex you were the only one that had style and a good singing voice . I hope
your single goes to number 1 . You were great every week and you were great
to be the only one who was not in the bottom three . I called my hamster
Alex and i have got a hat and t-shirt the same as yours . It must be great
to be the winner of FAME ACADEMY . Good luck in the music buisness . Bye

I think Alex is the best proformers produced by a tv program. She is sooooooo
cool and as soon as both her album and singles come out im gonna buy them.
Rock on Alex and remember YOUR THE BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Geoff,
Knebworth & Rosie, Falmouth
Great single Lexi and we're looking forward to the first album..it's all
work for you eh?. I bet, like us, you hear how the producers have got a
little, just a little bit in the way of the raw emotion of your voice. We
reckon you'd like a band behind you, with whom you can share the music as
you make it, make sure the producers do what you want, as well as being
mates to offset all the hard slog of making the music. Anyway, you make
us feel as if we are almost there in person....so hope that helps you to
go on singing and writing songs for us all. |

alex, not sure if you ever read these things, but we met on friday nite
at a bar the name of a sweet. i had a blueprint tshirt and scruffy blonde
hair, and i gave your mate (bloke blonde) my no. with truth written on it.
if you read this, it would be very nice if u got in touch, would like to
go there again. ali x |

I like a lot of music Alex but truthfully, you are the only singer ever
to have put a big lump in my throat. The first time you sang on the Academy
my heart swelled with admiration for you. Long may your success continue.
I just cannot wait till your album hits the shops. |

Phoebe,

Alex is the biggest inspiration to me that there ever has been. Each time
I hear her sing the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. And her voice
is so moving it's wonderful. I am so happy for her that she won and she
deserves every little bit of what she get. I really believe that Alex is
in this for the music and not just for being a celebrity, I hope that alex
get's really far because she has so much talent and I will definetly buy
every one of her singles and albums! I love you Alex! |

Big congrats Alex! You did it. This is the start of something amazing for

do what feels right. Big Love |

Nessi,

Congratulations Alex, you did it! I thought fame acadamy would just be humdrum
karaoke but then I heard you and your voice really knocked me off my feet
and still does. Your voice is fantastic and the way you sing really hits
me emotionally and gives me amazing, emotional rush, so amazing that I get
welled up with tears. When you sing (especially emotional songs), you really
mean it and I get emotional too. I think you are a very special girl, because
you never seem to get as self infatuated or arrogant like other people in
your position. You kicked off with the song 'beautiful' and you are beautiful
indeed. With your voice, attitute, modsty and inner and outer beauty, you
are the most beautiful person I've ever seen in the whole industry. I eagerly
await your single and album release and I know you are going to be a massive
star. I am missing hearing you sing as it was the highlight of my week and
I look forward to hearing you again. The clip I heard of your new single
was fantastic, must buy it. In my opinion, you are the greatest solo female
artist.....EVER and you will go from strength to strength. With all my love
and best wishes. |

I normally don't like commercial music and in general singing competitions.
I have never been anybody's fan in my life. My tastes range from Mozart
to the Led Zeppelin, and I like in general all good music. And surprise,
surprise I came across in the English part of my life in a 19 year -old
girl who sings like E. Piaf when she was 40. Unbelievable. I had never thought
it would be possible to sing that way unless you have gone through all those
emotions throughout your life and only then you would probably have a very
slim chance of being able to express them with the same depth, strength,
and intensity as Alex does. Alex, I think you are 40 years old and you are
French. ST, Italy |

Geoff,
Knebworth
Alex loves making music doesn't she!! What goes with all the fame must be
a bit of a bore...or do I mean chore? It's great to see a celebrity dress
cool.....anyone know how I can get my hair spiky like that! Hope Alex can
stay cool and calm about all the fame fuss.............so deserved, but
must be a bit of drag.....hope Alex will be able to get a frequent 'fix'
of Cornwall pub and friends...and music of course, to keep her sane! My
dream come true would be to see Alex play Knebworth to 100 000+ including
me of course. I tell you what...Children in Need (Alex rumoured to be singing
on the Prog.) this year is going to a bit special!! |
|
Dave
CONGRATULATIONS ALEX (and Cornwall).
"Every little thing she does is magic..."
Wasn't sure if you would make it all the way when I first saw you, even
so you still managed to blow me away with your performance. Then, each time
you took the stage you just got better 'n' better! You are beautiful, your
singing is magnificent; at times sending shivers down my spine. Don't feel
pressured or anything but - I really can't wait for an album to come out.
Dave. |

Sarah,

Well Done Alex! You deserved to win Fame Academy 2003, with a talent like
yours it would have been a crime if you didn't win. You were great to watch
on the show and even better to listen to on the live showdowns. You voice
is truly amazing and I can't wait to buy your album and see you in concert.
You are going to be a HUGE star if you're not already! Congratulations Alex,
you have made the South proud! |
|
Di,
Plymouth
Just want to say - (like millions of others have already said!) Good luck
to Alex in all she does - you really do rock Girl!! I think Alistair would
fit in well in a boy band and Carolynne in a girl band - but Alex is very
individual and i'm sure will be around for many years to come.
Also may I just say Ithink the duet she did with Daniel Bedingfield on the
final show was awesome - I smile everytime I watch it, she wasn't put off
by his status at all and really held her own - you go girl you deserve all
the success that is waiting for you!! x |

Well done ALEX, you were totally wicked! Good Luck and we will be buying
the album! There were lots of great people in the house but you were outstanding!

album sweetie! |

Jim
Thay, Netherlands
I have seen Fame Academy from the Netherlands and I found it very entertaining
and I loved every minute of it. It is also amazing to see how much talent
and potential there is present when I see the shows. Alex has also been
my favorite FA2 student, since I incidently started watching it from the
beginning. She has great potential as a singer-songwriter. Good luck Alex.
I can't wait when your album is release here. May your talent never founder!!

Helen,

We're not whispering anymore! Cornwall is shouting loud and proud about
Alex...well done and all the best for what I'm sure will be a deserved long
and successful career in music....just remember Cornwall when it comes to
touring! |

Janet,
London
Alex, you've come into your own and I am so happy for you. I literally jumped
for joy and cried with happiness on Saturday night. It is so refreshing
to see a new young talent that doesn't try to sell herself with her body
or sing with the bland tin can sound of the boy bands, the girl bands, and
urban street-cred monotony. Having spent my youth listening to some wonderful
musicians you've restored my faith, now that I am coming up to 60, in decent
music. You span the generations - from tweenies to wrinklies. You span a
whole history of wonderful music from Woody Guthrie onwards..you are up
there with the greats. Your voice stops me in my tracks. The emotion in
your voice makes my soul sing. Keep the faith: keep to your path. And if
you have any problems just stay cool and surf them. I'll be first outside
the record store when your single and album are released. |
|
Geoff,
Knebworth
I'm not a fan of Fame Acad. and the likes.....so I was stopped dead by you
Alex....you've put the "real" back into "reality". Not another entertaining
good wannabee but, like great performers, you draw us in, you reach out
to say ....share this moment..sad or happy, we stretch out our hearts to
comfort, to say...hey, I hear you, we're here. Alex, people are saying what
great singers you're like......we're just trying to understand why you've
captivated us...........I'm old so I remember Edith Piaf..she was fragile
and strong and raw emotion...that's you...you reach out with such naked
emotion because that's what you know, it's you inside, untainted......and
we're drawn in immediately. I can hear you singing all those great rock
ballads..."Help me make it through the night"...."Be with me"........even
"Bring on the Clowns"...but whatever you sing, it will always be you. You're
real special. And when all the media and blast of celebrity hit you hardest...we're
still going be here.....reaching out to you.......protecting you,,,saying...sing
once more for you...for us. No wonder Cornwall is such a great place, Alex,
it runs in your veins and you've let us a see a bit of it. Thanks Alex,
go well! |

Chris,

I have been mesmerised by Alex's extraordinarily controlled power in her
delivery - completely uneffected and natural - and all from a waif-like
wee girl! She was my 'vote' (and I did regularly!) from the start. I was
spellbound from the first hearing. I heard Lennox and Moyet in her - not
that she was mimicking at all - just a similar power and sincerity. Far
from mimicking (unlike the drop-dead pretty Carolynne who did a wonderful
karaoke of Shinia Twain) she totally reinterpreted some very idiosyncratic
and iconic numbers and diminished them in no way by her treatment. I freely
admit that I wept freely during her performances I was so moved. On top
of her immense talent she has a disarmingly unassuming personality and happens
to be as pretty as paint, too! She'll go all the way for sure: Jonathan
Ross said it all when he compared her to the 'greats'. I'll be first in
the queue when her albums get released! By the way - I'm a 55 year old married
father of two............ and I've holidayed in Cornwall every year for
the past twelve years! |

For once dreams do come true!!!! We are so happy, happy that talent won,
thanks to all that voted for Alex, that raided the piggy banks, that have
gone into debt like us to help Alex win!!! We loved that all during Fame
Academy 2003 Alex was never desperate to win at all costs, we are so happy
that we have a winner like Alex Parks...
ALEX PARKS.... Her voice, her talent, her personality, her look... From
day one through her voice and emotion and just being her, has reached out
to so many people... I cannot think of a person that has such an impact
coming out of a reality TV programme... We are lucky to have in these last
ten weeks seen the beginning of something very special!!!!...

I thought and think she's great ! But if winning the Academy is 'the best
thing that could happen to her' ? Time will tell. I can only hope for the
best... and that's what I'm going to do. No more covers... no 'one day fly'...
no new 'friends'... New songs... great album(s)... growth... The potential
is there... Thanks for the possibility to write this. Greetings, Henk/Heraclitus

From the very first week, Alex was the only one to send tingles up my spine.
Thank goodness the joker in the pack has gone, and we can concentrate on
three really good singers.
The others are commercially good, but there is only one uniquely talented
artiste, and that has always been Alex. Forget Sinead and all those. I remember
when Helen Shapiro first hit the charts with her own unique talent, and
she is still going strong! |

All Ihave to say is go girl. We may whisper in Cornwall but you shout as
loud as you like on Saturday mate.good luck from us all down ere! |

I am getting slightly nervous now that the end is near. I fear the likes
of Alistair getting through - yet another David Sneddon, a 1 hit wonder.
I would like to think of Alex getting through and offering us years of good,
powerful, heartfelt music. We have enough boy bands etc, we need something
different. Alistair's voters will be centred around young girls who will
forget him.
It also bothers me that people have confused Fame Academy with Big Brother
and since Alistair started clowning around and acting up to the camera his
popularity has grown. Alex, what can I say, for a 19 year old she has been
the most mature student, full of honesty. I hope we can all go that little
bit further this week and vote for Alex as much as we can afford. Guess
they will be going to great lengths in Yorkshire for Ali. I am Welsh and
all the way through my money has been going on Alex. Lets' all go for it,
give our support to the Cornish voters.
GOOD LUCK ALEX, YOU DESERVE THIS WIN. |

Hey, i just want to tell Alex how much we love her. It's not just me but
everyone in Cornwall. We love you Alex. You go girl! Show them what us Cornish
are made of! |

C'mon Cornwall you know the number!! Pick up the phone and dial it!! Good
luck Alex, we're all behind you. |

Jane,

A new truly original star who makes any song her own. Great to listen to
and great to watch. I cant wait to buy her first album and hope she includes
her version of Tainted Love which was brilliant! |
|
Carolyn
No way is Alex up her own a**e!! I wouldn't listen to what Peter has to
say anyway! Alex is a star & deserves to win, she has a beautiful unique
voice which moves you, she is stunning, vulnerable & funny. We love you
Alex. Good luck for Saturday! Carolyn |

Andrew,

Every now and then something, or someone hits you in the back of the throat.
In my generation - the first Beatles song, the first few chords of "Satisfaction"
by the Stones. "Meet me on the corner" by White on Black, a sadly missed
Bristol Folk Group now gracefully retired but absolutely stunning in their
field, Eurovision Song Contest and ABBA. A defining moment. Now we have
ALEX. What a girl and what a voice. Totally recognisable and I look forward
to many albums in the coming years whether she wins or loses. But she's
gong to win, of course... |
|
Alex
i think you rule and trust me so do many other people! cant wait for you
to bring out a cd. U R THE BEST xxx |

alex park's rendition of "I don't wanna talk about it" is something I'd
definitely pick off the shelves if it ever makes it to a store! |

I just wanna say that I've never got in2 any of the talent programs on tv,
my mum watches all of them an made me watch alex singing coldplay's yellow
one evening when i went round, i really wasn't intrested but once she started
it i made her play it again, alex has a very unique voice, no matter what
anyone says she has something there that no one else on the show has, and
whether she's moody or reminds people of kevin from harry enfield so what,
she's in the acadamy for her ability to sing not impress people with her
mood swings, yes we've all heard of bonnie tyler an all the other's but
they are from a different generation, the charts are filled with endless
songs that, popular or not, all sound so very similer 2 the last one before
it, its nice to see someone as young as alex use a talent that she has and
go somewhere with it, she has a style all her own an no one can take that
from her, i know i dont watch fame acadamy for any other reason than alex,
good luck mate you've got my vote x |

I was in the audience on Saturday night, and Alex was fantastic, I know
the song was not her best but this was a very stylized song, and Alex did
her best with what she had to work with, even Alex's poorest performance
was better than most of the others best performances.
She had such stage presence and charisma it really did not matter. I have
been fortunate to have been able to interview most of the evicted students
as they left the academy (many thanks beeb) and most of them have been in
agreement that Alex has a fantastic talent and will go on to win this show.
We have a very large and active website, which not only has members of the
public as members but ex students from both series of Fame Academy and the
consensus of opinion is that Alex is the winner, and has been virtually
from day one. Visit the website at:

Alex struggled with her Blondie song tonight. This was here poorest
performance so far. I hope viewers take her previous excellent performances
into account when voting this week, as I want Alex to stay in. |

Katie,

FANTASTIC - She's got the voice, the looks and the persona...what more
does she need? Winning fame academy will be like a walk in the park for
her! Good luck and how about a performance of Adriene by The Calling?! Alex
to win! X Katie Middlesex |

Becca,

Hi! Am a huge Alex fan and can't wait to buy her album!! but am slightly
worried at the moment as the whole Fame Academy "talent" show suddenly seems
to have become a popularity contest!! How is it that the likes of Alistair
and James got voted in above Carolynne, Peter and Paris? I am screaming
out to everyone (not just in Cornwall) to either vote that few times extra
or to complain or even refuse to watch and take part, because I can see
the "middle of the road man" Alistair taking the title, not that there is
anything wrong with middle of the road, but come on Alistair over a rare
talent like Alex?!?! Please Please people act now!! Alex has made Fame Academy
credable, and we don't need another David Snedon!! |

Alex isn't Sinead O'Connor, Annie Lennox, Björk, etcetera... But she
has the POTENTIAL to become a star. If this... and if that... of course.
I hope she stays herself. I hope she won't be a one day wonder. I hope she
will be around for many, many years to come. As a singer/songwriter, that
way I can enjoy what she does. And as a human being, because I think she's
special. Why ? I don't know, but that goes for all the people who are special
to me. Saturday, 'Heart of glass' of Debbie Harry (Blondie). I'm looking
forward to it ! |

I think Alex has such great talent both vocally and in her songwriting.
The most amazing thing about her though, is that she genuinely doesn't seem
to realise it!....she's fantastic! |

HIYA, I WOULD REALLY LOVE TO HEAR ALEX SING MIRACLE OF LOVE BY EURYTHMICS,

IT. GOOD LUCK ALEX. |

Is Alex going to be releasing "Tainted Love" as a single? I really hope
so. It is just absolutely FANTASTIC... better even than Marc Almonds, it
sends shivers down my spine...such emotion. Good luck to Alex for this week,
though I know she doesn't need it.
<ALEX FULL, MODERATOR>
Thanks for your comment Jo. As far as we know, there are no plans top
release "Tainted Love" as a single, but Alex is on a new Fame
Academy Album singing "Words" by the Bee Gees. |

Vicky,

Wow she is fantastic! So pleased she is doing so well, shows all the
critics out there that Cornwall isn't full of worsels!She has an amazing
talent, I just hope that living away from Cornwall isn't too hard for her,
i tried moving away but came back again, city life isn't for me. Stick with
it babe! Do it for KERNOW! |

I think Alex is an absolute star! She has such an amazing voice and
seems like a lovely person. Good luck to her and I'll be voting for her
all the way. She is doing the South proud! |

I just love what Alex is doing. Seeing (and hearing) her perform makes the
hairs in my neck stand out (in a positive way of course). Like my fellow
countryman Henk I'm hoping that her CD(s) will be availble in Holland too,
but if not I'll get one of my UK friends to send me one!! |

Pat,

Alex is a good singer, but not unique, hasn’t anyone heard any music
from Bonnie Tyler, Cerys Matthews, (Catatonia), or Buffy St. Marie. Its
just that no-one else is singing like her AT THE MOMENT. And that moody
teenager look, please !!!, every time I see you I think of Harry Enfield
doing his ‘Kevin’ the teenager sketch. You’re young Alex, you have great
friends by all accounts, your family love you, and you live in Cornwall,
cheer up for Pete’s sake. |

Spacemonkey
Alex might be good, but there are people with more talent in the singing/songwriting/instrument
playing groups than her. I honestly can't see what the fuss is about her.
Becase shes cornish? She is not original nor brilliant. Frankly i think
she shouldnt be on there. |
|
|
Poppy
Alex is the best. She has a great voice and a brilliant personaliaty. |
|

Emma
Carlyon
I think that Alex should be given as much local support as possible.
She is a good example of a person who has taken advantage of the opportunities
that she has been given by the community where she lives and is not so provincial
not to look at the bigger picture! Any person who believes that she has
talent (especially those who live in rural or isolated communities) should
get on their telephones and vote for her. Best of luck! Go see the what
is there Alex and remember who you are! |

Alex is original, has a great voice and is beautiful. she makes Fame
academy the best programme on T.V. |

I've never been so captivated by performer as I am with Alex! She is
fantastic! Phenominal voice, gorgeous eyes, witty, unique and proud of who
she is! What more could a girl ask for???!!! Im in love! |

I personally don't get the fascination with Alex. People think she's
soooooooo original, but it's all been done before. Sinead O'Connor, anyone? |
|

Paul,

Alex is utterly amazing. She electrifies her audience before she even
opens her mouth to sing. Good luck to her - she is an obvious winner! |
|

Fran,
Truro
Alex is really herself. She is the only singer i know to actually have
that uniqeness. I actually had the pleasure of getting Alex's first ever
autogragh. I got it by hand though! She is really sweet. The best thing
about Alex, is that she can stick to being herself and not change into an
ignorant singer like somee others. I wish her all the luck, and i know she
will do really well if not win!!!!!!! Will alex be able to return back to
her normal Cornwall life after the academy? |

Mike
Feehan Garrabost, Isle of Lewis
Alex is an original. Nobody will ever sound like her or reproduce the unique
presence she has on stage. For a girl of her age the maturity she brings
to a number, whilst also sounding fragile, is amazing. She took a number
tonight which has been round the circuit a couple of times before and she
nailed it to her mast. Whatever happens on Fame Academy this young lady
is going to be around for many years to come if she carries on this way
and continues to improve at the same rate. As an ex-Cornish resident I feel
that she does her home county proud. |
|
|
Fran,
Truro
Alex came over to my house and trust me she rocks! She was talking to
me about how nervous she was and that she wants all her friends with her.
She was really sweet and I am supporting her all the way. I felt really
nervous for her but now I know she'll win! just before she went in to the
academy, me, my bro's and Emily (Alex's best friend) went in to town and
got her a bracelet which had a message on the back. She is really cool.
|

Spikey
I've had the great privellage of working with Alex and I have to say it's
fantastic to see the girl who was so nervous about singing in a pub with
me 3 months ago now singing in front of millions! I hope the public continue
to support her as I know she has much more that everyone is yet to see and
hear. I would like to see her lucky red/black stripey hat make an appearance
in 'the circle of fear' though. |

Just wanna say I love Alex's voice and her personality and looks she is
great at everything and so emotional I love her. |

I hope... I hope... she will remain Alex Parks after winning this years
Fame Academy. Sinead O'Connor, Björk, Suzanne Vega, Annie Lennox, Madonna
(in better times ;-) ), ... That kind of star, maybe bigger. Not as an impersonator,
but in her own way. If that's not possible, I hope she'll be the next one
to leave the academy. You don't have to be big, to be beautiful. :-) (although...
I hope Alex's CD will be available in the Netherlands).
<ALEX FULL, MODERATOR>
Great message Henk. Where abouts in the Netherlands are you from? Soon
we will be streaming her new single on this site - so keep checking!
Henk/Heraclitus VII
Thank's ! I'm from Rotterdam... and will keep checking your site. After
being present during the birth of my own two stars it's nice to be present
when a new world-star is born... oops... I think I'm a fan (and that at
the age of 55...). :-) Greetz, Henk. |

Alex sing a Sinead O'Conner song 'nothing compares to you', you have the
talent and the ability girl. So come on mate sing for Cornwall?
<ALEX FULL, MODERATOR>
Thanks for your colourful email Lyn - keep the comments coming! |

Mavis

We
believe Alex could sing one of Buffy Sainte-Marie songs maybe Soldier
Blue, Alex is a singer of that generation of songs.

Zoe, Redruth
I think that Alex is so cool it proves that Cornwall hasn't just got
the sea and pasties it's got talent! I hope that us Cornish will stick
by her for her chance to win this one in a life time experience, she's
fantastic.

Hey they
are all stars, I would not want the world in my face like what these guys
are having done to them. However, if these guys want fame and fortune,
they are going to take the rough times with the smooth. There are a load
of people who know someone in F Acad at the moment, Alex is a friend of
mine, i would not want that attention!!!! However, Alex you know i'm here
for ya, you got my number. I wish you all Good Fortune and Sucess, Alex
I'll see you for a beer when you get out of Boot Camp XX a singer of that
generation of songs.

Just listend to alex prepering for saturday's show (TAINTED LOVE). If this
perfomance is any thing to go by fantastic excelent keep it up Alex. Can't
wait till sat. |

Stephen,

I would love to hear Alex sing a Sinead O'Connor track. "Nothing Comperes
To You" maybe. I think Alex's voice is stunning & have voted for
her every time. |
|

Justin,

I hope
Alex goes all the way. I think she has all the qualities she needs. She's
a good singer she is powerful she is good looking and she is from Cornwall.
|

Ben
Glass, Newquay
She's
got such a deep voice. It's as if there's something beyond what's being
sung. But unfortunately I think she'll lose out on the public vote because
of the number of young girls who vote.

Edward

I think listening
to Alex shows us that there are still some very classy singers around and
we hope that everybody will get behind Alex to ensure she wins. |

She's got a really powerful voice, I was so surprised when I heard
her. She's a lot like Sinead O'Connor. |

Fern
Brixham, Liskeard
She's a star in the making! I reccon she'll be in the last three.
I want to know what she misses most about being away from Cornwall. |
That
was a unique performance full of star quality. The lead
singer of Soft Cell would be standing back saying 'she
did better than we did'
