We won't be voting in our house given that we are tied 2 votes to 2.
But it's down to Nik (http://www.idolme.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=13) and Rosita (http://www.idolme.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=14).
Entertainment legent Sir Howard Morrison has spoken out about Rosita and her weight issues (http://www.stuff.co.nz/stuff/0,2106,3444995a13975,00.html) - something noone else had been brave enough to say. While we despair of the anorexia and too-thinness that gets fed to us by the media the health implications of obesity can't be ignored either.
At the end of the day NZ Idol (and the other flavours) is a marketing tool for the record labels to get a one hit wonder and identify new talent. It's important for the contestants, therefore, to ensure they are marketable. I don't think Rosita's voice is enough - she needs to bring more to the table. It may be wrong but it's also the way the industry works.
