RockStar: The Storm has passed
Filed under: RockStar: Supernova;I know the guys in Supernova pay attention to the votes, and Storm was
doing her second week in the bottom three and had been in danger for several weeks. But can they honestly say that Lukas is a superior performer and would have a better shot at successfully fronting Supernova than Storm Large (photo, left, by Monty Brinton for CBS)? If she was in the Final 4, I would say the best were truly last, but it would not be reality TV without an obvious injustice toward the end.
One of the points of debate at the beginning of this show was, would Supernova really consider having a woman front their band? The last two weeks seem to seriously put into question whether the fans want a woman fronting Supernova, which is kind of sad because Dilana and Storm are a powerful duo.
Dilana saved herself with a searing, desperate performance tonight.
Obviously, I think the fans made the right choice among the guys. Magni week-in and week-out has been the best performer, and Toby has had an incredible string of shows. They’ve got to be the frontrunners going into the finale.
So, who’s gonna win? We had some good comments from last night’s post, and let’s hear some more. Make your case for your favorite rocker (ugh, I’m sounding like Brooke again) by hitting the comment button, below.

OK —
I was the one who said Storm was required for SN to sell tickets….I guess they have to settle on her as the opening act…
What interests me is that as they wind up this competition, nobody seems to WANT to win the job. Are they all there exclusively for their own publicity? Of course that is a factor. Are they afraid to beat their newfound “family” from the spot? To me the performances were at the highest right as the ones everyone knew were NOT going to make it were being finished off. The true “contenders” were really showing their entertainment value which justified to everyone why they were to be kept. But since then, the competitive fire is only smoldering. This band has to be fronted by someone with charisma, creativity, and vocal talent. At times Magni seems to have the combination, but then to point out that his limited grasp of the English language limits his songwriting ability…I am not sure what impact that has. Toby seems to have the package at this time, but I am interested to see more “uniqueness”. Lukas hasn’t changed at all through the whole competition (IMO). Dilana…I am not sure where her head is…maybe now that Storm is gone, she may get back to the commanding performances she started with, but obviously she doesn’t add songwriting.
Can the band add Magni and Dilana as the winners?
