It was soooo obvious that she was going to WIN!

I think that she deserved EVERY little bit of her victory, she's not only Beautiful but has shown her awesome talent & that she can be an entertainer.

Good for her & hopefully she goes far!!

Okay finally! somewhere I can actually post my two cents..

Ummmm I have been watching Canadian Idol and I can say that the girls suck and the guys are way better singers...

I also have a feeling (i think its always been the case though)  that people that are non-caucasian do not get very far in Canadian Idol! Just yesterday a girl (i think she is Pilipina)who all judges thought would get far got booted because Canada didnt vote for her.

 Do you guys think Canadian Idol is racist? I mean I am cheering on all the minority cuz they are the only ones that seem to be in the bottom all the time! Thats why I tend to stop watching after a while cuz then its just pure rockers...its always the same thing!

The main reason why minorities always seem to be in the bottom is because well......the pple who mainly vote are the caucasian Canadians and they seem to always be voting for their own regardless of talent in some cases.    Sad but true (in my opinion)

I'm not her dad. And this is not the first time I support Latin talent. She's the best thing that has happened to Latinos in Canada in the last 25 years. A winner, that is what we need to change the Salsa, Chacha, siesta looser stereotype.

johnny.... do you have to work yourself really hard to come up with these things?

Yes, the level of wittyness Marky has is too subtle to compensate for the humongous generational gap between us. I'm a dinosaur, so I don't understand the wit and the subteleties of young foroers. Not to mention the stress of the waiting.

Just curious... you wouldn't happen to be Eva's dad, would you?

 

ETA: MiMi's a dinosaur too... A purple one. We call him Markney. He's just goofy that way.

So Johnny, who did you vote for? I heard Lukas is a sure winner.

That's why you wanted Johnny to read your comment? Oh, MiMi, how long did you think about that one for? So sad...

Actually I just thought of it. But I wanted The Canuv to give us an update. I thought he'd post sooner.

So Johnny, who did you vote for? I heard Lukas is a sure winner.

The Canadian Idol Top 6: Stefani, Tyler, Craig, Ashley, Chad and EVA. Rob James was eliminated on Tuesday.

They go "unplugged" next Monday August 14, 8 pm at CTV. 

 

Canadian Idol night listening and voting comes back. Eva sings this Monday August 7 at 8 p.m. in CTV. These are the Top 7 finalists, so again, out of 12,000 contestants nation-wide we have a Latin-Canadian singer for the first time ever, in Canadian musical mainstream world, making it to the top.

If you are interested, listen to her on Monday night and, if you like her performance, support her by voting by phone during the two hours that follow the program.  

Last night she was voted among the bottom 3 contestants, together with two guys: Brandon and Chad. Next she was told she was staying in the competition and went back to the group of 7 finalists. Brandon was eliminated, though his last participation on Monday was the best.

Eva is now on the Top 7. They will sing classic rock songs this Monday August 7, at 8 p.m.

Es hasta las 11 p.m., no hasta las 10!!!

Esta noche Eva canta entre los 8 finalistas. A las 8 p.m. en Canadian Idol, CTV.

Eva sang very well last night. I think it'd be impossible for her not to sing well. It was all Rolling Stones songs, which are not really her strength. Still she did pretty well, so she should remain in the competition after tonight's elimination round, CTV at 8 p.m. From what I saw last night, it's likely that a young guy named Brandon gets the boot. The other one that I like very much is Sarah Loverock but she was not very good last night. Anyway, I am confident Eva will make it to the Top 8!

Eva cantó muy bien anoche. Creo que es imposible para ella no cantar bien. Todas las canciones fueron de los Rolling Stones, las que no son su fuerte. Sin embargo le fue muy bien, así que debería quedar dentro de la competencia, luego de la ronda eliminatoria esta noche.  CTV a las 8 p.m. De lo que vi anoche, es probable que elimien a un muchacho de nombre  Brandon. La otra que me gusta mucho es Sarah Loverock pero no estuvo muy bien anoche. De cualquier forma, tengo confianza que Eva quedará entre los 8 Finalistas!

Eva went into the TOP 9 last night! She'll sing next week Monday, 8 pm, CTV.

Esta noche en CTV, 8 p.m., Eva Avila en su primera actuación como parte de los TOP 10 de Canadian Idol.

Y luego del show, ¡a votar!










Toronto, ON (July 12, 2006) – Over 12,000 auditioned. Only 10 are left. After a massive 3.3 million votes were received following Monday and Tuesday’s performance episodes, the Canadian Idol Top 10 were revealed tonight live on CTV. Four competitors – Ashley Coles, 16, Caledonia, ON; Sheldon Elter, 27, Edmonton, AB; Keith Macpherson, 27, Winnipeg, MB; and Nancy Silverman, 19, Thornhill, ON - received the fewest votes and were eliminated from the competition. They now go home while 10 others begin rehearsals for next Monday’s first Canadian Idol Top 10 show, an expanded 90-minute broadcast live from Toronto’s John Bassett Theatre. Featuring guest star Nelly Furtado, the first Top 10 theme show pays tribute to “Canada Rocks!” with an all-Canadian song list.

** Media Note ** - Photography and audio clips from tonight’s show are available online on the Canadian Idol Media Centre at www.idolpix.ca.

The Canadian Idol Top 10 is comprised of five women and five men, ranging in age from 16 to 28 and hailing from Gibsons, BC to Upper Island Cove, NL. The 10 finalists represent Canada’s diverse musical talent, regional distinctions and rich history of musical excellence. There are three competitors from Ontario and one each from British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Quebec, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. Five of the 10 are teenagers. All will be household names before the summer is over.

Meet the Canadian Idol Top 10:

• Eva Avila, 19, Gatineau, QC
• Ashley Coulter, 23, Emeryville, ON
• Steffi DiDomenicantonio, 17, Orleans, ON
• Chad Doucette, 17, East Chezzetcook, NS
• Kati Durst, 26, Goderich, ON
• Rob James, 28, Winnipeg, MB
• Brandon Jones, 17, Quispamsis, NB
• Tyler Lewis, 20, Rockglen, SK
• Sarah Loverock, 25, Gibsons, BC
• Craig Sharpe, 16, Upper Island Cover, NL

Backed by a live, five-piece band, the Top 10 will perform in front of an audience of 1,000 screaming fans at Toronto’s John Bassett Theatre in the first of nine, Top 10 performance shows. The first Top 10 show is an expanded 90-minute special, airing Monday, July 17 from 8 – 9:30 p.m. ET/PT on CTV.

Hoy a las 7 y media de la noche en CTV, Canadian Idol dará los resultados de quienes son los 4 eliminados y quienes los 10 privilegiados que pasan a la siguiente ronda.

Luego de escuchar a los 14 concursantes, creo que Eva Avila merece estar entre los 4 mejores del concurso. Veremos cómo ha ido la votación del público esta noche, a ver si sigue en carrera y forma parte de los "Top Ten".

Whaaaat??? They voted off a sistah??!!!!! RACISTSSS!!!!!!

I think you're partly right. People vote for what they can relate to or what they're used to seeing. I don't think there has been an Asian singing sensation (yet!) that people can identify with.

And don't forget, the GTA, Montreal and Vancouver are the biggest mixed race communities in Canada. There are a lot of other cities that get to vote that aren't so 'accepting' of 'minority' celebrities.

btw, isn't Melissa O'Neill half asian?

Just checked CTV. Eva will be there on Monday night, not on Tuesday night. Sorry.

Ok havent seen Canadian Idol I guess she can somewhat sing....she's cute,  but can she move?

she's hot!!

peru peru

She has the looks too.....hopefully she'll make it far.....
