    How did that loser Matthew Newton get a berth? No doubt dear old dad got it for him!!! Pathetic. There is very little talent on tonight, so therefore the television will be off in our home.

    Is it just be or is Carols By Candlelight where washed up Idol contestants go to die?

    Love Carols By Candlelight!

    I see from the VisIon Australia site that the offical launch will be broadcast on the Today Show on Tuesday, with Ricki-Lee, John Foreman and Carols Ambassador Anthony Callea making an appearance.

    Lisa & Karl
    John Foreman
    Doug Heywood and CBC choir
    Hi-5
    Humphrey B & Santa
    National Boys Choir of Australia
    Australian Girls Choir
    Lorin Nicholson
    Silvie Paladino
    Marina Prior

    On Nov 25, on the Vison Australia site all the above were as performers for the 2009 Carols and the day before Anthony Callea was named as Carols Ambassador, so Guy wasn’t exactly the first name on the list. ;)

    Karl and Lisa? groan. Although I guess it could be worse (Eddie, Jules, Catriona, etc…)

  7. Chris says:

    Rikki Lee, Young Divas, Jessica Mauboy, Damien Leith

    Just a guess for other token performers who appear on TV specials/sporting events. Tokenistic much?

  8. Kenny says:

    “It kicks off at 8pm”. Good. Always thought it was a bit ridiculous starting it at 9pm for all of those years.

  9. Katrina says:

    Oh great, Lisa and Karl again.

    We recorded them last year, find it so annoying that they’re starting an hour earlier. But at least we could fastforward through all their stupid patter.

    Funny how much more willing artists are to participate in goodwill events when they have an album to flog just before christmas…

  11. Leo says:

    Anthony Callea is also performing again this year!
