00:09:25Wow!
00:09:31I know Marcia's supposed to be speaking first.
00:09:35I know Marcia's supposed to be, but that was a great start to the show.
00:09:42And doing a Madonna song, everyone knows that.
00:09:46So I was like, oh, everyone's going to compare.
00:09:48And you smashed it, babe.
00:09:50You smashed it.
00:09:53Thank you so much.
00:09:54Now, what about when she just flicked the hand
00:09:57because she had that note coming?
00:09:59It's like we've just been to the Kesha show
00:10:02and now we're just dissecting it.
00:10:03It was amazing.
00:10:03It truly was top level.
00:10:05I loved it.
00:10:06Kesha, you know, me, myself, Bing, and Amy,
00:10:11we love strong women.
00:10:13And that's how you present.
00:10:14You know, obviously you do gigs.
00:10:17It's obviously you know what movements to make.
00:10:20That's what it's all about.
00:10:21And what a great way to start the show.
00:10:23Well done, honey.
00:10:23Well done.
00:10:24Thank you so much.
00:10:30Kesha, like, just no notes, really.
00:10:35Carry on as you were.
00:10:36That was fantastic.
00:10:38Yay!
00:10:43Kesha, you've cast a spell over the judges.
00:10:46I've never in my life seen Carl move that quickly.
00:10:50I was a bit nervous.
00:10:51That was awesome.
00:10:52I was a bit nervous because, like,
00:10:53usually when you go to people's barbecues,
00:10:55who else, the big boys here,
00:10:56don't like the white plastic chairs?
00:10:59You know, on this desk, I was like,
00:11:01it shows this isn't teaming.
00:11:02I'll give it a go.
00:11:03This is real stuff.
00:11:04This is real, this is real wood.
00:11:05It's solid.
00:11:06It's solid.
00:11:06It's solid.
00:11:08It must have been freedom.
00:11:09I loved it.
00:11:10Kesha, that was an incredible performance.
00:11:13I mean, it's a dumb question,
00:11:15but how do you think that went?
00:11:16Oh, I mean, I felt great.
00:11:20Like, it's just the crowd,
00:11:22my beautiful, always my beautiful friends and family.
00:11:29Like, yeah, I'm obsessed with them
00:11:31and my, like, everyone who's competing here
00:11:35is so amazing.
00:11:36So when you're surrounded by people
00:11:37that just support you, it's, you know,
00:11:40You're going to be better finishing at the clap.
00:11:42Oh, my gosh.
00:11:43Yeah.
00:11:44I saw you backstage and you just said,
00:11:46I just want to get out there
00:11:47and I just want to get this done and over with.
00:11:49And my God, you just knocked it out of the park.
00:11:52Australia is voting tonight.

00:12:03Oh, hey, music is my life.
00:12:06It's my passion.

00:12:07And if I can do that and have a job that I love
00:12:11and share that with amazing people like you guys
00:12:13and the crowd, that's just, like,
00:12:16everything you could ask for as a musician.
00:12:18So, yeah.

00:14:01from Pretty Woman.
00:14:02Yes.
00:14:03By Roy Orbison.

00:14:07Pretty Woman.
00:14:10Walking on by?
00:14:11Yeah.
00:14:12This...
00:14:12Oh, this is so embarrassing.
00:14:14I'm just thinking...
00:14:17Not that anyone should know this one.
00:14:18Thinking about my crush.
00:14:20I'm going to start getting red jeepers.
00:14:23Oh, that's so embarrassing.
00:14:26Pretty Woman.
00:14:27Pretty Woman.
00:14:29I don't believe you.
00:14:31You're not the truth.
00:14:34Yeah, so it's an extra two beats there.
00:14:36Okay.
00:14:37I'm struggling a bit with the timing of this song.
00:14:40It's very tricky.
00:14:44Grit.
00:14:45Oh.
00:14:47Just remembering that timing stuff, okay?
00:14:50Yeah.
00:14:52There's just a lot going on in my head.
00:14:53It is so critical for your timing to be exactly on point.
00:14:58If I don't get it right this week, I'll be going home.
00:15:09Pretty Woman.
00:15:17Pretty Woman.
00:15:18Walking down the street.
00:15:19Pretty Woman.
00:15:20The kind I like to meet.
00:15:23Pretty Woman.
00:15:24I don't believe you.
00:15:27You're not the truth.
00:15:28No one can look as good as you.
00:15:38Pretty Woman.
00:15:39Stop a while.
00:15:42Pretty Woman.
00:15:44Talk a while.
00:15:45Pretty Woman.
00:15:47Give your smile to me.
00:15:52Pretty Woman.
00:15:54Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:15:56Pretty Woman.
00:15:58Look my way.
00:16:00Pretty Woman.
00:16:01Say you'll stay with me.
00:16:06Cause I need you.
00:16:08Be mine tonight.
00:16:16Pretty Woman.
00:16:18Don't walk on by, Pretty Woman.
00:16:22Don't make me cry, Pretty Woman.
00:16:26Don't walk away.
00:16:31It's not the way it must be.
00:16:35Oh, hey.
00:16:37But wait.
00:16:38What do I see?
00:16:43Is she walking back to me?
00:16:49Is she walking back to me?
00:16:51Yeah, she's walking back to me.
00:16:55Oh, pretty woman.
00:17:05I...
00:17:09Oh, hey.
00:17:11Oh, hey.
00:17:14Oh, hey.
00:17:20Joia.
00:17:20That's Johnny.
00:17:22Bro, you've done it again.
00:17:24You've made another grandma song
00:17:27an absolute classic for the young, the middle, the old.
00:17:31The good thing about you is that everyone knows that song,
00:17:34and I mean from our Nana's age.
00:17:36Nana was getting frisky with Grandpa during that.
00:17:40And it was like, whoa, pretty warm.
00:17:43This will blow you away,
00:17:45but they were doing things that you'll be surprised about.
00:17:49When you get older, you'll know.
00:17:52That is exactly what you need to do.
00:17:55You're a joy to watch.
00:17:56You bring every old song.
00:17:57You make it modern.
00:17:58You make it youthful.
00:17:59You make it powerful.
00:18:00You're a real contender to win this contest, young man.
00:18:03There you go.
00:18:13Johnny, you are fearless.
00:18:15You are funky, and you are so on time
00:18:18because what you're doing is introducing older music
00:18:21to a younger crowd, and what you're doing with it is so cool.
00:18:27And look, you're entertaining, and that's what it's all about.
00:18:32You're welcome.
00:18:37I agree with these guys, Johnny.
00:18:39You're like, I think you're a genius.
00:18:41I think what you have created here is just so smart and fun,
00:18:47and I just, like, wanted to go clubbing,
00:18:48and I haven't been clubbing in a long time,
00:18:51but that music is just so...
00:18:54The arrangement and the energy you put into your show is just...
00:18:59It's addictive, man.
00:19:00You're always so good.
00:19:02I always, like, see your name, and I'm like,
00:19:03Yes, Johnny's up.
00:19:05Thank you so much.
00:19:09Johnny!
00:19:11Can I just say, the pitch of the screams in here
00:19:15when you perform are next level.
00:19:18It's crazy.
00:19:19That was a huge performance.
00:19:20How do you think that went?
00:19:22It's just...
00:19:23I think it went well,
00:19:24but I'm just so happy I can be here.
00:19:27I'm treading every performance
00:19:28just like another stepping stone,
00:19:30so, yeah, I'm just...
00:19:32It's just so good.
00:19:33It was amazing.
00:19:34What did you guys think?
00:19:40Are you used to that?
00:19:42Wow.
00:19:43Usually it's the old ladies screaming.
00:19:45It's the old ladies that are usually doing it.
00:19:46They can't scream that loud.
00:19:47Now, you mentioned in the video
00:19:49that you were singing that for a crush.
00:19:52Do you want to, um...
00:19:54I don't know, maybe spill.
00:19:55Who's the pretty woman you've got on your mind, Johnny?
00:19:58What if it's to you?
00:20:00It's not me.
00:20:01I can't say on national television.
00:20:02What if they're watching?
00:20:03Well, say, just say hello.
00:20:04Give a little wink and a little...
00:20:05Hello?
00:20:07You've got to do it a bit more cool.
00:20:09Be cool.
00:20:10Everyone just chill.
00:20:10Be cool.
00:20:11Say hello.
00:20:12Be cool.
00:20:12Be cool.
00:20:13Be cool.
00:20:37Don't tell me Samantha Jade's the crush, is it?
00:20:40It could be.
00:20:41She might be watching.
00:20:42Could be.
00:20:42Because I know her husband, so it's very hard.
00:20:45Well, Pretty Woman the Musical is touring Perth, Adelaide and Melbourne this year.
00:20:49Make sure you check it out.
00:20:50It is amazing.
00:20:52All right, Australia, you know what to do.
00:20:53If you want to see John through to the top ten,
00:20:56the only way to get him there is to vote.
00:20:58Vote.
00:20:59Vote.
00:21:00Give it up for John.
00:21:06All right, still to make their top 12 debut is Wanwoo, Trey and Melbourne model Sophie.
00:21:13But up next, our 18-year-old brizzy boy Harlan,
00:21:16who had some extra help getting ready for this week's performance.
00:21:19He met with an A-lister who hit the stage at today's Oscars.
00:21:24Just wait until you see who it is.
00:21:37Welcome back to Idol.
00:21:39Look, it's not movie week without your movie snacks.

00:21:47And speaking of chocolate, this week Harlan is taking on a song
00:21:50from the iconic movie Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
00:21:53And he had the opportunity to link up with the award-winning A-lister Josh Groban
00:21:58to help him prepare for tonight's performance.
00:22:07So this week, it's top 12 week.
00:22:09It's movie week.
00:22:10I am singing Pure Imagination from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.
00:22:15Today, I get the absolute privilege and honour to meet the Josh Groban.
00:22:20He's sold 35 million albums.
00:22:22He's a Grammy-nominated artist.
00:22:24And Josh has actually covered this song.
00:22:26And I really just want to know how he fine-tuned and tweaked his version of it.
00:22:30Hey.
00:22:30Hi, how are you?
00:22:31Harlan, Josh.
00:22:32Nice to meet you.

00:22:43I've chosen to sing Pure Imagination, which you've done a wonderful cover of.
00:22:46Thank you very much.
00:22:47To me, the song is just pure nostalgia.
00:22:49It takes you back to that place.
00:22:50I really want to take a lot of inspiration from your amazing cover.
00:22:54So with this song, I like to start it really simple.
00:22:58You can grab people's attention with bigness immediately.
00:23:02But then that overstays its welcome.
00:23:04Yeah.
00:23:04And people start to get like, okay, my hair's been blown back for a while now.
00:23:08Do you want to just sing just a tiny bit for me?
00:23:09Of course.
00:23:10Come with me and you'll be in a world of pure imagination.
00:23:22What are you thinking about when you sing this song?
00:23:25That first initial feeling of watching that movie.
00:23:28Yeah.
00:23:29Like, can you see the doors of this massive factory and open?
00:23:32And it's just like that child-like wonder.
00:23:35And it's just like awe.
00:23:36It's so infeck.
00:23:36Yeah.
00:23:37That joy.
00:23:37If you can tap in to that place, then you're golden.
00:23:41It's always great to kind of dare to let them lean in.
00:23:43Like, let them come to you.
00:23:45And an audience just wants to feel this.
00:23:47That's really all they want.
00:23:49Meeting Josh was an incredible experience.
00:23:52I have a lot of advice now that I can apply to my own performance.
00:23:56I really hope I can tap in to the feeling of nostalgia.
00:23:59You can get all the notes right, but the notes don't matter if you don't have the feeling.
00:24:12Come with me and you'll be in a world of pure imagination.
00:24:22Take a look and you'll see into your imagination.
00:24:35We'll begin with a spin.
00:24:40Traveling in a world of my creation.
00:24:45What we'll see will defy explanation.
00:24:57If you want to view paradise, simply look around and view it.
00:25:06Anything you want to do and want to change the world, there's nothing to it.
00:25:21There is no life I know to compare with your imagination.
00:25:33Living in a world of my creation.
00:25:36Living there, you'll be free if you truly wish to be.
00:25:47I wish you'd be free.
00:25:56I wish you'd be here.
00:26:03Come with me.
00:26:30Well, Harlan, I have no face because you just melted it off.
00:26:36Um, you are just, I think we're having one of these moments where we're seeing someone
00:26:46with an extreme talent, like, that was just incredible.
00:26:53I don't know how you, how you compose yourself, you had like, you could have hit, heard a pin
00:26:58drop then, like you had everyone in the palm of your hand, it's not like you've been doing
00:27:02this your whole life.
00:27:03This is like the early stages of your career, that, I mean, well done, I don't know what
00:27:09else to say.
00:28:00You're welcome.
00:28:01You're welcome.
00:28:06Harlan, great voice.
00:28:09You're a wonderful performer.
00:28:11Every time we see you, we're always gobsmacked.
00:28:14Um, and I never watched that dumb, uh, movie, nor do I like, nor do I like that dumb song
00:28:20at all, but you owned, I've never even heard that song, just so you know, never, but you
00:28:26did a great job.
00:28:27I, I didn't matter that I'd never heard it, I thought you did a remarkable job.
00:28:31And I think you owned the night so far.
00:28:33You're the best so far.
00:28:35Thank you guys.
00:28:45My goodness.
00:28:46You know what my favourite thing is, is when Marsha is watching someone and she thinks,
00:28:50they're so amazing, she almost looks like she's angry with you.
00:28:54I can never tell, I'm so scared.
00:28:56She looked furious at you during that.
00:28:58That was, that was insane.
00:29:00How did it feel?
00:29:01Um, a couple of sound checks.
00:29:03I'm like, I get to one point, I'm like, oh my God, I'm nearly fainting because it's
00:29:06like a lot physically.
00:29:08Yeah.
00:29:08But yeah, it felt good.
00:29:09I'm, I'm so grateful to be here and I'm so grateful to be here so young.
00:29:13It's an amazing opportunity.
00:29:14Oh my God.
00:29:15It's amazing.
00:29:17We're so lucky to have you.
00:29:18My goodness.
00:29:19And you got the chance to meet the Josh Groban who literally flew home hours after your
00:29:25catch up and then hit the Oscars stage.
00:29:26What was that like meeting him?
00:29:29Um, I didn't really know what to expect someone at his level.
00:29:33Like he's saying with Celine Dion, Kelly Clarkson, like nearly everyone.
00:29:37But he was probably one of the kindest men I've ever met in my entire life.
00:29:41He was such a beautiful, beautiful man.
00:29:44Um, and the biggest like note I got from him was to just lead with kindness and be kind
00:29:50and tune everything else out.
00:29:52Really, really, really beautiful.
00:29:54Amazing.
00:29:55Well, Josh's new album Cinematic is out on May 8th.
00:29:58His voice is incredible.
00:30:00Go and check it out.
00:30:00And if you want to see Harlan sing again, you have to vote Australia.
00:30:05Text Harlan to get him into the top of ten.
00:30:09Put your hands together for Harlan!
00:30:12Thank you, Josh.
00:30:17After the break, we have got our soul singing Waitress Wanwoo taking on a smash hit from
00:30:22a family favourite classic.
00:30:24It is a good one.
00:30:26And then later tonight, just one idol will get the judge saved, which will secure them
00:30:31a spot in the top ten.
00:30:33That major plot twist is coming up.
00:30:45Welcome back to Australian Idol.
00:30:48It's top 12 week.
00:30:49And to celebrate the launch of the live shows, our idols have recorded and released their
00:30:53very own single.
00:30:55Check it out.
00:30:56Not long.
00:30:59Not long.
00:31:01Not long.
00:31:02Not long.
00:31:02Not everyone you meet.
00:31:03They're jamming in the streets.
00:31:05All night long.
00:31:07Yes, you can get All Night Long out on iTunes right now.
00:31:11Search for Australian Idol or check out the QR code on screen.
00:31:15You will see them perform it right here on tomorrow night's live results show.
00:31:20Well, it's now time for our next performer.
00:31:23She's our soul singer from Melbourne taking on a song from the Shrek movies.
00:31:28This is Wanwoo.
00:31:39Hi, Mama.
00:31:41Hello, beautiful baby.
00:31:44Mama, I was calling you because for Movie Week, the song I'm doing is from Shrek.
00:31:50The Green Man, yeah?
00:31:51Yes, the Green Man.
00:31:53I love everything about Shrek.
00:31:55Like, I wrote an essay about Shrek, so I sound like a mecha nerd.
00:32:00No one's reading it.
00:32:04Yeah, we're first getting to Australia, yeah.
00:32:07So I'm singing, holding out for a hero.
00:32:09And I was calling you to let you know that you're my hero.
00:32:13And the song is for you.
00:32:16Oh, Mom, don't cry.
00:32:17Oh, Mom.
00:32:21My connection to the song is, like, not only is it about Shrek and, like, him being a hero for
00:32:26Fiona.
00:32:27For me, my mom is my hero.
00:32:31My dad passed away when I was eight, so my mom was literally my mom and dad.
00:32:37Like, she's my idol.
00:32:39I am where I am because of my mom.
00:32:42Oh, my kid, let me cry.
00:32:43I got makeup on.
00:32:46I need a hero.
00:32:48I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night.
00:32:52I know your mom was very emotional about your top 21 performance, and she's so proud of you.
00:33:00When you were small, we proud of you.
00:33:03That's what we are here for.
00:33:06How do you think you're gonna go this week seeing her again?
00:33:11Last week, I got so emotional to see how proud she was.
00:33:14This week, I really don't want to break down in tears and, like, stop in the middle of my performance.
00:33:18It's like she'll be watching me become everything she sacrificed for me to be.
00:33:23So, it's just gonna be a full circle moment.
00:33:27Like, the stakes are high.
00:33:35Where have all the good men gone and where are all the gods?
00:33:41Where's the streetwise Hercules to fight the rising arms?
00:33:47And isn't there a white night upon the fire's deep?
00:33:54Late at night, I touch and I turn and I dream of what I need.
00:34:01I need a hero.
00:34:03I'm holding out for a hero to the end of the night.
00:34:08He's got to be strong and he's got to be fast and he's gotta be larger and alive.
00:34:14I need a hero.
00:34:16I'm holding out for a hero to the morning light.
00:34:21He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be soon and he's gotta be larger than life.
00:34:27Larger than life.
00:34:28I'm holding out for a hero to the night.
00:34:30Uh, yeah.
00:34:31You ready?
00:34:33Hold on.
00:34:34Yeah.
00:34:34Hold it now, yeah.
00:34:35Hold it now, yeah.
00:34:36Hero is the end of the night night.
00:34:38Strong fast, he can lodge in the lifeline.
00:34:39If I call, do you think he'll buy back?
00:34:41See the mountains and the heavens above?
00:34:42I see the lightning, thunder and the flood.
00:34:44I can feel his approach like a fire in my blood.
00:34:47Like a fire in my blood.
00:34:49Like a fire in my blood.
00:34:50Like a fire in my blood.
00:34:51Like a fire in my blood.
00:34:51In my blood.
00:34:54I need a hero.
00:34:57I'm holding out for a hero.
00:34:58To the end of the night.
00:35:01He's gotta be strong.
00:35:03He's gotta be fast and he's gotta be fresh from life.
00:35:07I need a hero.
00:35:09I'm holding out for a hero to the morning light.
00:35:13He's gotta be sure and he's gotta be soon and he's gotta be larger than life.
00:35:20I need a hero.
00:35:36Let's go!

00:42:19before so it's gonna be new slightly risky doing an R&B version yeah of this
00:42:26song it's a challenge because it's always a risk to switch up such a
00:42:31classic song yeah especially when it's a Disney ballad pop song you just don't
00:42:37want to take it too far away from how people remember it remember it and also
00:42:41miss us and also the fact yeah hopefully Silas loves it I want to make
00:42:46my daughter's proud of this performance because I love it and that's
00:42:49ultimately why I'm doing it is for them yeah I'm definitely more worried about
00:42:54this little girl's judgment and the three judges on the day to be honest
00:42:59because I know she'll be brutal oh you want me to sing it now and you judge now
00:43:05nervous that's why I'm a little bit scared for this one yeah it's um it'll be
00:43:11interesting to see how she feels about it is that yeah thumbs up yes

00:45:34Oh, Trey
00:45:36Look, I mean
00:45:37The only way to win this thing
00:45:40Is to get the country to vote for you
00:45:43And the only way the country votes for you
00:45:45Is if they believe in you
00:45:48And if you're a likeable person
00:45:50You are so believable
00:45:51You're so likeable
00:45:53You're such a good guy
00:45:54But you are also a genius
00:45:56That was so good

00:46:02Thank you so much
00:46:03Thank you
00:46:05So good man
00:46:07It would be almost impossible
00:46:09For most mums and dads
00:46:12Godparents, grandparents
00:46:14Not to know that song honey
00:46:15Because when it was all happening
00:46:18I heard it so many times I could kill somebody
00:46:20You know what I mean
00:46:22But your rendition of that
00:46:24That was just so beautiful Trey
00:46:26You know and
00:46:27Yeah, there's nothing much I can say
00:46:29Except I think that was a very, very clever choice on your part
00:46:32Thank you so much Marshall
00:46:33I appreciate it
00:46:38Tell me you've heard this song
00:46:40Trey, of course
00:46:41I don't, that's another cartoon rubbish movie that I haven't watched
00:46:46Of course
00:46:47Being a grown man
00:46:48Obviously the song's rubbish as well
00:46:50But your version of it
00:46:52You made it all chocolate and beautiful and ooh
00:46:56With a nougar-y, caramel-y, ooh
00:47:00I was eating that up
00:47:02And that, mate
00:47:04You're up there with the greatest
00:47:05Like you make every song you sing
00:47:07Like the forbidden, ooh
00:47:10Ooh, I've gone home without me shoes again
00:47:12You know the time
00:47:13You're that bloke
00:47:14That was
00:47:16You're hilarious
00:47:16Very clever as Amy said
00:47:18Thank you
00:47:18All the kids love that
00:47:19Every stupid little girl with the head
00:47:21They all love it
00:47:23The guy can't be bad
00:47:24Thank you Carl
00:47:24I need you to stop
00:47:25Thank you
00:47:26Everything was bad
00:47:27That was sick

00:47:28Everything
00:47:29Thank you
00:47:30Everything
00:47:31Hi Ricky
00:47:32The guy that's seen nothing has all the opinions on the things he's never seen
00:47:36I love it
00:47:37I've never seen any of these rubbish things and I loved every song so far
00:47:41I love it
00:47:41Trey, that was a girl dad power move if I ever saw one
00:47:46Absolutely
00:47:47My goodness
00:47:50What a cool spin on that song
00:47:52How do you think it went?
00:47:53It was fun
00:47:54It was really fun to put a twist on this song
00:47:56Yeah, I was a little nervous because it is such a big song
00:47:59You know it's known in probably the majority of every household
00:48:02Every kid loves that song
00:48:04So yeah
00:48:04It was scary but I felt good with the performance
00:48:07And I'm happy the judges felt the same way
00:48:09Yeah
00:48:10Yeah we did
00:48:11Thank you
00:48:12I think all the mums and dads that would have been hearing that song
00:48:15Would be so excited to hear it done in a different way
00:48:18Now Trey, your beautiful wife Victoria is here tonight
00:48:21And your gorgeous daughters have had to go to bed
00:48:23It's past their bedtime
00:48:24Yeah
00:48:25Yeah
00:48:25But I need to ask you
00:48:27Do you think your biggest critic Silas
00:48:30Oh yeah
00:48:31Would have loved that performance
00:48:31Or was it
00:48:33Thumbs up now?
00:48:34She would have loved it but her favourite is John
00:48:35So uh
00:48:36Oh
00:48:38She doesn't care about my performances
00:48:40She just wants to see John at the moment
00:48:42So she saw John and then she went home
00:48:44She looked really comfy
00:48:45I love that
00:48:46You can't
00:48:47The kids they're so honest
00:48:48What do you do?
00:48:49She looked really comfy in this chair
00:48:51I'm a bit worried
00:48:51She really did
00:48:52Watch out
00:48:53Watch out
00:48:54She'll be there next year
00:48:55She's coming for your job
00:48:56Trey it's up to the public now to keep you in the competition

00:49:02Well I've been working on my craft for a very long time now
00:49:05Um
00:49:06And you know the main reason I just want Australia to you know witness growth

00:49:46Up next our model from Melbourne Sophie will bring us glamour, glitter and a whole lot of sparkle
00:49:53When she hits the Idol runway with an iconic hit from a Hollywood legend
00:49:58Plus our judges decide who they'll save from the public vote
00:50:02How's that for a cliffhanger?
00:50:04Australian Idol will be back in just a moment
00:50:16Welcome back to movie week on Idol
00:50:18The final singer of the night is our model Sophie
00:50:21And I'm here with her mum Kim who's cheering her on tonight
00:50:25Now Kim, when did you realise little Sophie was going to be a big star?
00:50:29From a very young age
00:50:31She's always been a performer
00:50:33She's grown up in a very busy house
00:50:36And she's kept us entertained for years
00:50:39And now I heard that you were the one that convinced her to audition for Idol
00:50:43You must be glad you did that
00:50:44Oh absolutely
00:50:45Yeah?
00:50:46Yes, absolutely
00:50:48Look at her
00:50:48She's a star
00:50:49She's sparkling tonight
00:50:51Well we are so glad that you did that
00:50:52Alright well let's see how Sophie, our model from Melbourne, prepared for her performance this week
00:50:59There's something in the world, your mum, yeah
00:51:05Hi
00:51:09I'm great, how are you feeling?
00:51:11I'm good
00:51:11And it's movie week
00:51:14Yup
00:51:14Tell me what song you're doing
00:51:15I'm doing Diamonds Are Girls Best Friends
00:51:17One of my favourite songs in the movie
00:51:19Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
00:51:21Yes
00:51:21Iconic
00:51:22Just iconic
00:51:24Really
00:51:24Top 21, Kyle was particularly impressed
00:51:28That was the best stage work I've pretty much ever seen on this show
00:51:32If you're wondering what do they mean by the whole package, that's what I mean
00:51:36The whole package
00:51:37Kyle's saying that I had the best stage work
00:51:39That was such a green light to just let's even do it even more
00:51:44Thank you so much
00:51:45You made it
00:51:46I made it
00:51:47Just to elevate
00:51:49Yeah
00:51:49Your performance
00:51:50How do you feel about two male dancers?
00:51:54Really?
00:51:55Yes
00:51:55Actually?
00:51:56Actually
00:51:57Oh my god, that is like my dream
00:51:59Yeah
00:51:59That's literally my dream
00:52:00We're gonna have to really step up
00:52:02Yup
00:52:03Are you ready for that?
00:52:04Yes
00:52:04There is gonna be a bit more on my plate for this performance
00:52:09You've just gone here
00:52:10Full
00:52:10Yup
00:52:13Tying everything in and making it still sound amazing
00:52:18Because at the end of the day this is a singing show
00:52:20Yeah
00:52:20Then from here you're gonna run left, right, left
00:52:23Oh left, right, left
00:52:24Left, right
00:52:24So much dancing can really get in the way of your vocal work
00:52:27And the breath control and your delivery
00:52:30It is a risk to add all your movement
00:52:33But taking risks lead to better results
00:52:37Yeah
00:52:37So let's just go from the high note just before the dance break
00:52:40Yeah
00:52:41So we got
00:52:42Diamond
00:52:44Yeah, I think pressure is definitely on for this performance
00:52:48I've got a lot to prove to Australia and myself
00:52:52If I could complete that full package and make the top ten
00:52:57It would just be truly a dream come true
00:53:00I think it's fun
00:53:15Diamonds
00:53:16Are all
00:53:18Girls' best friends
00:53:24I care
00:53:26The hands may be quite continental
00:53:29But diamonds are a girl's best friend
00:53:32The gifts may be grand
00:53:35But I won't pay the rental on your humble flat
00:53:39Or help you at the auto max's men
00:53:42Grow cold
00:53:43And girls grow old
00:53:45And we all lose our charms in the end
00:53:49A square cut or pear shapes
00:53:52These rocks don't lose their shape
00:53:54Diamonds are a girl's best friend
00:54:00Diamonds are a girl's best friend
00:54:15Diamonds are a girl's best friend
00:54:19Tell me all about it
00:54:20Tell me all about it
00:54:21Tell me all about it
00:54:22Tell me all about it
00:54:22As time rolls on
00:54:25And youth is gone
00:54:26And you can't straighten up
00:54:29When you bend
00:54:30When you bend
00:54:30When you bend
00:54:31But step back or stiff knees
00:54:33You'll stare straight at Disney's diamonds
00:54:37Are a girl's best friend
00:54:51Best friend
00:55:12Sophie, little Sophie
00:55:14Look at you sparkling away up there
00:55:16Once again, great to see you
00:55:19You always do a fabulous job
00:55:21You are a born entertainer
00:55:22You look the part
00:55:23The outfit is spot on
00:55:25I like the dancing
00:55:26I like the macho-y or whatever
00:55:29The men vibe there
00:55:30That was great
00:55:32All of the stuff on the screens
00:55:35Great song
00:55:36And you are a little character
00:55:39The thing I like about you
00:55:40Is that you sort of morph
00:55:42You forget that it's you
00:55:44You actually just turn into an actress
00:55:47A singer, an entertainer
00:55:49You're doing it all
00:55:50And I just really want you to stay in the contest
00:55:53Because you're so good
00:55:55And you just are very believable
00:55:56Every time I see you
00:55:57I just fall into the performance
00:55:59Whatever you're doing
00:56:00I forget that I'm judging
00:56:02I'm just like
00:56:03Oh, diamonds
00:56:04All right, girl
00:56:05And let me tell you
00:56:06I spent a lot of money on diamonds
00:56:08A lot
00:56:09And if the girl loves them
00:56:11You love them
00:56:12Frost me up
00:56:14Nice work, hon
00:56:15Thanks, girl
00:56:16Oh, yes, we love those diamonds
00:56:18Girlfriend, I want those boots, okay?
00:56:20Those are some of the best looking
00:56:21You look fantastic
00:56:22Oh, they're boots?
00:56:23I thought they were pants
00:56:24Yeah, no, they're boots
00:56:25Oh, they were
00:56:26Not a one big thing, isn't it?
00:56:27Yes, girl, you look fantastic
00:56:28And your choice in a song as old as that
00:56:33And bringing it into the 21st century
00:56:35How old is that?
00:56:36Oh, that's
00:56:37That's a lot older than you
00:56:38Yeah
00:56:38A lot
00:56:39And that's old
00:56:40Okay
00:56:42So
00:56:42That was
00:56:43Young
00:56:43Oh, thank you
00:56:44But, you know, that was Marilyn Monroe
00:56:46You know, she made that song quite famous
00:56:49Yeah
00:56:49You look great
00:56:50And I just like your show business prowess
00:56:53You know what to do, you know
00:56:55And I mean, just to stand there
00:56:57And just sing and do nothing
00:56:58Uh-uh
00:56:58But to actually perform
00:57:00Way to go
00:57:01Well done, Sophie
00:57:01Thank you so much, Marshall
00:57:02That means a lot
00:57:04Thank you
00:57:04Thank you all
00:57:07I know that was like the Marilyn Monroe
00:57:10But one of my favourite movies of all time
00:57:12Is Moulin Rouge
00:57:12And you were just giving me Satine then
00:57:15And Burlesque
00:57:16Yeah, it was
00:57:16That was just so slick, Sophie
00:57:19Like you
00:57:19Thank you so much
00:57:20I can see
00:57:21Like you're like one of these people
00:57:22That you really saw with success
00:57:26Like once you start hitting your stride
00:57:28Like we're really seeing you in action now
00:57:30And that is not easy to do
00:57:33That was like such an amazing performance
00:57:36That you did then
00:57:37So effortlessly
00:57:38With dancers and singing
00:57:41And just being like Kyle said
00:57:43This character
00:57:44It's like that's what Australia wants
00:57:47They don't want anyone boring
00:57:48They want to see someone who they're like
00:57:50Wow, she's interesting
00:57:52And you were so interesting
00:57:54Thank you
00:57:55So well done
00:57:56That was great
00:57:57Thank you all
00:57:57Thank you all
00:57:58Thank you so much
00:57:59Seriously
00:57:59And my dancers
00:58:01Wow
00:58:02Sophie
00:58:03Looking like a million bucks up here
00:58:06Serving the timeless glamour
00:58:09Of Miss Marilyn Monroe
00:58:11I loved that
00:58:11And that arrangement
00:58:13Was insane
00:58:14So good
00:58:15Did you enjoy that?
00:58:15I had a fabulous
00:58:16Amazing time
00:58:17Of course
00:58:18How could I not?
00:58:19Oh my gosh
00:58:20Look at this opportunity
00:58:21It's just insane
00:58:22I'm so grateful
00:58:23You absolutely took over the stage
00:58:26You brought everything to that performance
00:58:28Two backup dancers
00:58:30I mean
00:58:30Where did you pull them from?
00:58:32A blessing
00:58:33So cool
00:58:34How important is it for you
00:58:36To put on a show
00:58:37With all of the bells and whistles
00:58:38Is that who you want to be?
00:58:40Yeah
00:58:40I think extra is just so fun
00:58:43There's no such thing
00:58:44And I think it is
00:58:45It's just me
00:58:45I really want to entertain people
00:58:47And I think
00:58:47I have an outgoing personality
00:58:49And I've been gifted this gift
00:58:51To do this
00:58:52And that's really how I feel
00:58:54So yeah
00:58:54I want to make the most of it
00:58:55Of course
00:58:56And it's all just to connect with people
00:58:58And entertain them
00:58:58And make their life any easier
00:59:00If I can
00:59:01I love that
00:59:02I love that
00:59:04Well if you want to see
00:59:06Sophie again next week
00:59:08You have to vote for her Australia
00:59:10Text Sophie
00:59:11To the number on the screen
00:59:12To help her lock in
00:59:14A top 10 spot
00:59:16Make some noise everybody
00:59:17For Sophie
00:59:18Thank you all so much
00:59:20I love you all
00:59:20I love you all
00:59:23Okay
00:59:23Sophie is the last to sing
00:59:26So now our judges
00:59:27Have a very important decision
00:59:30To make
00:59:30That will be a total game changer
00:59:32For one of tonight's performers
00:59:34They'll decide
00:59:35Who will skip the public vote
00:59:37And be sent directly
00:59:38Into the top 10
00:59:40An advantage like that
00:59:42At this stage in the competition
00:59:43Is invaluable
00:59:45That decision is coming up
00:59:47On Australian Idol
00:59:48Don't go anywhere
00:59:59You're watching Idol
01:00:01And the judges are currently deciding
01:00:02Which of tonight's performers
01:00:04Will score the coveted judge save
01:00:07Which will lock one Idol
01:00:09Into the top 10
01:00:10Skipping the public vote
01:00:11While they mull over that massive decision
01:00:14We have got something

01:00:27Singing his Aria
01:00:29Award winning song
01:00:30Choir
01:00:38I know it's weird to say this

01:04:14tour.
01:04:14Tell us what we can all expect.
01:04:16Well, I'll be there, obviously, and my band.
01:04:20Look, it's 23 years since Idol.
01:04:23Wow.
01:04:24And what is crazy is that's older than some of those idols in the top 12.
01:04:31But I've been lucky enough to have so much support and that's what this is all about.
01:04:35And these guys are experiencing it with all their own fans now.
01:04:38So, thank you for being along for the ride.
01:04:4123 years, 10 albums.
01:04:43There will be a lot of music at the show.
01:04:45Huge.
01:04:46Now, this tour is going from coast to coast.
01:04:48There's 16 dates around the country.
01:04:50Tickets are selling fast.
01:04:51So, get yours now at guysebastian.com.
01:04:54Tonight is the first time Australia is voting.
01:04:57You know more than anyone how important it is to get behind your favourite idols, right?
01:05:00Oh, yeah.
01:05:01Yeah.
01:05:01I was in the bottom two, I think, a couple of times.
01:05:04And, yes, I know.
01:05:07But, you know, a lot of the times you get complacent.
01:05:09You think, oh, they're so good they'll get through.
01:05:11And then they get out and everyone cries.
01:05:13So, let's save the crying.
01:05:15Vote for your favourite.
01:05:16Get them through.
01:05:17Absolutely.
01:05:18Guy, it is so good to have you back at home on the idol stage.
01:05:21Give it up.
01:05:23One more time for Guy Sebastian.
01:05:29Of course.
01:05:30Up next, the judges will announce who they'll save from this week's public vote
01:05:35and send directly into the top ten.
01:05:37That moment of truth right after the break.
01:05:47You decide the winner of Australian Idol 2026.
01:05:52They'll win a life-changing $100,000.
01:05:56Hit the red carpet at the ARIA Awards and the TV Week Logie Awards.
01:06:03Boost their brand with the annex.

01:06:09Attend a songwriting camp with Sony Music Publishing.
01:06:12And score an exclusive package to record new music at Sydney's Hive Sound Studios.
01:06:22What an awesome way to kickstart a career.
01:06:27Okay.
01:06:28All night, your idols have poured their hearts onto the stage.
01:06:33Now, the moment of truth has arrived.
01:06:36The judges have made their impossible choice.
01:06:40Who will they save from the public vote and send straight into the top ten?
01:06:46Yes.
01:06:47Marsha and Kyle.
01:06:49How difficult was tonight's decision?
01:06:52Quite difficult.
01:06:53Yeah.
01:06:53Because tonight, I loved everyone.
01:06:56Buddy, you guys really stepped up.
01:06:58Please.
01:06:58You know, you gotta own that, okay?
01:07:00It's been so impressive how you've changed and how you've taken your notes and how you've
01:07:06just decided, okay, so at this point in time, this is who I am.
01:07:10There's a lot more to come, but gee, I am so impressed.
01:07:14We are very impressed with you guys.
01:07:17Okay.
01:07:17It's time to find out who will be instantly locked into the top ten.
01:07:22All right.
01:07:23Amy, who have the judges decided to send through to the top ten?
01:07:32Seriously, one of the best nights of idol ever.
01:07:36Ever.
01:07:36You guys.

01:07:38What a night.
01:07:40It was so tough.
01:07:44Really, really tough decision.
01:07:50But this person has a trajectory in this competition that tells us they're far from done.
01:08:02They have connection, emotion, star power.
01:08:11Incredible heart, most importantly, you know.
01:08:15And I think the audience can actually see your hearts.
01:08:19I don't know if you guys are aware of that, but that's what performance is when people actually
01:08:24see you show who you are.
01:08:28So the person we are saving, the person going straight through isn't the one or the two.
01:08:49It's the one woo.
