Don't call me Idol

I have decided that Australian Idol is not for me. I now believe that the show is too mainstream and commercial for my unique talents. I believe that if I were to go on the show next year, it would be a serious compromise on my integrity as an artist and performer.

I shall, therefore, be continuing to establish myself in the underground karaoke scene, where I am allowed to be myself and where I do not have to face unfair public pressure to become somebody that I feel I am not.

Thank you.
