Slade Lottering (18) was determined to be the first contestant to audition for Idols that held its audition day today in Port Elizabeth, so he started queuing at 21:00 on Saturday night already and was the first one in the line this morning.
The sixth season of the reality show starting in July on M-Net held its Port Elizabeth audition day today in the city at the bay. Grey skies overhead couldn't dampen the spirits of the more than 530 contestants who showed up at the Boardwalk complex. ''I don't know whether the shiver inside me is from the nerves or from the cold,'' said Cindy Pierce (19).
This is the first time in a few Idols seasons that Port Elizabeth is a part of the Idols audition trail across South Africa, and this coming Saturday Bloemfontein will be included for the first time in the final pitstop on the nationwide audition process. Cape Town has already sent through 27 singers to the next theatre round for Idols, Durban 20 singers and Johannesburg 25 hopefuls.
