BREAKING. M-Net's Idols producers secretly add two more contestants who didn't make the original cut, to get to 100 finalists.


You're reading it here first.

The producers of the 6th season of Idols on M-Net set to start on 18 July on the pay channel has secretly added two contestants who didn't originally make the cut.

I told you about the original breakdown per city of the latest season of Idols adter the nationwide audition process in which 98 Idols contestants were put through. Now, during the theatre round week, there is suddenly 100 contestants at Sun City where the next round of the hit reality show is being recorded, which begs the question: where did the additional two ''new'' Idols contestants come from?

I have asked yesterday, but M-Net haven't yet responded to my enquiry regarding the two new ''phantom'' Idols contestants.

UPDATE Tuesday 1 June 14:45: M-Net just told me there's definitely just 98 Idols contestants in the theatre round this year and that the ''Top 100'' inserted in an email is an honest mistake.
