We all had personal meetings with INXS. It was the basis of this week's clinic. It was a chance for us to get up-front and personal with the band. They needed to ask us questions for which they needed answers to really get to understand who we are and where we've come from. I was glad they asked me about my theatre background because I knew they were concerned about my 'Rock Legitimacy'. I was able to explain to them why I had been in theatre - it was a better way of making money then waiting tables, while allowing me to work on my music. And I really enjoyed it. I have never regretted any theatre job I've had, especially WE WILL ROCK YOU. I could tell they really liked my diplomacy and good stable nature, but were concerned about my resistance to any conflict that may come my way. I told them that my acts of kindness in the mansion were not signs of weakness in character, but signs of being a team player and willingness to get the job done. The fact that I continued to challenge myself out of my comfort zone should have solidified that. The interview made me want to be part of INXS more than ever. They seem to be such a tight knit unit, it is obvious that they are truly concerned about how well we can all fit and compliment this well-oiled machine.

The songs that INXS have chosen for me this week are “Kiss From A Rose” by Seal and “Paint It Black” by The Rolling Stones. I think it is obvious that INXS wants to see a darker side of my character as these songs certainly delve into the darker psyche. “Kiss From A Rose” is an extremely challenging song vocally, but one of my all time favorites. Us final four contestants have made a pact that when we finish our songs, we have to make sure there is nothing more we could have done to make them better. I am excited to give these songs everything I have. It is going to be a magical show.
