www.roadrun.com/blabbermouth.net/news.aspx?mode=Article&newsitemID=55605Ousted "Rock Star: Supernova" finalist Jenny Galt has told Tara Merrin of the Edmonton Sun that the "Rock Star" contestants are giving a big thumbs-down to SUPERNOVA's debut single. "A lot of people in the group are skeptical about what kind of music they're playing," says the 29-year-old Montreal-born pop-rocker now based in Vancouver. "(SUPERNOVA) say they want to do something fresh and new, but then the first track we got to hear, a lot of people were just like, 'Ew. I'm not sure if I like this.' "It sounded just like that same old, boys rock 'n' roll kind of glam thing they said they weren't going to be doing. It was a bit surprising." Galt, eliminated from the CBS-TV reality series last week, says the finalists are also questioning SUPERNOVA's commitment to its own future. She says many contestants feel its members — Tommy Lee (MÖTLEY CRÜE's drummer), Jason Newsted (former METALLICA bassist) and Gilby Clarke (former GUNS N' ROSES guitarist) — are not exactly hellbent on making the new band a success. "Because Tommy Lee's got MÖTLEY CRÜE and Jason Newsted's very passionate about (Canadian metal band) VOIVOD, there are a lot of questions as to whether this band is going to really take off. That's up in the air," she says. "And then, how much commitment do the actual members of SUPERNOVA have? "There was a lot of chit-chat in the mansion about that." Read more at www.edmontonsun.com.

That article just makes it sound like the boys of Supernova want the band to fail? Who in the hell would would intentionally shoot for that?

She sounds like she's pretty bitter about being voted off.

Yeah, but what else would you expect I guess... you don't find too many modest reality TV contestants.
