South Africa Idols Judge Leaves South Africa
5 May
So Idols is no more? Just as winner Sasha-Lee Davids enthuses about her new career, the show seems to be falling apart, haveing barely made it through this current season.
Idols Judge, portrayed as this super talent spotting mogul for Sony BMG was actually unemployed?
Beeld reports that the FORMER Idols judge Dave Thompson is unemployed and has left South Africa.
Dave Thompson, was the marketing director at Sony BMG and has now emigrated to Australia.
Helen Smit, the head of M-Net’s local production, said if there was another season of Idols, Thompson would have to be replaced.
Beeld was informed that Thompson wanted to emigrate to Australia sooner and he would initially only have appeared in the first auditions.
He then stayed until the end of the series and left for Australia the day after the last episode.
Seems to me like rats from a sinking ship. Whens Mara leaving?
