Can understand exactly what you mean Michael...time is running out !!! I somehow do not believe they will have notified anyone before official announcement made for they couldn't take the chance of the person not spilling the beans, either now, or in the future, and that would be exceptionally unfair on all of you....truly do not think that Michael so fingers still crossed for you and hope you sleep well tonight !!!! lol

Hi Silvy,

the boss decides! I think our opinion is here secondary! Michael will have his reasons for the decision. In any case, it's great that two candidates with him are stands on stage! He would have to choose only one! That alone shows that he himself did not easy decision!

Thought would share with you part of an e-mail I have received from Dream Jobbing relevant to backup singer with Michael. Believe their write-up is good as it shows that in the final selection, Part 3, not only Michael was involved but also his Team as you must remember they had to carry out background checks on the suitability of the Top 20 chosen before a winner(s) could be decided upon. Michael was much more involved, on a sole basis, on the selection of the Top 20 but in choosing the actual winner(s) it was a much more involved process.

"Congratulations to Naika Richard, a student at the Berklee College of Music in Boston, and Charlotte France, an aspiring singer from the United Kingdom, for landing their DreamJob as Michael Bolton's back-up singer on tour! Michael's management team was so impressed by the many talented applicants that it was impossible for them to narrow it down to just one winner."
