Elton, Kylie out of The One And Only
Sunday, February 3 2008 |
Kylie Minogue impersonator Victoria Jones and Elton John tribute act Ed Hintze have been voted off The One and Only in a double elimination.
Jones - who was in the bottom two on last week's show - was automatically eliminated after receiving the least amount of votes from the public. Hintze, meanwhile, had to perform again, along with Cher impersonator Joanna Berns who was also in the bottom three. However, he narrowly lost the final vote four to two, with his fellow performers opting to save Berns instead.
Earlier in the evening, Jones had been criticised by mentors David and Carrie Grant for her rendition of "Better The Devil You Know". "You had a great routine and dancers, but the performance wasn't great," David said, while Carrie complained the Kylie soundalike was "out of tune".
Hintze, meanwhile, received a mixed response of his version of the Elton hit "I'm Still Standing". David said he had given his "best performance by some way although Carrie was less keen. "That vocal will not make it in Vegas," she told him.
Seven performers progress to the semi-final, in which another two will be eliminated from the competition.
