I saw today that one of the contstants in the Danish X-factor is a JW, and she is quite good! A tabloid had a newspaper where she described her faith, she sounded quite nice and said she had never been teased by her faith. The whole article can be found here (foreign language warning!)

She sang Amy Winehouse two shows ago and wore a red dress (the horror!). Wonder if we will hear a Kingdom Melody soon? :-)
Here is a link of a video where she sing winehouse:
How bout that, she ain't half bad!
Wow!! She's good.
Mor & Far are in the audience looking very happy with their daughter.
A Witness is a congragation near us entered X-Factor in the UK. He didn't make it through the first round but was interviewed before he went in. His interview segmant ended up being broadcast on the actual show. Unfortunately for him, he was asked something along the lines of... "So why do you want to win the X-Factor?". He reply was, "The money and the babes." People from his congragation saw it and passed it onto the Elders. They refused to let him get baptised that year.
Glad to see young JW's stepping out of their box.
Think About It
It is very difficult for a JW to do this type of thing without having some repercussions. A Witness in Auburn won a car on a game show and there was so much backlash they were put down from being an elder. Anna has great voice, but sadly I am sure someone will complain that being on XFactor is displaying pride and a competitive spirit and that the song was bad since she say's "I am trouble".
Removed as an elder for winning a car?????? Holy crap, that's not cultish at all...
