You’re Not a Star
The Irish Independent (bugmenot required) reports today that RTE’s “You’re a Star” will no longer be used to select Ireland’s Eurovision entrants, as all three entrants selected by the show failed miserably.
Sadly, they’re not canning the show altogether, as they make lots of money out of the telephone/text voting and it continues to get good ratings.
