Australian Idol: It's The Final Countdown

The three remaining Australian Idols Anthony, Casey and Courtney, the nerves have gone beyond nail-bitingThe three contenders for impending mega stardom have now retreated to the security of the own retreats, doing whatever they can to calm the nerves. Prior to last night's crucial sing-off, which will tonight see three down to just two, each of the Australian Idols returned to the comfort of their families. Casey high tailed it to Bankstown, where she had a BBQ with family and school friends, Anthony hung with his Melbourne-based family in their hotel and, after a huge long walk around the Harbour, Courtney dined with his family and friends. The three have been busy in the studio, recording their versions of the Diane Warren song, with the winning version to be pressed the night of the final and released in stores the following day, with an album released eight days later, not to put pressure on the guys. ^auscom
