Australian Idol & Current Affair Age discrimination story
Tue, 31 Aug 2004, 01:43 pmDo you think performers over the age of 28year olds should apply?.
Did you see the 40's something chap on a current affair show not so long ago who's taking Grundy's (I think) to the courts for discrimination.
All I can say is GO FOR IT. There are plenty of talented performers out there who are in their late twenties, thirties and forties, plus.
When the reporter on the current affair started interviewing people on the street about their thoughts on the matter they simply replied anyone who wishes to apply should be given the chance. They even went on further to say age does not matter if your talented.
I hope this guy wins in court. Hopefully the rules will change for 2005. Stay tuned for the results, I hope there is no hush money involved.
Cheers

Damn, JB. If only you'd brought this to my attention before the deadline for Kerri's 'Storm The Stage' talent quest....I would have sued her and entered myself....I'd take on those whippersnapper highschool leavers for a crack at the $5000 and the Neighbours audition....
