Apparently, the rockers have a clinic every week. Last week it was fashion tips, this week it's stage presence. The Rockers and INXS sat watching a video of selected performances and people critique what they see on screen. Most of the comments made sense, but the funny one would be about Suzie's teeth being so white and prominent it's distracting. Ofcourse, it prompted Suzie to react that there's not much she can do about her teeth (unless surgery is considered, but her teeth are fine the way they are, why ruin it?).

Now, I had no problem with J.D.'s comment that had some fellow Rockers resenting him, and turned off some viewers. What happened during song selection this week was what really made me label this guy as trouble. First, he convinces Jordis to let him have "We Are the Champions". Then he discovers he can't sing the song. He attempts to rearrange it to suit his range - but not only is his idea not working, the house band is pretty much averse to changing the way the song is originally sung. Knowing he's going to screw it, JD tries to exchange songs with Jordis again. Jordis may be the youngest rocker, but she's no pushover - so JD is stuck with the Queen song.

In my opinion, JD is acting like the playground bully who pushes people around to get a popular toy, only to realize he doesn't really like playing with it.

The icing on the cake of this "JD's got it coming" episode is the end where MiG sings "We Are the Champions" during rehearsal break and jokes that while others have to learn that song, he sings it because he loves it.
