I don't.

The bottom line is, ALW would have auditioned the girls in the normal way if ability was the only criteria he was interested in. But the fact that the audition process has been turned into a reality show, where the public has a say, means the girls' personalities are also of interest and are inevitably going to be talked about.

I personally think they are all quite likeable - in fact, I dont think there was any unlikeable Dorothy in the top 12 at all.

Steph comes accross as a fighter, which is an endearing quality to most. She seems to keep battling on, and takes the knocks she's faced on the chest and carried on.

Danielle seems like a really nice girl, but I think she's just a bit shy. I think if she was a little bit more outgoing, she'd be very popular, but if your not outgoing your not. I think some people want to dislike Danielle, just because shes ALW's favourite.

I dont think there's anything unlikeable about Sophie to be honest? She comes accross as very sweet, and seems genuinely terrified a lot of the time - but not in an annoying way, more in a "aww bless her" way. I actually think Sophie seems like the nicest of all four girls left, but then thats just me.

Lauren.. I personally like Lauren, but I can sort of see why people dont. I think a bubbly personality can be just as important as talent on these shows. Lauren is clearly a lovely girl, but I dont think people like how she seems to be in control of everything. I personally find it endearing and a sign of her professionalism, but I guess thats not for everyone. At any rate, I think it will help her career in the long run, though I admit its probably not the best approach to a talent competition.

I see your point, but I personally think some of the threads go to far. First and foremost, this is supposed to be a talent competition, where viewers vote for who they want to be Dorothy.

Of course personalities are important, but I think sometimes people go to far. Lauren is demonised in some threads, and I really dont think thats right. We really dont know anything about these girls other than the hour or so their on screen on a Saturday night/

It's odd because my favourite's are normally the 'Ice Maidens', or the 'Robots', as people would say, but I think Steph is definately the most likeable, and backs it up with a lot of talent and star quality.

Yes but Sophie is lovely too

nadia from big brother and the stepford wife I cannot warm to

They all seem like nice girls and I don't no where any doubt about their personalities has come in, seeing as they appear to be very supportive of each other and have not said a bad word against one another.

Nadia from BB? Who's that? Steph? Stepford Wife? Lauren?

I'm not up with the lingo!

Sometimes lauren reminds me of Nadia from Big Brother...

Danielle is a Stepford Wife.

Christ I'd got that wrong. Don't see the correlation of Nadia and Lauren at all! I thought Steph's chin might have been remotely reminiscent!

Lauren's a difficult one because she's hugely accomplished but leaves me cold - also she appears in looks and demeanor so much older than her years - she's a great performer but not Dorothy at all - IMO.

I didn't like Danielle at all at the beginning - far too earnest when she performed, constant frowning but I was blown away with her mambo and she showed another side - I'd be well up for her winning - she's totally unmusical theatre and I like that about her!

I don't think so at all. In fact, I am happy this year cos all the girls have been sweethearts who it's easy to root for. The only one I've heard people complain about personality wise is Lauren, and I think that's unwarranted! I think she has been edited badly but doesn't come across as a bad person, but some people seem to think you can't have a group of people together without atleast one person being unlikeable. Everyone who has met Lauren said she is a nice girl and I think she is too. She may not be as instant likeable as Stephanie, Sophie etc, but I don't think she deserves to be disliked.

They all seem like nice girls but I think Sophie would make the best dorothy

I like them all!

I don't know why you would dislike any of them. But I suppose it's basically the kind of people you take a liking to.... Either quite mellow people.... Really emotional people, or quite proffesional people.... They are all likeable in their own way, to different people.

It may be harder to find fault with anything Steph has done during her time on OTR, but doesn't mean she is anymore likable than any of the others. People like Lauren, Danielle and Sophie as well obviously as they vote for them.

I'm not sure whether I want Steph in the final or not.

She reminds me of the previous 4th place contestants. Clearly the most talented person left in the competition, and destined for bigger and better things.

Steph is very talented.... But where she comes in the compition now isn't going to effect her career either way, unless it's first of course.

Believe me Danielle has DEAD EYES. There is not a spark, oh yes there was it was when poor old Jess was leaving.

you are extremely unpleasant. And I don't think Jessica would like you to be honest....

It took a bit longer, I found, to get to know the Dorothys than it did the Marias or the Nancys (I think this might have been because we started with 20 and then lost the half of them that had made most impression for me) but once I did, I liked them all, every one. There's no-one this series who annoys me like Connie and Jodie did.

However, Steph is the one I like best.
