It's been less than 24 hours since the petition started and there is already over 370 signatures to get Maria a record deal! It probably won't actually get her one, but it will be a small factor that a record company willl take note of. They will look to see whether she has a big fan base, and something like that will help push her along a little bit. Her talent is the main thing that is driving her!

Some very strange names have signed, and some very strange messages left.

If I were a record exec that would certainly NOT persuade me to give anyone a contract.

Dont look too closely at some of the comments though, you'll be disappointed to see that a lot of people are just using this petition to make some really nasty comments

It was absolutely full of racist and sexist comments the last time I looked.

Why start ANOTHER thread on this? You already have one.

Stop deluding yourself - 370 names (including duplicates) is nowhere near enough to sway anyone. It's unlikely 37,000 would be, and she won't get anywhere near that number. The producers know how many phone votes she got, and that's enough to tell them whether she'll be successful or not.

I don't understand how a petition is going to help her get a record deal.

Who is this petition going to be sent to? And what do you expect them to do about it when they get it?



By the way it has received 630 votes now.

Judging by a lot of the comments, they didn't go to school as English Language is on the syllabus

It's text speak though.

The problem with text speak is that if start to write like that all the time, you'll probably start talking like that all the time...and worst of all you'll start thinking like that all the time, and as a consequence of that you'll end up teaching yourself to become stupid over time.

I can do text speak, mind you my texts usually go into pages I can't get the hang of it properly. Although sometimes I have to ask what is meant as I really can't work out what they're saying

Ha ha love that last comment

Public votes in a TV reality contest really have not much bearing on whever an act will be successfull.

And if the poster wants to start a petition, good luck to them. doesnt harm anyone else.

I don't have a problem with anyone starting a petition. My point was, we already had a thread telling us that the petition existed: we don't need another telling us how far it's got! What next?
"500 signatures on Maria petition" ??
"734 signatures on Maria petition" ????

Who cares?

If you dont care then dont add to the thread. If you think the T&c's have been broken, tell the mods instead.
