I agree. Daniel is very boyish and baby faced whereas Lee isn't, mainly due to his thin features.

I do agree, Daydream Believer is one of my all- time favourite pop songs.
As for the public being daft enough to give ALW the chance to bounce Daniel out, I still have doubts about that phone line and those engaged tones. The BBC was in the news today over its other phoneline voting and got slated for bad practice. Something very odd remains about the Daniel decision.

I've not heard anything about the sexuality of the chosen Joseph being in question! Where was that? Surely it wouldn't make any difference

If I was going to say anyone was camp, I think ALW himself gives Graham Norton a run for his money (lol).....

Any man who has creative leanings is immediately suspected of being less than straight which doesn't always follow -but whether Daniel is or isn't (and he's definitely not camp) I don't think matters. I really cannot see that ALW would be selective on that basis - surely not

Daniel is very talented - he's wonderful to listen to - and watch - and no doubt appeals to everyone on both sides so to speak! Since most of us will never be lucky enough to even have dinner with him I don't suppose it really matters - we'll just keep on dreaming and looking forward to being able to see him in as many shows as possible (and although Tellyaddict disagrees with me ... I think a bit of TV and film work too- if that's lucrative he can then pick and choose his theatre roles)

there was something VERY wrong with the phones that night

Alice,

There was a post somewhere about one of the tabloids questioning if the Joseph decision was down to easing out possible gay Josephs...with a pic of Dan holding Lewis' hand after the sing-off.

Unfortunately I cannot recall which thread or which tabloid but some of the others might know. Whether they were seriously suggesting this or not it seemed an odd thing to bring up out of nowhere and just because Dan was sweet enough to hold Lewis who was very emotional before and after the decision....while Dan remained incredibly composed and dignified.

As for their sexuality I agree I don't like intrusiveness if it makes them uncomfortable...but we're only human and can speculate, or cannot help doing it at times!! Anyway, I'd rather have their respect than their body any day...though bth might be very nice in a context of lifelong devotion!!

I didn't hear about this, although I do remember a thread a little while ago called something like "Which of the Josephs are gay?"
I sincerely hope ALW wouldn't take too much notice of this - especially with JB on his panel!

I read one of the posts on youtube by someone claiming to know him who says he is not gay and split up with a girlfriend several months before the auditions for ADWD began - he's just a very nice genuine guy (sometimes that can be mistaken). So who knows (and who cares quite frankly).

Kym

You are quite right DANIEL is DANIEL and that is what we all like, his amazing vocal (one that everyone could listen to for two hours!) his genuine warm personality and his looks! - that is all that counts!

I have heard 'You Raise Me Up' sung live by Daniel, and to say he nailed it is a massive understatement. Not many songs do this but i had shivers down my spine and a lump in my throat. When i saw JG was on and this song was to be sung i nearly hit the roof (and the cat,dog,wife,kids) that should have been sung by Daniel, they should have brought him back just to sing it.
The sooner Mr Boys brings out a CD/DVD the better.

That would be brilliant.

Where did you hear him sing You Raise Me Up??

You are absolutely right. There must have been some problem, it is obvious that Daniel was popular and one of the faves so why then was he in the sing-off that week . It has to be checked out.

He sung it in Peter Pan whilst trying to bring Tinkerbell back to life....can't type any more, filling up!!!

Heard it about 10 times and every time just as amazing as the first.

PS son was in panto, i wasn't stalking

I Fully Agree DANIEL BOYS is going to be BIG and one day we will have that CD and then DVD!

I think I saw the pics on your Myspace. It looked brilliant.

Thats the sort of thing that would fill me up too. I'd probably have been sobbing.

I'm sure we will see lots more of Daniel soon.

Oh I love Daniel. He is fab!

I hope so too, it's not very often you come across an extremely talented person who is nice as well.

So true! They are usually all so egotistic but I think Daniel is so genuine and modest, he doesnt know how gorgeous and talented he really is!

Just heard on this morning that Daniel is in talks with 3 musicals and 1 is the lead in the new production of hairspray.

ooh thats good!

What is hairspray about?

Here is a link so that you can see for yourself http://www.hairspraythemusical.co.uk/

has some fantastic songs in it. Watched the film many years ago.

Cheers! I just looked on Wikipedia, not sure I know any of the songs.

It seems that there is going to be a film version of Hairspray this year!

Yay Chris! Aw can't believe he actually sang that song, bet it was 'amazing'!

Oh, guys, was this on This Morning, erm, this morning? (or is that a REALLY silly question...) I knew I should watch more daytime TV!

Where did you hear this? Was in on TV ? Please tell all.
