Season of television series
The second season of New Zealand Idol commenced on 3 July 2005. The judges were Paul Ellis , Jackie Clarke and Frankie Stevens .
Auditions [ edit ]
The auditions were held at the following locations:
Those who were successful would proceed to the "Top 60" theatre rounds held at the Telstraclear Pacific Events Centre in Auckland .
Theatre Week [ edit ]
The successful contestants who made it through to the "Top 60" rounds would spend a gruelling three days at the theatre.
Day One : Contestants, in groups of six, were to sing in turn, a cappella , a song of their own choice. This year the judges deliberated immediately after each line sang, then delivered the verdict.
Eliminated : Carlie Howe, Francis Walker, Rachael, Kylie Adams, Amomai Pihema, Sera Devcich, Sally, Jamie,
Day Two : Trio performances would test the contestants' teamwork skills, with the guys performing Ben E. King 's "Stand by Me ", while the girls would perform Bill Withers ' classic "Lean on Me ." At the end of this, the group was once more reduced by a further 12.
Eliminated : Herb, Tipene, Cre'-Ammon, Krystel, Ruth, Alison, Sarah,
Day Three : The remaining 36 contestants have one last opportunity to impress the judges. Once again they were to perform solo, (a cappella ), in front of the judges.
Eliminated : Lance Ainofo, Tiresa, Nikki, Letitia, Peter Jackson, Lorna, Jamie Lamb,
The decision of the final cut to the "Top 24" was delivered to three groups of twelve, with one group being sent home.
