Did you see the French version excerpts they played early on Wednesday night? Interesting.

Judging from what little of the French auditions they showed Wednesday night, I think we'd be the ones waving the white flags.
Over there it has the utterly uncool title "A la Recherche de la Nouvelle Star," which pretty much translates as "The Search for a New Star."
I've watched some video from the French show; the funniest part is that they're making them sing bad 70s songs too, OUR bad 70s songs. Lemme tell ya, "Oh What a Night (December 1963)" sounds like CRAP when it's sung in French by a bunch of teenagers.
