to discuss this please head to the forums.
CLICK HERE to view the video. I wonder if CBS knows it's up already. ;)
There are many speculations as to who is on the top 20 list. There is even supposed to be a leaked list, an accidently played commerical and now Mike Boogie's video is up too early. But are we naive enough to think CBS would make these mistakes or were they all to throw us off? They could all be true but they wanted us to second guess it or they could be totally bogus. Either way if CBS is not behind Mike Boogie's video appearing too soon then will he be replaced by an alternate? I doubt the producers will enjoy his screw up.

"Big Brother" is getting a big bump.
As part of a summer sked shuffle, CBS has decided to move the Saturday edition of the thrice-weekly reality sudser to Sunday nights. Move gives the skein exposure on a more heavily viewed night and also warms up the timeslot for "The Amazing Race," which shifts to Sundays in the fall.
"It seems like a good idea to get some reality fans thinking about CBS Sundays at 8," Eye scheduling and program planning supremo Kelly Kahl told Daily Variety.
"Brother" will now air Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays at 8 p.m. First Sunday seg is set for July 16, with CBS using the night to shift "Cold Case" and "Without A Trace" to their new respective timeslots at 9 and 10 p.m. Sunday.
Kahl said the fact that this year's "Big Brother" is an "all-star" edition also spurred the decision to move one night of the show to Sundays.
"We're trying to raise the profile of the show a little bit," he said. "It'll hopefully lift the Tuesday and Thursday airings as well."
For the time being, CBS plans to double-pump "Trace," continuing to air repeats of the show in its current 10 p.m. Thursday slot.
Also getting a double-pump in July: Frosh laffer "How I Met Your Mother." In addition to its regular 8:30 p.m. Monday slot, skein will also air the same night at 9:30 p.m., behind "Two and a Half Men."
"Mother" double play starts July 10 and will continue for a month, with "Old Christine" returning in August.
In another Eye sked change, the July 5 premiere of "Rock Star: Supernova" is expanding to 90 minutes. It'll air from 8-9:30 p.m."

i really hope this is a good move for big brother. i think it'll be good. remember how long it felt between saturday's show and tuesday's? way to go CBS!
There will be no rest for the wicked when Big Brother: All-Stars kicks off July 6. In fact, the only tranquil spot in the entire compound is the water-themed second story - home to the Head of Household room. Here's a tour of the $350,000 House of Extremes.
LIVING ROOM Decorated in red, orange, and black, the living room (where the evictions take place) features a 16-foot-tall wall of neon flames. Says production designer Scott Storey: "It's so hot, slick and sophisticated, it'll make you want to have a cocktail. Or kill somebody. Or both."
KITCHEN If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. "We installed brick floors for a hellacious dungeon feel," says Storey, who also added a yellow wall that is topped by cutout flames. (Are we seeing a theme here?) The wacky cabinet doors are two stories tall - as tall as the house itself.
BROTHER MUSEUM Memorable props and clothes from the past six seasons are peppered throughout the house in display cases. Among the kooky treasures: the Nomination-Ceremony keys of each of the past winners, Marcellas' Golden Veto medallion (through it's uncertain if Marcellas will be one of the All-Stars) and the outfit worn by that damn mime who drove everyone nuts in Season 4.
"CBS's Rock Star to Select Lead Singer for New Band
The new band, Supernova, formed by drummer Tommy Lee (Mötley Crüe) with bassist Jason Newsted (Metallica) and guitarist Gilby Clarke (Guns N' Roses)
March 16, 2006
New lead singer to be chosen from 16 hopefuls when the second edition of CBS's Rock Star returns summer 2006.
New album to be produced by Butch Walker (Rolling Stone Magazine's 2005 "Hot Producer Of The Year").
CBS and Mark Burnett Productions announced today that legendary musicians from some of the biggest American rock bands have joined forces to form a new band, Supernova, and will use CBS's Rock Star as the competition to determine the new lead singer.
Supernova will feature drummer Tommy Lee (Mötley Crüe), Jason Newsted (Metallica) and Gilby Clarke (Guns N' Roses). The second edition of CBS's Rock Star will premiere on the network this summer.
After the winning singer is selected on CBS's Rock Star, Supernova will record an original album, to be co-written and produced by Butch Walker (hit songwriter/producer for Avril Lavigne, Pink) that will be released in the fall before the band embarks on a world tour starting in early 2007.
"I've toured with both Gilby and Jason. They're incredible musicians and I've always wanted to play with them," said Tommy Lee. "Starting a new band with old friends on worldwide television is going to be a blast, and we're going to pull out all the stops to find the most charismatic and musically talented lead singer to front Supernova. I love breaking the rules."
Bassist Jason Newsted added, "This is a fantastic opportunity for me to play with guys I've respected for a long time. It gives us a chance to be innovators. This is a new thing. It's never been done before. We're going to break new ground musically and on television. The anticipation is building in me Lead guitarist and co-writer Gilby Clarke proclaimed, "Rock n' Roll is so alive and I'm so excited to be a part of CBS's Rock Star. This is television history. Where else can you raid three historic bands to form one great band? I can't wait for the summer to begin."
Butch Walker will join the project as co-writer and producer of the new album. Working with the dudes from Guns N' Roses, Mötley Crüe, and Metallica sounds like nothing but trouble, so I'm in! I'm looking forward to whoever the new lead singer is going to be so the guys can start corrupting their mind..!"
Dave Navarro and Brooke Burke will return as hosts, with Burke returning to the stage for introductions and Navarro returning to the judges' couch for input and evaluations. "Last year, doing Rock Star: INXS was the greatest summer job of my life," Navarro affirmed. "This year, I'm on the couch with my friends Tommy Lee, Gilby Clarke and Jason Newsted as they choose Supernova's lead singer."
This summer's edition of CBS's Rock Star will also feature some format twists with a different music celebrity or rock legend each week. Said Navarro, "Friends of mine, like Slash, Macy Gray, Moby and Rob Zombie, will join us and throw in their two cents about who should stay and who should go."
In the first season of CBS's Rock Star, rock sensation INXS found their new lead singer in Canadian heartthrob J.D. Fortune. Since the show, INXS has taken to the studio and the road, releasing their massive hit single "Pretty Vegas" and selling out every concert in their North American tour. Their new CD, "Switch," debuted in the Billboard Top 20, and is currently going gold and platinum in countries around the world.
"Millions dream of becoming a rock star...our show actually makes that happen," said Mark Burnett, creator and executive producer of CBS's Rock Star. "The winner of CBS's Rock Star will not only play in huge stadiums before sold out crowds, they will do it alongside legendary musicians from three of America's biggest, all-time rock bands who have sold a combined total of a quarter of a billion albums: Mötley Crüe, Guns N' Roses and Metallica. Fronting Supernova is the ultimate rock 'n' roll dream and it's about to come true."
Tommy Lee rose to stardom as a founding member of Mötley Crüe. One of the most successful rock bands in history, Mötley Crüe has sold over 40 million albums while also becoming the poster boys of rock star decadence. Most recently, Lee released his third solo album, Tommyland: The Ride, and announced a documentary project with award-winning filmmaker Bruce Sinofsky. His candid 2004 memoir, Tommyland, landed on The New York Times best-seller list.
Jason Newsted is a six-time Grammy winner and was a longtime member of the legendary band Metallica, one of the most successful musical acts of all time (100 million albums sold worldwide). After his departure from Metallica, Newsted created the band EchoBrain and, in 2003, he began touring with Ozzy Osbourne while also playing bass for the iconic techno-thrash band, Voivod.
Gilby Clarke was the guitarist for the iconic rock band, Guns N' Roses (90 million albums sold), traveling on their legendary and infamous three-year "Use Your Illusion" world tour. He also worked with Michael Jackson, Lenny Kravitz, Jeff Beck, MC5 and on the Freddy Mercury Tribute Concert. He was a recipient of the MTV Video Vanguard Award.
Butch Walker is best known as the songwriter, musician and producer behind hit songs for Avril Lavigne, Pink, Bowling for Soup and for Tommy Lee's recent solo album, Tommyland: The Ride. His song "My Happy Ending" went to Number One for Avril Lavigne and was the key track in her nine-time platinum album "Under My Skin," leading to him being named by Rolling Stone magazine as "Hot Producer of the Year" in 2005. Pink's new album, "I'm Not Dead," features two Butch Walker compositions.
CBS's Rock Star is produced by Mark Burnett Productions. Mark Burnett, David Goffin, Lisa Hennessy, Dave Navarro, Tommy Lee and Carl Stubner are executive producers. Conrad Riggs and Eden Gaha are co-executive producers. "
