THIS APPEARED IN THE HERALD SUN
Still on Idol - Guy "Fro Boy" Sebastian is back home in Australia after spending some time in the US working on his new album. He made quite a name for himself while over there. As well as being spotted in the audience of American Idol, he also performed Angels Brought Me Here on the show, to rave reviews from the judges (yes, even nasty Simon Cowell). Sebastian has checked in with friends and family in Adelaide and is now in Sydney continuing work on his second album, due out later this year. And our spies tell us he was in the audience at last night's Justin Timberlake concert in Sydney.
Whatever you do, don't ask him for a photo, Guy.
ALSO...
Yahoo say Guy's going overseas to USA again next week!
Single in September, Album October, and *sob* the concert will be November/December.
That concert tour is soooo long away.

OK....GET READY TO BE JEALOUS PPL.......read it an weep!!!..
Justin T's Concert last night! Our beloved fro.....GUY SEBASTIAN !!! whoo hoo!
I must say, i was really hoping that he'd be there, because i know how much he likes JT as well. So when we were parking the car i was looking out for his yellow RX8, then when i was walking around FOX Studios i kept an eye out for a fro.
Anyway me and my friends got there at 10.30am to line up becos it was first in first dressed. This was very annoying and frustrating and i vowed never to do it again.... (with one exception GUY's concert of course)
By 8pm i was really tired and wanted the concert to be over and done with!
BUT then my luck changed, i was sitting on the seats on the right hand side of the stage, when all of a sudden, the people on the dance floor started creating alot of comotion where the entrance was. I could see people pointing and looking at the entrance, my heart started pounding and i thought.... could it be GUY!
Anyway i looked over and GUY was there arghh!!!! He walked in with one other security dude. He was wearing his jeans, white shirt and black blazer and he had his fro out in all its glory. Then he sat across from the stage. People from their seats got up and started shaking his hand and saying hi and talking to him, it was really nice to see, that everyone was still interested in him! Meanwhile me and my sis got up and started shouting 'Oh my God, Guy Sebastian's here' and jumping up and down like teeny boppers (im 25 and shes 29!) everyone around us was like whats going on cos we were freaking out too much. Just seeing him there just like 50 meters away, MADE MY NIGHT! i didnt care about how crap it was standing in line for 8 hours - it was all worth it cos i saw GUY again!!!
By the time i got over the excitement reached for my camera and was leaving to run to him, the lights went out and JT was about to go on stage! DAMN!!!
I must say that JT's concert was AWESOME!!! He is an extremely talented musician! That night he didnt have any props or back up dancers, it was just about the music and his voice. He played the piano and guitar and even did some beat boxing! He was great!! Well worth the money. Anyway Enough of JT.
It was funny becos while watching Justin, i was watching GUY as well!!! He was soooo cute! Very intently watching him as if he was looking at what he should and shouldnt do for his own. Then when JT sang 'Rock your body' Guy was full on into it dancing with his upper body the way he does and clapping along he was full on into it! It was so nice to see that he was having a great time and so was i! JT on one side Guy on the other!! who could ask for more!!! hahahah
I wanted to get a photo with him but understandably he left 10 mins before it ended!
It was OK though just to see him and be in the same room again was good enough for me!

THIS IS THE REAL GUY......FROM SOMEONE WHO HAD LUCH WITH HIM
A big thanks to jo for allowing me to post this report Jo and Rach won the lunch with GUY competition
We arrived at the Hardrock Cafe at 12.30 as planned and were taken upstairs to a ropped off area. The other winners were all there and pretty soon after a girl from BMG arrived - she is Guys PR manager - she was really lovely - pretty soon she got a call saying he was in a cab and on his way - well i just started shaking - she kept telling us that there was no rush for anything - we had plenty of time and Guy would talk to us all and to remeber that he is just like the rest of us and nothing had changed him - that he was still a practical joker. sooooooo as I was sitting at the end of the table next to the stair well next thing I looked down and up coming was a big FRO - hahah he had arrived - he had a big smile for us all and big hello to everyone - once seated he put on his beanie someoneask him if he wore the same one and he laughed and so no - he had uumm quite a few hundred - he loves beanies (go figure hey).
Anyway so down to lunch we sat and he just started talking telling us stories of his overseas trips - people asked him questions and that lead to other stories and tales etc. So I will try and tell you what we learned today about Guy that we may not have already known.
First off someone asked him how he was going - this girl said she was worried that he was just working himself into the ground with all the committments and travel etc - (something that has been discussed here before) - he answered it that he was doing this for him - all the hard work was for his career and that it was fine - that he was fine and that there was no need to worry - he likened it to when he used to work as a forklift driver working from 6.00am to 6.00pm and that that was the hardest he has ever worked and what for - he got nothing out of it - for all this hard work he was getting something out of It - he also went on to say that BMG really look after him (reps were there - lol) as the girl from BMG said that there was no point in exhausting him - from an outsiders point of view it looked like he was really happy and had good people around him.
He talked about driving home to Adelaide and back to Sydney - I asked him did he really run out of petrol and hitch hike (not doubting mama) he laughed and asked how I new - hehe and his assistant was kinda shocked that he had hitch hiked - naughty boy - but he was driving along and as he put it - music going - tapping on the steering wheel with bro's in car and mum when he could hear this bepping sound and didn't know what it was - this is a long stretch of road 200K with no petrol stations and as he had down it a few days earlier he thought he would be ok - but as it turns out and he told this story to 10 ladies who honeslty all had blank smiles and just nodded - his car has 6 gears and he was driving in gear 5 thus revving the motor too high and using more fuel - thus he run out 19k short of the nearest petrol station - he said the guy that pulled him over and took him to the station gave him a lecture on how fast he was driving cause he had overtaken this person earlier - Guy told how his mum and bro's were stuck in the car at 10.00pm at night and were a bit scared - the cops pulled up first and had a look - then in the middle of know where some car pulled up behind them - then drove round the front of the car - his mum and bro's were very scared - all the windows were fogged up and the just sat there - so with a bit of petrol guy had to get back to the car - next thing a girl pulls into the station and she has guys cd playing - he said she just looked at him and shook her head as not to believe it - she gave him a lift back to his car - she musn't of believed her luck - anyway the whole time he was telling the story he was using funny voices and pulling all kinds of faces - he is just so natural and relaxed and he just made all of us relax - honeslty he could host his own show with all the faces/voices he does -well he spoke about his time overseas - he spoke about meeting and writing with Brian McKnight and I got the feeling Brian wasn't quite was Guy thought he would be -he told how he went into a little club one night and there was this guy playing the drums and he was really really good so at the end of the show Guy just went up to him and said - your going to be my drummer - the guy didn't know who he was or anything - but apparently know can't believe he is going to be coming out here to be guys drummer - i think he said he was only 19 - guy laughed and said he has sent me 100 emails just checking it's still on.
I asked him if he would be recording he album in Syndey or o/s and he said he would probably actually be recording it at his unit - he said he has a two bedroom place and he has turned one room into a studio and he likes to record where he feels most relaxed and that is at home.
He had been to the Justin Timberlake concert the night before and spoke about how it wasn't that great - there were good parts but it was a bit indulgent of Justin - as it wasn't about the crowd apparently Justin had on some sort of cap pulled right down over his eyes so Guy said he really wasn't into the crowd and that paying that much money you have to do it for the audience and they should have gotten more for their money - The girl from BMG told us that Ed St James??? who i think is the big wig at BMG rang to find out where they were and she told him that they had just arrived and so he just looked for where a mass of people were and sure enough there was guy - he spoke about not being able to go out and not get recognised and that once one noticed you the rest just followed. They both also talked about having lunch with Andre from Outkast last week and how great he was but Guy said he was annoying as he kept on tapping and banging cups, bottles etc the whole way through dinner.

continued......I KNOW THIS IS LONG.....BUT PLEASE READ THE REST....
There was a car in Hard Rock sort of up high and guy said he had to get into it and they had to use a ladder and he was terrified - he is apparently extremely affraid of heights - he told us as a kid he couldnt' walk down the side of a jetty because of the height - he had to walk down the middle and if he went to the side he had to be on his stomach - which made me think of just how scared he must of been on that rollercoaster with shannon. He spoke about that he hadn't seen Shannons concert yet but was going with Levi I think he said either later this week to see it - they had got tickets - he said he really connected with Shannon and Levi the most and that Levi and Shannon were "real" - that Levi is very geniune. he also said he had written a song for Paulini's album but then she decided to do all covers so he turned it from a girl to a guy and now he is going to use the song on the album.
As I posted before the single is out in September, Album October and touring Nov/Dec and he wants to do all areas - but the BMG girl said any little hick up in schedules could put the album back two weeks.
As i said the whole way through he uses funny voices to tell a story and just pulls faces - and being at hard rock there was music playing and every now and then he would just start grooving in his chair. he obviously is a man on a schedule - half way through his lunch he had to stop eating and go have a couple of quick photo taken for something - and after he lefted us he was off to play cricket with some people who had won another competition with him.
He said he had been offered to promote other gear like pepsi but that he didn't want to be known for that - he didn't want to be known for just promoting things - ok again from my point of view it really is about the music for him and he is obviously thinking (or someone is) about his future.
He said he hates sydney but is treating it like a holiday - that BMG were paying for anything so he thinks of it as a long holiday.
I am pretty sure they said he was back off to the states next week and the reason why he drove to and from adelaide was to spend time with family.
I am pretty sure at one point one of the girls asked him either about Paradise or about church in general - I am pretty sure it was about Paradise and he said he dosn't go there any more, that is just isn't the same - that he now prefers to go to church when he is overseas - which I found very upsetting - I guess for me church is so important and I have two churches I go too in times of need as such - and I thought Paradise was important to him so loosing that as such I am thinking would be very hard - It saddened me he dosn't feel he can go there anymore.
I wanted to ask him about Ollie as I just love Ollie's voice and he is amazing at writing - so I just said that we often read in the papers that his younger brothers want to be singers but does Ollie want to further his career as such or is he just happy doing what he is doing - I said how I loved Ollies voice and how I thought he too was very very talented - Guy kinda looked at me and asked had I heard him sing - which I guess because I was with Rachael from NSW he presumed I was too - anyway he said that Ollie was happy doing his thing but down the track he could see them hanging around togetherand writing songs - he said his two loves are performing live and that he loves the audience and being with fans and that his second love is writing music and down the track if life isn't as it is nowthat he can see him and Ollie writing stuff together.
One thing that was really lovely is that he asked us all what we did -he went around the table and asked us about us - which was really sweet - he now refers to Rachael as ballerina - lol
So at the end of lunch we were all allowed to go over in two's and have our photos taken and get stuff signed. This is when we gave him the book - he loved it - and he had read some of the songs that had been written - he started flicking through the book - and then said he would read it one day perhaps on his flight next week - speaking of the book is really really did look great. anyway so well this is the best part - he stood between rach and i and he is just so cuddly -seriuosly you just want to hug him - he put his arms around us andwe had pics taken - then lol he stuck his leg out (he's not very flexible) and said lets do a ballet pose - he can't lift his leg very high - hopefully when rach gets home later she will be able to upload a few pics from her digital or if not i will get some to dons soon - anyway I asked him to sign my cd for my kids which is did a love guy and a fro - i then asked him to sign a photo of my three kids - which again he did a love guy - then proceded to draw a fro on one of my sons - he loves it. he spent a bit of time with each of us - one girl wanted to sing for him - she had asked whether he would be auditioning for back up singers - anyway she started to sing angels - she had a really really good voice - and then guy sung some as well - and his voice is just so beautiful - so soulful - that part was a blessing - hearing him sing just a little - anyway then rach went back for a second photo as she didn't think one of her cameras'had worked (yes she took two - lol) - anyway thats when i went up to him and asked him for a favour - i told him about ali and how he hadn't been well and i told him he could say no - there was no pressure and i understood if he couldn't - no problems he said - get them on the phone - he was a true gentleman.

OMG...I KNOW....I KNOW....THERE'S MORE...HAHA.... BUT HEY IF IT'S ABOUT GUY YA WANNA KNOW...RIGHT ?
oh that reminds me he is really great with kids - the youngest one there today was I think about 8 or 9 anyway she had the curliest black hair and she had a sign little fro big fro for her and guy -anyway she was excited of course and when he came she went all quiet - guy sat next to her and the bmg girl was on the other side - anyway this girl wanted to ask guy a question but went all shy and said no she couldn't do it and that everyone probably asked that question - anyway finally the bmg girl (I wish I could remember her name as she was so nice) anyway she asked the question which was "did it hurt when you got your ear pierced" guy laughed and said no one has ever asked me that - he went on to tell that when he got it down the lady who did it told him it hurts if you have it done up the top of your ear or in the middle but the lobe doesn’t - so he said he is allergic to pain and a big sook when it comes to pain he would have it on the lope and relaxed cause he thought it wouldn't hurt - and the face he pulled when it went in - he said man it hurt - and for those interested he had a G in his ear made out of little diamonds - very cute. anyway this little girl was quite shy all day and at the end he picked her up and she is screaming put me down - the rest of us were screaming pick me up - no only joking - and he really was fantastic to her - as he was to us all - so nice .....
I can't stop bling - honestly the build up and now what - i will probably never get the chance to talk to him again and now I am all sad - seriously i would love to talk to him about his philosophies of life, love and religion - he is such a gentleman

about Guy being on Hot source, I think alot of Guy fans were disapointed he wasn't on it but don't stress because he will on there wednesday the 30th, , somebody posted it on the yahoo group, I hope it's true because I couldn't handle watching a show where people discuss whether or not they like skating or surfing again.............
