When I started watching Rex during the Top 100 round, I saw a true star begin to emerge right before my eyes. He was an original - a "diamond in the rough". And I fell in love with his talent and charisma at first sight.
He was the very first Canadian Idol contestant in all the years that I have watched the show to make a connection with me, and the very first I voted for from Top 32 all the way to the finals (only missing one week due to attending a concert). I really did think he would win after stringing together three sensational performances during the finals (his version of the Season 3 winner single "Alive" was in my mind lightyears better than what the actual winner released), but look at all that he has done after placing second...his track record speaks for itself.
I look forward to Rex's upcoming album "Look Closer", the first single (You Got To Me) is already proving to be a hit. I may be from Ontario, but to me this talented Newfoundlander rocks my world!

Rex Goudie was a contestant on the third season on Canadian Idol; that's where I first saw him. He stood out because he was always wearing that white ball cap; in fact, when he took it off, his hair was a horror show! He looked much better with it on.
He came in second, losing the Idol crown to Melissa O'Neil. In all honesty, I thought he was a better singer than she was. However, as far as fame goes, that doesn't seem to have mattered, as he went on the cross-Canada tour with her, and did a tv special with her... so he's benefitted just as much, without actually winning.
In fact, he released an album (so did she) and his was nominated for a JUNO Award (the Canadian equivalent of a Grammy) while hers wasn't... so maybe I was right and he is the better singer!

In my opinion, I think that Rex Goudie is such an awesome singer and performer. I absolutely loved him on Canadian Idol season 3. I became a Rex Goudie fan ever since he auditioned for season 3 of Canadian Idol and I think he did a fantastic job everytime he performed. My favourite performances of Rex on Canadian Idol are: "Every Breath You Take", "Superman", and "Bulletproof." I am so happy that Rex made it so far in the competition. He is so good looking, I love the way he styles his hair and the way he dresses looks so great.
