Press day in Toronto, Canada

While the guys are currently in Toronto, Canada, another press day regarding their newly released book was on schedule. As the book was only recently released in English, it was only natural for the English-speaking media to be interested in the book just like it was with the French-speaking media at the beginning of November.

The guys had to be up pretty early to attend a couple of morning TV and radio programs in Toronto. Check out the first few pictures from a couple of media that the members of SP visited today:

And below you can check out the full interview with Chuck and Sebastien for The Morning Show that aired on Global earlier today:

First videos from Canada Sings


On August 3rd, the Canadian TV station Global TV started airing its new original singing competition called Canada Sings, in which glee clubs created on various workplaces (e.g. Toronto ZOO) are competing against each other and after each performance their skills are judged by Jane Arden, Vanilla Ice and Pierre Bouvier from Simple Plan.

On the right side you can check out one new picture of Pierre from the promotional photoshoot for Canada Sings and below you can already find the first videos from the programme that Pierre with his colleagues pre-recorded a few months ago.

The video below includes a short interview with Pierre and his thoughts on the whole concept of Canada Sings and an invitation for Global TV’s viewers:

The next video is from Canada Sings itself: the host introduces the judges and also interviews each one a bit:

And finally you can judge Pierre’s judging skills by yourself in the following video that includes one of the glee club’s performance and the judge’s comments (Pierre’s part starts at 5:30):

The Canadian station Global TV has confirmed todaz in its official press release that there is a new singing reality show in works, called “Canada Sings”. One could desribe the concept of the reality show as something between Idol and the TV series GLEE. Competing against each other will be twelve glee clubs, formed in workplaces (among them teams from Air Canada, Toronto ZOO and others).

“Canada Sings is not your average singing competition. For most, it’s next to impossible to imagine singing with your boss or workmate in a chorus, but for our twelve courageous teams, it has become an exciting reality,” commented Barb Williams, Senior Vice-President, Content, Shaw Media. The charities that each of the teams have chosen, will be in case of team’s winning financially rewarded.

The show will be hosted by ET Canada’s Matte Babel, who will be joined by three main judges: Jann Arden (Canadian singer), Vanilla Ice (American rapper, mostly known for his hit-song “Ice, Ice Baby”) and last, but definitely not the least, our very own Pierre Bouvier, the lead singer of Simple Plan.

Each of the aired episodes (6 x 1 hour) will feature two competing teams with the judging panel declaring the winning glee club at the end of the hour. The brodcast date of Canada Sings is yet to be confirmed by Global TV.

And in case you are in Toronto this Wednesday or Thursday, you can book free tickets for the taping of the show. More info in the press release of Coalition Entertainment.
