Dave Navarro Slams Rock Star Supernova Leak Rumors  8/31/06

Get Tickets to the Supernova Live Tour

Rocker Dave Navarro has blasted veteran Hollywood columnist Janet Charlton for supposedly leaking the winner of his reality show Rock Star: Supernova on her website, insisting she "doesn't have a clue as to what she's talking about."

Charlton claimed she had inside information on who would be named the new lead singer for the band Supernova, even though the show is live and the winner won't officially be announced until the final episode of the show on 13 September (06).

The series follows the search for a vocalist to join the new band, formed by ex-Motley Crue drummer Tommy Lee, former Metallica bassist Jason Newsted and one-time Guns N' Roses guitarist Gilbey Clarke.

Navarro slammed Charlton on his website yesterday (29AUG06), saying he had no idea who she is and saying, "Damn, there are some funny rumors around regarding the show.

"First of all, I don't know who Janet Charlton is... she doesn't have a clue as to what she is talking about. If she had an inside source... Name it! Come on! I dare you! Name it!

"Trust me... Nobody knows (the winner) until it's over. In fact, if there is one thing I CAN share, it's that Supernova has yet to be on the same page with each other in terms of favorites and they are waiting to see if their ideas line up in the coming weeks based on the remaining performances. Very diplomatic and democratic."

Charlton claimed on her website that contestant Lukas Rossi has already been selected by band members because they thought he would be the "best fit."
