Tuesday, June 26

9:30 p.m. – Instant Star – “Lose Yourself” – SEASON 3 PREMIERE
Instant Star Season 3 introduces Juno nominee Cory Lee as Karma, the newest Instant Star and Jude Harrison’s (Alexz Johnson) instant rival!

Happy that she got her way with Darius, Jude is on top of the world until “revealing” photos of her surface and a blackmailer threatens to destroy her hard-won credibility. Things get even stickier for Jude when Karma spills everything to Darius. He seizes the opportunity to regain control, using the photos as leverage over Jude. Absent for many weeks, Tommy returns to the scene with a special “friend” in tow. Is it finally time for Jude to move on once and for all?

Canada's Next Top Model

In the news: Canada’s Next Top Model

Craig Courtice of the National Post talks to last week’s eliminated contestant:

  • Blame it on the mail
    Stefani Groulx of Cornwall, Ont., couriered her Next Top Model application two days before it was due. The next day she went online to make sure the package had arrived safely. It hadn’t. “I was freaking out,” Groulx says. “If it wasn’t in Toronto, I was screwed. I called Canada Post, gave them my tracking number, blah, blah, blah. They checked the number and they said, ‘You know what? It’s not in Cornwall, but it’s not in Toronto, either. We’re not sure where it is.’
