Bad Boy Ben
This week we'll see a softer side to wide-boy Ben.
During his session with Bill, Zoe and stagecraft trainer Pete, Ben seemed worried about the song he's performing as his solo number this week.
The Joseph experts assured him that he has nothing to worry about. They believe that this week his song gives him the perfect chance to show his vulnerable side, although now that he's been given such an opportunity to change public opinion of him, he seems too afraid to do it.
"You're gonna eat this song, don't worry about it. I wish I could sing like that," said Bill, reassuringly.
But Ben remained really worried, due to the fact he has to hit a really high note in the number. "There is no power left in my voice," he pleaded.
But Zoe wouldn't take any nonsense. "You've got to believe that you can do the high notes," she said. The tough love approach worked and Ben hit it perfectly. leaving Bill and Zoe impressed. "You are interpreting things so well, no one can teach you this," said Bill.
Afterwards, Bill said that he had high hopes for Ben, as this week's song would banish opinions that he's a cocky Joseph.
"What I saw there was vulnerability and I've never seen that before," he said.

YOU CAN DO IT THIS WEEK BEN!! Just believe in yourself, and remember how well you sang with "he's my brother" where you proved that not only are you a contender..but a true Joeseph in the making. Once you prove you can sing ballads, you have the total package to be on that stage as the winning Joeseph.
Addicted Fan

LOUISE,SCARBOROUGH
COME ON BEN.YOU CAN DO IT.YOU DESERVE TO BE JOSEPH.YOU ARE THE BEST BY FAR.
Louise
You are so good at selling a song - your performances are always genuine,committed and believable (the same cannot be said for all of the other contenders) Why don't you sing ballads? Your interpreatation of 'He's My Brother' to keep you in the competition a couple of weeks ago was so moving in its simplicity and poise. I would love to see you tackling a balled on your own.
Lucy~in love with ben
GOSH ben I love you..you are amazing...And absolutly gorgeous..Can I have your phone number maybe...You have the looks...The smile...The attitude...The talent...To Be Joseph!!!Love you loads xxxx

Another Ben Fan
Ben, after watching you over the last few weeks.. I have reached the conclusion that you really DO have what it takes to be Joseph. You have a great personality and stage prescence, not to mention star quality. All you need to do now is belive in yourself, and you will make it to the end. You deserve to make it to the west end as Joseph, and I would definitely buy a ticket to come and see you.

I knew Ben at school and it's amazing to see how far he has come I know that he can go further if he doesn't let being in the bottom 2 get to him

Poor Ben, last week he just picked the wrong song because he was much better in the sing-off.

Well done Ben. You sang and danced wonderfully and you're doing the right thing to be positive because you are very talented and destined for great things! Hopefully everyone else will start to appreciate you and you can really shine.
BEN ELLIS FAN.
Ben you should be so proud of yourself. Absolutely fantastic how you danced and still held a great vocal performance. No way you were in the bottom 2 there was a few lucky Josephs on Saturday. Keep up the good work xxxxxxxxxx
Liam
BEN IS THE BEST !!
Liz
Ben you coped so well in the sing off although you should never have been in the bottom two. There were probably 4 or 5 weaker than you. Stay positive and justice will be yours. Vote for Ben he deserves it.

Ben certainly didn't deserve to be in the bottom two! His performance was very professional, he has the right attitude and looks every inch a Joseph! Go, go, go Ben and good luck this Saturday. We'll all be voting for you here!
Your No.2 Fan
or is that no.3 or even no. 4....way way behind your mum, dad, brothers, and of course your Aunty Sharon. We are all so proud of you and can't wait for Saturday's show - there is no way you should have been in the bottom 2 !!
