This was one of the reasons why he was a judge on the Aussie version of The Voice – to try to raise his profile & support in Australia. In Australia, he was known mainly as Nicole’s husband. Many people just asked ‘Who is he?’. That stint on the View was a successful move for him – he then started to hit the charts with huge album sales. He came across really well on The Voice so I am not surprised that Idol grabbed him as a judge. If he were so worried about his Oz fans he would have stayed with The Voice. Idol is only shown here on cable which most Aussies don’t have. Wouldn’t be surprised if he re-schedules his Oz tour if he can book venues for other dates.
