Jailbait shouldn't have even BEEN in the finale.They should have never gotten past Heaven the Band.....The best competition that year was Catte Adams and Mara Getz in the female vocalist...Could've made a case for either...And the only other decision that was questionable was Barbara Baan beating Micaela...

i know who j.d. roth is, that's for sure. (die hard gameshow fan here)

@mscandyo they ,Jailbait did sign with Atlantic. Abby was a Jailbait but not on Starsearch. Infighting and lawyers killed the goose. Typical story..

[mscandyo]

Wow, thanks for all the info. ;o) So the guys did get afew bucks before the finals.

They did win money. They explained (in the first 3 seasons) that the returning champion and the challenger each won $1,000 and that week's champion won an additional $1,000. The champion went home with $2,000 every week and the losing challenger went home with $1,000. I don't know how long this went on for but it was definitely the case for the first 3 seasons.

You wouldn't believe the amount of working actors/singers that came out of those specials in the first 3 seasons. They include Tiffany, J.D. Roth, Kristy Swanson, Ami Dolenz, Elisa Fiorillo, Giovanni Ribisi, Lindsay Price, Lara Flynn Boyle, Shanice, Christian Hoff, Julie St. Claire and I'm sure I'm forgetting some names. In the 4th season they began having Junior and Teen vocalists and dancers compete during the regular season but only in those 2 categories. The specials had all the categories.

This is a bit late but I have answers for you, Wheeloffortunefan999 and booboo900. The first 3 seasons of Star Search didn't have Junior and Teen competitions as part of the regular season. This didn't start until the 4th season. In the 1st season they had a Junior Star Search special (the one Tiffany competed in) and in the 2nd and 3rd season they had Junior/Teen specials. In the 2nd season J.D Roth was the teen actor finalist opposite Kristy Swanson. They lost to Ami Dolenz and some guy.

Yes, they were always a great time at CD's. It's funny to look at all the speculation about Jailbait after all these years but who should have won the final? Let's take a poll.

I used to see Jailbait play live at CD's Cafe in Norwalk, CT back in the day. They were a good time, party band and the girls were HOT! I always wondered what happened to them.

[mscandyo]

I googled Jailbait. ALOT of junk, but found some members.Says about Abby Lynn, on CDBaby, SHE signed SOLO with Atlantic & had a top 20 on the DANCE charts. Didn't say anything about the band being signed, so I don't know what's goin on there. Both LW & Jailbait seem to have had little success thanks to Star Search. Limos = dime a dozen, kids rent them for prom. Fly in gigs, not a perk, all bands have to repay the record company thru touring. 1st record: all money goes to company. no joke
