Last Saturday's Magnum Kings and Queens auditions held in Kingston saw a huge turnout, as well as a showcase of great talent.From last week's Portmore auditions, the 10 contestants who were selected the previous week were narrowed down, with only four advancing to the second round of the competition. The two princesses were Lushus and Khameleon, while the princes were Konscious and Day Injah.

The ladies in Kingston were said to have represented and came out in full force.
"For me, I think the girls outdid the males with some very strong lyrics and their performance was good," Miss Kitty, one of the judges, said.
Unlike the other females who did great, Little Whiss should have stayed home as her performance was far from great and was cut before the finish. The mention of 'fat' in her song, though she was not on the leaner side of things, did not go well with Miss Kitty, whose comment was, "No, don't talk 'bout fat. Wi nuh use the word fat. Wi talk 'bout fluffy 'cause me fluffy."
Wissy was one of the males who did well and his performance and song were praised by the judges.
Back from the last audition, Elements made a second attempt but was told by the judges that, like his first performance, something was still lacking.
In the end, the top five female contestants who made it were Lava K, Lady Bling, Zeelamac, Cinderalla and Kizzy D. While for the males it was Wissy, Senita, Ras Akkurate, Gibralta and Melloquence.
It's now left up to you, the public to vote and watch TVJ next Saturday to see who advances to the next round of the competition.
