A/N: Just a bit of fun.....
I got the idea from Lucky Eponine's Hogwarts school Musical story....read that...it's funny stuff.

---------

Harry sat at the Gryffindor table for the first day of his last year at Hogwarts as Dumbledore gave his speech. He was struck with a sudden pang in his stomach, as he realized that this would be the last ever speech like this he would hear, that is, unless he came back to teach.

Many of you who are Muggle-Born, and maybe others of you, will have heard of the Muggle Contest, called Pop Idol'. I must admit I am an avid viewer whenever I have the time, and I have come to the conclusion that it would be an amusing diversion to hold a similar contest here. Every student is required to audition, and the winner will recieve 1000 galleons, and the chance to go on tour with the Weird Sisters.

At this everyone gasped.

Harry sat in the Gryffindor Common Room, and thought long and hard about the competition. What would he sing? What if he made a complete fool out of himself? Ron came towards him, with a look of extreme worry on his face.

Can you believe this Hogwarts Idol contest? I mean, what's Dumbledore playing at?If you read the information notices, and paid attention during the speech, Ronald, you would then know that Professor Dumbledore wants to put more emphasis on the arts this year.

Hermione was now standing above the two boys, a sheet of parchment in her hand. Ron snatched it away from her.

Harry...do you know who he's picked for the judges?!

Harry looked at the slip of parchment.

Professor Flitwick, Professor McGonagall, and .... PROFESSOR SNAPE?!

Hermione's expression turned grim, Ron's continued to look worried, and Harry looked as if he had swallowed his quill.

I'm doomed. There's nothing else to be said. Doomed.

Harry lay in his bed awaiting the day when he would be forced to sing in front of Professor Snape. His stomach felt as if it was filled with green sludge, and more than once he wondered at the cruelty of Dumbledore at apointing such a judge.

A/N: Short...I know...but hey...it's only the beginning!
