[edit] Australian Idol
She was voted out from the show by the viewers on October 3, 2005. She is the centre of a small amount of controversy for being the 13th member of what has previously been the top twelve contestants on the series.
While she was well liked by both the judges and the voting audience, she never managed to get into the top twelve, first losing out to fellow contestant Laura Gissara, and then losing out to Dan Spillane on the Wildcards show. It was after this that the judges on the show decided to increase the amount of contestants in the finals to thirteen, enabling her to compete in the finals.
Also having regular gigs around Sydney,(with fellow Idol contestant and good friend Chris Luder) gave Roxane a greater confidence in her performances.
