Idol O'Neil, runner-up Goudie confess to romance

[~*Chris*~]

C'Est Officiellement qui va ensemble:

Citation :Canadian Idol winner Melissa O'Neil and runner-up Idol Rex Goudie confessed to CTV on Thursday that they are indeed romantically involved.

Despite O'Neil telling eTalk's Tanya Kim that the two Canadians Idols were only "best friends" during a backstage interview at the Junos, Goudie, 19, couldn't keep the secret any longer.

When CTV's Eric Longley asked, "first the question on everybody's minds -- are you two an item?" the two Idols looked at each other smiling before Goudie answered candidly.

"Yes, we are," Goudie answered as O'Neil laughed.

"We've been together and we've been doing a pretty good job keeping a secret of it since, what… our third week of Idol," Goudie expanded, causing O'Neil to buckle over in shock of the confession.

"This is a CTV News Ottawa exclusive," O'Neil, 17, said.

Goudie, a Newfoundland native, stressed that Canadian Idol is about the music and not the romantic plot twists among Idol contestants.

"Canadian Idol is more about the music. That's why nothing came out of it. If you're watching Idol, watch for the music. I mean, that's what it's all about," he said.

Goudie was nominated for both Artist of the Year and his album, Under The Lights, nominated for the Album of the Year at this year's Juno Awards in Halifax.

Goudie and O'Neil, in Ottawa on tour, agreed that winning and being runner-up in Canadian Idol has changed their lives enormously.

"Now that we're on road, with a band and everything, and we're doing concerts -- and there's people coming -- it's incredible. I think we're both very blessed," O'Neil said.

The pair also introduced the MusiCan video together at the Junos.

The two wrap up their Let It Go tour, which has played in front of sold-out crowds across Canada, on April 19th in London, Ontario.
