Australian Idol[edit]
At the Mt Isa auditions Klancie was the first successful contestant on Australian Idol 2006 by singing "Always on My Mind" making it into the Top 124 in Sydney. During the first semi final round, Klancie sang "Not Ready to Make Nice" by Dixie Chicks but did not accrue enough votes to advance.
On September 4, the judges advanced Klancie into the Top 12 as the third of four successful wildcard contestants.
On September 25, Klancie performed the number one hit "(If You're Not in It for Love) I'm Outta Here!" by Shania Twain. Despite some positive comments from the judges, Klancie Keough was eliminated from the show, receiving the least amount of votes from home viewers.
The media and many social commentators cited her incessant use of American country and western vocals and songs as the reason for her lack of popularity. [unverified]
