Probably. But why would they prefer Sisqo or Ivana? if they are watching the show whey want entertained, don't they? Stephan is entertaining.
So either the casual viewer doesn't bother to vote or they vote for someone who doesn't contribute much to the show in the way of entertainment...well, that is not how it SHOULD be, but past experience tells me that the public can't cope with anyone who isn't totally non - threatening.
It says a lot about the British public, I think, and their fear of the unknown.
