At the beginning of the show, Magni and Toby were revealed to be in the bottom two. Both of them performed songs that they had done prior. Magni performed 'Fire' and Toby performed 'White Wedding'. Based on these performances, Supernova sent Magni home saying he was more like someone part of a band instead of a frontman. The three remaining rockers then each performed a song they felt best represented themselves. Lukas sang 'Bittersweet Symphony', Dilana performed 'Zombie' and Toby performed 'Somebody Told Me'. Based on these performances, the band sent Toby home. After further deliberation, Lukas won and became the frontman for Supernova, which meant that for the second straight season, the winner of Rock Star is a Canadian. Dilana was offered to have her album written and produced by Gilby Clarke. Dave Navarro offered to play on the album.
