Lukas Rossi

After reports earlier this week that INXS fired lead singer J.D. Fortune, it appears the Australian rock band might call it quits altogether.

"The members are scattered all around the globe at the moment," band spokeswoman Chrissy Camp told Australia's The Daily Telegraph newspaper. "But I have tracked one of them down and he's told me they will be putting out a statement about their future in the next couple of weeks."

INXS, who rose to international success with lead singer Michael Hutchence, named Fortune as their lead singer in 2005 after he won the Rockstar: INXS television talent competition. The band's previous stints with Terence Trent D'Arby and Jon Stevens as lead singers were met with lukewarm responses.

Former Rockstar: Supernova winner Lukas Rossi can identify with Fortune's plight and has extended the singer an "open invite" to stay with him and his wife in California.

"He devoted his life to helping a washed up band try and revive themselves by choosing a young talented singer," Rossi wrote of Fortune in his blog on Tuesday. "I must say it is not easy to go from nothing to superstardom in a few months.

"Press, touring, women, recording with people you barely know it's all fuckin insane ... I also went through substance abuse and almost lost everything.. If not for the amazing fans and my loving wife I would be nolonger.

"It is very easy to ignore a dove with a wounded wing in a flock of soaring eagles .. But for the flock to accept and nurture the dove and welcome it as an equal is obviously not the case. I wonder if 'those people' were ever 'dicarded' when they needed love or a shoulder. Wow I'm really pissed.

"well jd if you are out there I have a place in California and you are always welcome-and that's an open invite! It always gets better my friend and not all people suck... Much love and respect."
