I am so angry with the X FACTOR

Yes I am. How dare they sack Dannii?! Then to add insult to injury, hire that N-Dubz chav girl to replace her? I am most miffed and I will henceforth scrub Simon Cowell off my christmas card list.

Also, if Mel B replaces Chezza, it will resemble a saturday fish market when her and Tulisa start moaning about the acts.

I know that most of you on MN don't care about the X Factor but I do.

They've sacked Danni?!?! Why?! The muppets...!

madhattershouse · 15/05/2011 22:26

Bring back Sharon Osbourne!!!!

bandgeek · 15/05/2011 22:26

I agree. Dannii was my favourite thing about the X-Factor.

It's all a big farce these days anyway, she's better off out of it [I need a life]

PotteringAlong · 15/05/2011 22:28

Ooh, yes! I liked Sharon osbourne. Am not really liking the idea of mel B. What about all the stand in Danni's from
last year?

squeakytoy · 15/05/2011 22:28

Let Sinitta do it, if she can get her head out of Cowells arse for long enough. Grin

frasersmummy · 15/05/2011 22:28

I read she couldnt do it due to it clashing with Autralia has talent...

maybe thats a myth

They've sacked her because N-Dubz mouthpiece is more fitting for their demographic. So what they're saying is their demographic is idiots.

They haven;t. Dannii is doing Australia's got Talent and the 2 clash - she chose AGT instead of Farce Factor.
(that's from Dannii's "people")

squeakytoy · 15/05/2011 22:29

Well, Cher Lloyd was certainly in that demographic. Not that she has done much since other than gurn her way around the USA and get more tatts.

FunnysInTheGarden · 15/05/2011 22:30

Don't be angry. It is such a waste of NRG.............as for are YUBU? I have no idea......

"so what they're saying is their demographic are idiots"

is that like some kind of trick question? Grin Grin pmsl

2blessed2bstressed · 15/05/2011 22:31

This I did not know!
Sounds like Louis Walsh will be only judge the same...and he's rubbish. Ah well, frees up my Saturday nights cos I won't be watching Smile

SilveryMoon · 15/05/2011 22:32

Right, well, won't be watching that anymore either then Sad
I'm not watchign BGT either as can't stand Michael McIntyre.

ElfOnTheTopShelf · 15/05/2011 22:32

I thought she'd taken the decision not to go back? She's pulled out due to clashing jobs apparently.

Cant imagine Dannii not telling the truth if they'd sacked her.

squeakytoy · 15/05/2011 22:33

Its the same with Britains Got Talent, the judges now are crap, and the show is crap too.

stressheaderic · 15/05/2011 22:33

Dannii was always my favourite on X-Factor.
Don't think I'll bother with it this year. Only usually watch it cos its cold and I'm saving up for Xmas so can't play out. I'll find something else to do!

5318008 · 15/05/2011 22:33

lol at waste of NRG

caughtinanet · 15/05/2011 22:33

I don't watch X Factor so don't care either way but I think you may be being a bit unfair to Tulisa, I've seen her on other programmes and she seems fairly articulate, not an idiot by any means.

bupcakesandcunting · 15/05/2011 22:36

I can imagine she'd say it was due to work commitments because it's humilating to admit you've not only been sacked but replaced by someone younger and less established. She's hung on whilst Simon dithers about who will be on the panel so she might feel daft about that, too.

Cowell seriously is a fucking nobrot. He's left all of them dangling about their jobs until the last minute because he thinks that life is a pantomime for his amusal, not real life where people have to consider their families/travelling etc. I have gone right off him, the weirdy-haired misanthrope fuck.

Amusal? I'm so angry that I am making up words dagnamit.

Off topic but I know someone who has just had a baby girl and named her Tulisa after this girl Confused

QuickLookBusy · 15/05/2011 22:38

Feck sake, she was the only judge we liked in this house. Louis is not on this planet, Chez is well you know, Simon is a scum bag leary what not.

Danni brought a little bit of elegance and class. Well her outfits did.

And she WON last year!

They are obviously aiming the programme at kiddies now.

bupcakesandcunting · 15/05/2011 22:39

She might be articulate, caughtinanet, but she makes idiot music for idiots, seems to be ok with being linked to gang crime and hangs around with that Dappie sort without resorting to homicide. How can you trust her judgement after that?

OP posts:
GetOrfMoiCase · 15/05/2011 22:41

I like Tulisa - she comes across really well. I think she will be good on the show.

it does seem though that Cowell cannot be arsed with the UK show now he has started the US one, so it will probably be a load of arse.

If they bring Sharon Osbourne back I definitely will not watch - I can't stand the gobby bullying cow.
