They need to get rid of tulisa (that stupid hand thing she does at the beg makes me want to slap her) and Kelly. They are both so unprofessional and just shit

Bring back Danni!

Nit cheryl though - hated her

squeakyfreakytoy · 30/10/2011 22:30

Bring back Sharon I say! Get an older woman with a bit of personality on there! Grin

I think she has just pulled a sickie to go home and party for halloween. They love a bit of that in the States. Couldn't be arsed to stick around for the UK's piss poor efforts!

GreenEyesandNiceHam · 30/10/2011 22:43

I laughed myself silly at the voice too Grin

BUT, to be fair, I myself have been really ill, honest to betsy, too poorly can't stay off the bog long enough to go into work; and STILL put the Ringing In Sick voice on Grin.

God knows why I didnt just talk normally, sickness & diarrhoea doesn't normally affect the voice, but I couldn't help myself. It's the Ringing In Sick voice

LineRunnerWitchyMother · 30/10/2011 22:44

It was cringe-making.

ShriekingLisa · 30/10/2011 23:37

Apparently Simon has given her 48 hours to get back to the UK o keep her place on the panel. shes fallen out with Tulisa over last weeks bullying row. Louis has being instructed to either axe Kelly or Tulisa and replace them with Cheryl, so i think she wont be back and Cheryl will replace Kelly next week

She did provide a sick note though,Dr Conrad Murray signed it.

LaurieFairyCake · 31/10/2011 08:10

I know it's in the Daily Mail Blush but according to her doctors her sore throat is so awful they don't even know what it is.

That's what made me laugh - a sore throat so bad and so rare (word used in the article) that they don't know what it is. Hmm

It's a sore throat - who needs an explanation?

ilovemydogandMrObama · 31/10/2011 08:14

Even if you give her the benefit of doubt, why does a sore throat/being sick necessitate her being in Los Angeles when she's working in London? Hmm

filiscare · 31/10/2011 08:15

Grin at boocha

coraltoes · 31/10/2011 08:16

I know when my throat hurts I can't bear the thought of flying first class, overnight, with pyjamas, blanket, flat bed, films on streram and gin and tonics on tap. Poor love. Erhumm

AmberLeaf · 31/10/2011 09:46

I laughed at the 'rare' sore throat Grin

ConstanceTenchOfZombies · 31/10/2011 10:36

Ha, they are taking the piss on "This Morning" right now, - have asked people to 'phone in with their best 'call in sick' stories. Grin

valiumredhead · 31/10/2011 10:38

Rare sore throat! Grin

WilsonFrickett · 31/10/2011 10:48

You lot are big meanies. She. Can't. Even. Swallow. Her. Own. Saliva.

So WTF is she doing with it then? Gobbing down the side of her bed? Or does she have someone doing suction for her?

(Too much???)

BOOareHaunting · 31/10/2011 10:57

Grin @ Wilson.

So her 'rare' sore throats is not one of many choices (can't spell warning)

tonsilitis
quincy's
strep throat
lyrangitis
pharyngitis
uvelitis

NO Hmm what other parts of the throat are there to get infected?

She may be ill I get that, and if she really is ill then she's entitled to time off - but to invent a sore throat like no other - that's just bollocks. [hgrin]

TeWihara · 31/10/2011 11:02

It was funny - but please don't let them replace her with Cheryl!! I like Kelly...

midnightexpress · 31/10/2011 11:03

I think Chezza's too savvy to come back. The show is clearly floundering.

Though on reflection, I guess she wasn't savvy enough to realise that her serial shagger of an XH was, in fact, a serial shagger, or that Derek Hough might not be entirely heterosexual-- so what do I know?

Replacing Kelly Rowland with Alexandra Burke would be a bit of an admission of failure though, wouldn't it?

WilsonFrickett · 31/10/2011 11:30

Good work Boo. Don't they have Strepsils in that there US of A?

ChooChooWowWow · 31/10/2011 11:35

I knew this thread would be about that. DH and I cracked up. Grin

didldidi · 31/10/2011 11:35

I have big tonsils anyway so when I get tonsilitis I cannot swallow my own saliva and have had to resort to spitting it out!

Pagwatch · 31/10/2011 11:40

They interviewed Sophie Habbibis on radio 5 this morning and were taking the piss but the poor love didn't spot it.

Nicky Campbell said 'it was incredibly brave of Kelly to make it to the phone like that wasn't it'. 'oh yes' said Sophie all dewy eyed. Poor girl. Shafted sideways and still doesn't get it.
Mind you she trotted out the 'this is just the beginning for me' line so not terribly sharp.

banana87 · 31/10/2011 11:58

She was in the US for a meeting apparently. And said sore throat started on the plane and continued to get worse. They've compared it to glandular fever. Just to clear that up for some of you Grin

Agree it's all bullshit though!

TeWihara · 31/10/2011 12:31

She's got the kissing disease?! Didn't one of the boybands have that... HmmGrin
