This is the list of what the acts are singing- some may even be considered anthems...

AMERICAN ANTHEMS WEEK

Paije - a mash up of:
I'm A Believer ? The Monkees

Wagner a mash up of:

Cher , back to her old tricks, and a song hardly old enough to be considered an anthem.

And Kim Wilde is British!

Shocked at Dermot putting Cheryl on the spot like that

X Factor is a fix, it has to be. Otherwise how come Simon would keep Katie waissel in??

Usually his justification for keeping someone in is that they are the better singer but even he had to to acknowledge that Treyc was better. And how can he say that the public want to see Katie again next week when they have not bothered to vote for her and were booing as he spoke??
Has he done a deal to keep her until the final 5 with Sony or something?

It is not the first time when they keep controversial acts in for a long time. I think these acts generate x-factor a lot of money through publicity otherwise they would not be there. Every year they choose someone useless. Katie sings better than Wagner but she forgets her words and only because of this she should already leave the show. May be Cowel owes Katie; who knows what, if keeps such a "talent" in.

Can't we all just agree not to watch the shite?

Mouseface · 08/11/2010 14:08

I have to add my 2p worth.

It's all controlled by Syco. What he says goes.

Poor Treyc went home to keep the lovely KatieCandyflossHair in, Wagner/VVVVVVagner stayed Shock because he is such a great singer and will be number 1 this Christmas won't he? Say he will! Hmm

Aiden's quiff drooped, Matt made me squirm in a VERY inappropiate way as I am far too old for him and Rebecca did a grand job.

Cheryl's little dopplganger didn't disappoint did she?

One Direction - yes, it's towards the door! Grin

Paije - made me giggle. Mary? Not sure why she sisn't do so great but I think she's had enough. Did I miss anyone?

Ah, can't wait to see what a wonderful job Syco does with all things Elton next week.

What on earth will Aiden sing? Answers on a postcard?! Grin

I think Cher is earmarked to win by SiCow as she is highly marketable amongst the young who are buy the most music.I made a mistake of slating her the other day and my sons girlfriends(19-22) went mental."shes great"
I love Mat.He made me cry on Sat i felt a right twat but i am 7 months pg so am allowed to cry at what i like!

LublieAva · 08/11/2010 15:05

ok.. just a thought and there's probably nothing in it, but Matt Cardle is actually really good (and sexy) isn't he?

But somehow Simon cowell and Cheryl Cole want Cher to win. and Cher is just awful (and she gurns too!)
So are they keeping Katie Waissel in it just so that no one focuses on Cher (and how she's really not all that) until suddenly she stuns everyone by turning in a good performance with a week or two to go before the end?

deaconsmummy · 08/11/2010 15:13

The reason they are keeping Katie in is because Simon bought out her record contract she had in America so he is getting his moneys worth - a total sham of a show .. Matt to win

i heart matt
