986 replies

Obviously, Verucca -if all the fix stuff is to go by (although Kelly is supposed to be hoping she doesn't win, as it will make her look stoopid for chucking her off in the first place)Xmas Grin

I want Marcus to win. Lidl Muffins at a push (but I don't think singing with Tulisa will help them!)Xmas Grin

It's going to be crap, without 'proper' guests, isn't it? And dragging it out over 2 nights...

So here we are, after all these months part one of the X Factor final!Xmas Grin

I like Little Mix, and I don't care what you all say about their Track & Field lookilikeiness!

Marcus is still singing his way onto Empress of the Seas, and Amelia hopefully heading for pretentious wellies and an 'ironic' turn at the Isle of Wight festival and subsequent oblivion.

I think there are guest acts, but they aren't duetting with the contestants- Coldplay would only agree to appear, not duet.

One of Chris Martin's better decisions involving women.

SuePurblybiltbyElves · 10/12/2011 17:43

I like the way they gave Verruca her comeback song, did she actually do any other performances before she was chucked out?

exactly, Sue- they won't have much to choose from- unless they are counting judges' houses, and bootcampConfused

And from the spoiler- I am not sure if 'ain't no other man' is her winners song, or she is singing 4 songsConfused again.

Still, not long now, and all will be revealed[stupidly excited emoticon]

Not sure what i am going to do next weekend- may have to start an X Factor thread anyway!Xmas Grin

Just watched again. I do hope that they beat SC to Xmas no 1.

Me, too, MmeLindor (though I am not really a fan of the song tbh).

I am hoping this is the year that the Winners single doesn't even make the top tenXmas Grin

I'm getting good to go - have cava and cashew nuts.

If Amelia wins I will have a tantrum, and it will be a good, big, snotty one.

And - Christmas is under control. Have shopped, have wrapped, have faffed. We're getting there. Yes!

BroomBuBuBum · 10/12/2011 18:03

This is the first final since it started that I'm not actually that fussed about watching. Being Simon and Cheryl back.

Little mix to win!

MmeLindor. · 10/12/2011 18:04

lol at MissHonkover

Just watched that US X Factor wee lass. Isn't it sad that she said, "Mummy, promise me it will be ok". Was her mum very pushy then?

I don't think they should have under 16yo in these kind of shows. The may talk the talk, but it is too much for fragile egos.

MmeLindor. · 10/12/2011 18:05

Can I just state that I hate every single one of you who has Xmas presents bought and wrapped.

Have DD's iPod and that is IT. Nothing else.

Damn. Going to have to do some shopping sometime soon.

chipstick10 · 10/12/2011 18:06

If theres a god Marcus the cruise ship singer will be out first..........well a girl can dream cant she!!!!!!!!

SuePurblybiltbyElves · 10/12/2011 18:06

I am watching the auditions Grin. In my defence I am illing and there is nuffin on. I also have cava and cashews, spooky Grin.

LadyBeagleBaublesAndBells · 10/12/2011 18:27

I was so cross that Mischa B was voted out last week. I want Marcus or Littlemix to win now.
I can't work out if it's a fix or not.
I just remember the good old days, like when Will Young beat Gareth in Pop Idol.
It was a perfect TV moment, now it's so manipulated.

SuePurblybiltbyElves · 10/12/2011 18:29

I love Will Young. I may stalk him, when I get a mo'.

Jellykat · 10/12/2011 18:30

Missed last weeks thread, bloody RL!

Marcus had some bad press this week, apparently he was arrogant behind the scenes on the Chris Moyles show Xmas Hmm not sure about him now..

I'd like Amelia to win Xmas Grin

God, i remember voting for Will Young, agree it was a classic when he won, bless him

craftyknickers · 10/12/2011 18:37

I love Will Young! Ergh Gareth Gates makes me cringe!

I'm now all shopped out so plonked myself on the sofa chocolate in one hand and iPad in the other!

when i heard him on Chris moyles, he had a bad throat, apparently, and hardly spoke. Wonder why he was arrogant off air?

Cowell was soooo convinced Gareth was going to win- the entire series was focussed on him, really. It was brillianr when Will won. He is definitely the best winner of all of the popfactoridolrivals things. I know Leona has been successful, but she isn't my cup of tea. Too warbly.

SuePurblybiltbyElves · 10/12/2011 18:43

I would be arrogant if I met Chris Moyles. Hard not to feel superior, really. The man is a malevolent potato based turd-monkey.

Hassledge · 10/12/2011 18:45

Agree - and not just about the cava/cashews combo. If I met Moyles I would be a right caah. I'd be as arrogant as they come.

Jellykat · 10/12/2011 18:45

Well Aled Jones was saying that some guests have a cuppa etc before they go on air, and are rude and just hold out their arm to take the cup - without making eye contact or saying thanks.. and Marcus was one of them.. Ooer! Aled didn't like him at all, and Aleds' a sweetie i reckon

SuePurblybiltbyElves · 10/12/2011 18:48

More like Aled put the moves on and was turned down Grin

Jellykat · 10/12/2011 18:50

Xmas Grin at malevolent potato based turd-monkey, i'll remember that one!

Hahahaaaa maybe!

craftyknickers · 10/12/2011 18:52
