X-FACTOR- Yes, it IS Friday- but tonight at 9pm - it's the start of BOOTCAMP.

[Raahh]

It doesn't feel like a week since X Factor was last on, does it? ...probably because it isn't.

So, though we haven't recovered from Sunday- here is the first BOOTCAMP!

Tonight, Cheryl is choosing her final act- she has the girl's category. And no, you're right, we haven't been told that yet. It's like a whole section of the process has been mysteriously ditched.

Expect musical chairs, crying, and much wailing about making decisions.

Here's the song list

LOLA SAUNDERS
Cece Peniston – Finally

CHLOE JASMINE
Backstreet Boys – I Want it That Way

SHANAY HOLMES
Emeli Sande – Read All About It

STEPHANIE NALA
Chris Isaak – Wicked Game

ORLA KEOGH
S.O.S. Band – Just Be Good to Me

MONICA MICHAEL
Olly Murs – Troublemaker

KAYLEIGH MANNERS
The Lumineers – Ho Hey

TEN SENAH
Beyonce – Love on Top

EMILY MIDDLEMAS
Ellie Goulding- Anything Could Happen

CHLOE O’GORMAN
Whitney Houston – I didn’t know my own strength

LAUREN PLATT
Michael Jackson – Man in the Mirror

KERRIANNE COVELL
Sara Bareilles – Gravity

Sadly, Chezza has avoided being Raign's mentor. Which would have been fun.

See y'all tonight.

9pm

Bjork full stop annoys me. So does Kate bush. This is not relevant I admit but I've logged on to the actual site for the first time since joining, and I want to make the most of a REAL KEYBOARD

browneyed I missed that - U16's can't be swapped?? Surely if they're deemed old enough to take part which they aren't they're old enough to take rejection?

Ah, now I love a bit of Kate.

What's with the giant coffins in the waiting room? Is that where they keep the rejects?

My husband does too. He's always trying to find 'new' Kate Bush songs to convert me. It never works.

Alleluia, that fake creature is gone. Mesmerising??

What about when it comes to the live shows. Will we be allowed to reject the wee ones?

Noisy brain yup before Emily performed, we saw two men crouching down in front of Cheryl saying that if she chooses anyone under 16 they cannot be swapped out!

This is bad.

Love this song, not the rendition

Cheryl needs to dump CodGirl.

They're far too young for this malarkey. Shouldn't they be in the park being fingered by a spotty teen?

Gosh. Think I will pledge allegiances to The Voice this year! This X Factor is rubbish and I don't think any of them are really very good...

I don't remember this one?

This is shit. No?

Shouty.

Ooh, keychangetastic...

I like the fact she's all tomboyish.

I don't get the issue? Reject kids is easy. That's what Mnet is for, innit?

Chezza should just whip out her Mobile and ignore her if she wants rid.

Wait, Raign is gone? How could they! Cheryl HAD TO be her mentor. They missed a ratings gold there.

More smacked arse faces.

dillite Raign will be in the overs.

Squoosh, they save that for the judges' houses when One Direction show up for a bit of inspiration.

She wasn't good!

Squoosh, yes, they definitely should*
