X FACTOR - It's the semi final- and hurrah!- they are singing CHRISTMAS songs!

[Raahh]

because they didn't last year, or the year before. And for once, I think Pugsy has got totally the right song (am biased because it's my favourite, and i think it will suit him). His second song, however, I am less happy with.

Here are the songs-

Andrea Faustini
O Holy Night by Mariah Carey
Wrecking Ball by Miley Cyrus

Lauren Platt
Stay Another Day by East 17/Girls Aloud
Story Of My Life by One Direction

Ben Haenow
Please Come Home For Christmas by The Eagles
Hallelujah by Leonard Cohen

Fleur East
All I Want For Christmas by Mariah Carey
Uptown Funk by Bruno Mars & Mark Ronson

'Stay another day' for lamenting Lozza is inspired- dirgy enough to slow it down to snail's pace, and lots of puffa jackets, 80's fashions for the dancers/ choir.

I'm not sure about Ben's at all- but at least they haven't attributed 'Hallelujah ' to Burke.com. I like the Eagles- but there are so many great Christmas songs to choose from...

Fleur has Mariah- not really her style. And the Mark Ronson track is very new, so the audience might not know it. It is ok, though.

Ohh it's getting exciting. wonder what Louis will be saying, now he doens't have an act, and doesn't care?

See y'all later.

Ben looks as if he's about to burst into tears.

Yes she has BOF, she is doing everything to keep PUgsy in

Get a fuckin grip loser

He needs to stick with a bush. Landing strips have to be punishable by a firing squad.

He's crying. I'm crying. Mel's tit is leaving.
We're none of us winners tonight.

Of course he's the most popular in the house.

Fleur and Pugsey want to shag him and Lauren wants him to be her Daddy when her parents inevitably split up due to her failure to win.

To be fair I have a landing strip that turns into a full bush in the winter months.

I need to find batteries. My clock still says 6.35. It's confusing me.

Honey

If I had shots I'd be doing the Dream/Destiny/Journey thing as a drinking game. They're going into overdrive tonight with the nans, childhood photos and heartstring tugging.

No, it was Dopey Lemurs Chuff Swatch

Me too, SirNoel apart from when I have to see my surgeon!

SirNoel- me too

Ben Crynow

I really feel I've got to know all about you over the course of these threads Noel

Lozza's mum is on the phone to the lawyers monday. Or a Guardian journalist , my split heartache.

Lauren looks like that r2d2 from Star Wars.

I thought he said Kim Mazelle and thought 'oh that's a bit 90's'

I wonder if Sam Bailey has got rid of her Bell's Palsy?

So who do you think will be in the bottom 2? My predictions are Lauren and ( sadly ) Pugsy - unless everyone gets their arse out their bottoms and votes for him...

Right see you tomorrow folks

dillite she is a bit less animated though.

Joffrey, you would need a double liver transplant by the end of boot camp.
