X FACTOR- It's Semi Final week! Sadly, the theme is not 'Lionel Ritchie' :-(

[Raahh]

It's 'Songs that will get me to the final' or 'Just sing any old shit, there are two weeks left, and Simon wants to be on a yacht somewhere.'

Here is what they will be performing-

Ché Chesterman
Would I Lie To You? - Charles & Eddie
Love Is A Losing Game - Amy Winehouse

Lauren Murray
Runnin' (Lose It All) - Naughty Boy Ft. Beyoncé & Arrow Benjamin
Best Of My Love - Emotions (Ella Eyre version)

Louisa Johnson
The Power Of Love - Frankie Goes To Hollywood (Gabrielle Aplin version)
It's A Man's Man's Man's World - James Brown (Christina Aguilera version)

Reggie 'N' Bollie
Locked Away - R City Ft. Adam Levine
I Gotta Feeling / I Like To Move It - Black Eyed Peas / Reel 2 Real

Just when you thought SpagBollie couldn't get worse- they do. 'I like to Move it'- this reminds me of King Julian in 'Madagascar' Or Zig and Zag. (Who were one of Simon's first big 'acts' dontcha know.). I suppose there aren't many lyrics to actually sing.

I think Lauren is in danger because- Louisa is being pushed as the winner, and getting rid of Spag Bollie would probably cause Princess Chezza to throw a hissy fit. At least she's moved on from Mariah and Whitney... to Beyonce.

Aeroflot will be wanting to make up for not knowing the words to 'Hello'- but Charles and Eddie??! The only thing that will make up for this, is if he wears a long black Charles (or was it Eddie? ) wig.

I have to go to my dds' Christmas fayre at school. Humbug.
I am hoping to win enough alcohol to make tonight bearable

See y'all later.

DD2 has spilt water on my laptop, I am using an old one with no space bar so will probably end up with lots of words running into each other. Amd it will be slow.

Sia is so bloody pretentious.

Half hearted watching tonight while I wait for homeland

Slack looks like she has been at the blue smarties.

Oh thank heavens you're here, I thought I was going to have to actually watch the whole thing without the thread.

Chezza looks like a banana.

Slack looks like she has been at the blue smarties.

Chezzas got dirt on the bottom of that frock, must have walked through a puddle

Just eating dinner, will be along to share in the madness shortly

Love the dress!? What is the snake on her shoulder?

Don't people find exotic animals in bananas sometimes?

thered the thought of watching without the thread doesn't bear thinking about.

Blimey, the recap shows how shouty Gobby is.

Ello everyone!

Chezza has a creeping alien thing on her shoulder, there's fashion and there's fashion and that is just plain weird

For a semi final last night's performances were not terribly polished.

How are you today collie?

thered usually spiders.

Louisa sing the 'of looooove' bit sounded very flat. I think the re-cap is a truer version of the performance we see on the night.

Has Louisa skinned an orange plow?

Hey everyone.

Why are we doing an acoustic version of Happy?

A cape! Lauren is wearing the cape tonight.
That wardrobe person must be so happy.
And it's red a la Supergirl.

Then maybe that's a massive poisonous spider on Chezzas shoulder Raahh?

Gobby gets to wear the Monica cape. Reg and Bollie look like they are auditioning as cbeebies presenters.

It will starve if it tries to eat Chezza, thered.

theredlion I ended up in hospital after sudden vomiting and fever. But appendicitis was ruled out after some poking and proding. Feeling better today just tired. Something's up with my tum/intestine but will have further tests this week. Nothing serious though! Just lots of inflammation.

I caught myself singing "I like to move it, move it" a few times today. feck sake!

Just realised I have watched the whole series of this shore and next week I'm going to miss the final! Bloody work Xmas shindig

I know why I dislike Slack. It's the way she follows Olly around the stage. It is creepy. Did Dermoot do the wandering about thing, or did he just stand still.

That's true Raahh I was hoping for an injection of excitement from the spider.
