X FACTOR- and it's DIVAs week- no prizes if you guessed Whitney or Mariah amongst the song choices...It starts at 8pm!

[Raahh]

...but I'm surprised and delighted by the lack of J-Hud.

and 'Ice Ice Baby'? Even Jedward is preferable to Honey fucking G now.
Elfish doing 'Oh So quiet' will get shouty and desperate, and she might even wear a Bjork-ish swan costume. I hope she does.

Here are the choices-

The Boys
Matt Terry
Mariah Carey - I’ll Be There

Ryan Lawrie
Adele - Rolling in The Deep

The Girls
Emily Middlemas
Whitney Houston - How Will I Know

Sam Lavery
Michael Jackson - Earth Song

Gifty Louise
Sam Smith - Lay Me Down

The Overs
Honey G
Vanilla Ice / Queen - Ice, Ice Baby/Under Pressure

Relley C
Aretha Franklin - Natural Woman

Saara Aalto
Bjork - Oh So Quiet

The Groups
5 After Midnight
Amy Winehouse - Valerie

Four of Diamonds
Lady Marmalade/Bang Bang - May, Pink / Lil' Kim, Jessie J, Arianna Grande.

The same songs are appearing series upon series, with boring regularity now. I HATE 'Earth Song' Poor Made Under Sam.

I wonder if Emily will turn 'how will I know' into a ballad? of all Whitney's big Diva songs, it's not one I'd instantly go for.

I have chocolate fingers and decaf coffee. I have been clearing out dd1's room in readiness for a new bed. It is 'a job I wish I had never started'.

See y'all later!

Rj, i do. You need alcohol for this gig.

Hate this song.

She's the best again imo. I do love this song though so I may be biased.

WTAF is that vocal coach guy wearing? he looks like a right knob

Was your effort appreciated Noisy?

This girl is the only one I can tolerate. I think. (just shrieked). I love this song and will never forgive her if she slaughters it.

Noisy, well done girl! Recipe books are a winner. What did you cook?

Birming-ham Louis?

Louis got her name wrong.

dillite it was indeed. A little Rick Stein number never goes amiss.

80s a risotto a la something or other from Rick Stein's Venice to Istanbul book.

I love risotto noisy is there any left over?

When you think of the standard from a few years ago, Relley really isn't that good.

Rick, am impressed! ( went to his restaurant in Padstow once upon a time class)
Oh no, Whitters!

Uh oh, I smell a JL version a-coming.

It's going to be a funeral dirge of a poppy Whitney number, isn't it? Why? Simon? Why?!

I love risotto!

What are we expecting, John Lewis version of Whitney? Boring boring boring

So is she saying that they are constantly shagging all the time in case if one of them gets canned?

red there is, though it might be a bit cold now

So these two were going out and both of them happened to be picked for X factor? What are the chances?!

Em and Ryan.. Bless.
They are cute.

Was it the ossombucco (however you spell that) one? If so I am very jealous.

Yep, JL does Whitney. Oh dear.

'Different' is never a good word on X Factor.

I've never forgiven them for what they did to Ella Henderson and that god awful verson of 'You're the one that i want' . It wasn't even Hallowe'en.

God what a shock a Whitney song done in the style of boring, how did Simon come up with this, he's a genius
