X FACTOR - Saturday ,it's the groups and the boys, Sunday ,it's the Girls and Overs. The theme is ' Viva Latino'.

[Raahh]

And the song list reads like a 'Now that's what I call 2017' cd. Could be good for Jack and Joel- 'Havana' is very popular with the yoofs right now. I'm not that keen- it's always on the radio. My youngest loves it. But I love J and J.

But Despacito ? Really ??

'Smooth' is one of my favourite songs ,ever. Love a bit of Santana.

The X Factor 2017 continues this Saturday at 8:20PM and Sunday night at 7:05PM on ITV.

Simon is supposed to be back.

Shockingly- Grace is NOT singing a cover

TWO Enrique songs! And apparently Sobby is bring very brave singing the J-Lo song. .

Is get lucky 'latin' ?
It still means Grace and Rat Soup could be the respective nights winners though, and compete for the 'big prize'.

I might have to go out. Either tonight or tomorrow- for a firework display. At least before, missing the the results show on a Sunday wasn't too big a deal. It was bit pants anyway.

Anyway, lots to do today, and I need nibbles and

See y'all later.

Love the wanton freedom of a new username hahaha....

Gone bonkers!

As you were...

Anyone else feel like X Factor is just an addictive drug now, you know its wrong but you can't give it up!

This new format is rubbish, it will just be the Rak-su/Grace show every week unless they mix up which categories sing against each other. And the judges just feel completely redundant and pointless now. I used to dislike the whole deadlock thing but I'm sure that could have been more easily avoided without this ridiculous new system.

I think the halcyon days were around the Rebecca Ferguson/Diana Vickers/Ruth Lorenzo time. Don't think they were all the same year but that was the era I remember fondly!

Upsy it is addictive. . Last year was possibly the worst ever (til now) but I've still come back.
Of course, the thread helps .

The format does not work. It's not an even playing field splitting it in two, and it seems that overall the GBP are a flock of sheep . There will nothing to split Grace and Rat soup until the end.(Though I don't rate either). It will make for a boring final. Whoever makes it in 3rd place will be there to make up the numbers only.

I wonder if this new format is so that the judges have more chance of keeping their acts in longer. This way two different judges lose an act each week. I'm overthinking this! But it is rubbish, the new format...

Hello all

I was out getting pissed at a wedding reception last night so have whizzed through last night's that OH recorded for me.

Glad Jack & Joel got through, but not their best performance imo. Sean & Conor - lovely boys & all that but living proof that pre-teen girls give no shits about vocal talent if someone has a cute face. Lloyd - living proof that all the nans in Wales watch X Factor.

Trying to get enthused for more Latin music is not an easy task.

Thing with Sean and Connor is the they don't even have a cute face. Unless teenage girls have really shit taste. Which they do so never mind. What do I know, I am bloody ancient being 30. Practically geriatric. Or maybe it's the lego hair?

Good evening everyone!

Evening Jane

Well, voice over man- personally I would send most of them home. Sobby would be top of my list though.

Would be easier to be enthused if there was actual Latin music Jane

dillite they are the same age as my ds, and I can't even summon up maternal feelings. And I'm nearly 46. They don't have the 'cute' Wandie' factor. And they can't sing.

It's baffling

Evening all, just watched bits of last nights but got the general gist that it was basically shite! Not holding out much hope for tonight!

Jane knows I'm more enthused by Latin tennis players anyway

I know raahh! At least some of the Wandies were cute.

So this week she has skinned the big bird.

My tweenager thinks the Lego haired boys are ugly & aparently her friends agree

She has skinned Big Bird!

This might as well be one of hers since it is totally and utterly unfamiliar to me.

Beat me to it dilite I was going to post a picture of Big Bird

X Post.

Hi Raahh. True dillite (my auto correct hates your name!).I'll only be here until 8 as I have to go and mind DF in a wifi free zone.

Why does Big Bird come to mind?

nancy your teenager must have eyes

Oh cross post as well!

Grace makes every song sound the same. I saw that top in Matalan today im sure of it.

The stylists are upping their game, they’ve been letting us down so far, hardly any pleather
