X FACTOR -It's THE FINAL WEEKEND!! -(Sat 7.05pm/Sun 7.30pm)- It's been a journey, we have come so far, but we've made it our own.

[Raahh]

We are promised big stars. Well, some 'big' stars. There is a new boyband I've never heard of, put together by Simon in US called Pretty Much . Must be cheap.

Here are the songs they are performing tonight- when presumably one will leave

Grace Davies
Live and Let Die - Wings
Roots - Grace Davies

Rak-Su
Dimelo - Rak-Su
Mamacita - Rak-Su

Kevin Davy White
Whole Lotta Love - Lez Zeppelin
Fastlove, Pt 1 - George Michael

Also due to perform over the weekend are P!nk, Sam Smith, Little Mix, Becky Hill (the only Voice contestant to ever have a career)and Louis Tomlinson.

Simon must get cut rates if old X Factorites perform.

Disappointed by lack of Stormzy.

I'm not sure who is doing a duet with who though. Or if that will be tomorrow. Or if Nicole will be half-cut on stage singing 'it should have been me' during Sam's set.

I am feeling a bit better this week- though lingering headaches remain. I haven't had a drink for a fortnight, and can't really face the final sober, so might get some mulled and mince pies to tide me over.

I have so much to do. Two wasted weekends have left me with loads of stuff I need to sort. Like costumes for nativity plays. But I'm getting out of taking dd1 to her football match too bloody cold and dh is the manager, after all..

So, see y'all later

Bloody ads! Anyway, had an exciting week, me and DP got an air fryer and it's bloody brilliant, having home made buttermilk fried chicken and sweet potato fries tonight, can't wait! It's the best bit of kit for the kitchen I've had for ages 😀

We have started playing the guess the ad game, kids get very competitive about it! We need something to prop up the will to live with the 6 million ad breaks.

i have used my free app votes for Kevin.

I am dubious about the free app votes. I bet they don't really count - after all they need the money from phone in votes, and texts, surely?

I voted every week for J and J- and where did it get me

I now have to go and put DS to bed while OH preps dinner. The way it's going all I'll miss is a load of fluff and an ad break.

My is going down rather quickly.

I don't know if I can hear Grace sing anymore.

Nicole has been on the sch-erbet already. She can't speak

I would take him in. Fnarr fnarr

Me and DH were watching tele earlier and the advert for Sheridan Smith’s CD came on. DH said ‘oh, has she won the X Factor?’ 😂

Going first is never good.

I like Kev's mum.

Maybe I'll just watch lovely Kevin before the little one goes to bed

Fairy

Raahh I don't reckon they count either

What fresh hell is Scherzslinger wearing?!!

So we could have both a black, foreign XFactor winner and a black, foreign member of the royal family in the space of a week, bet the Daily Fail readers will be frothing at the bit!

Was wondering about Kevin being called Kevin. Do you think to his French mum it sounded exotic (like people here calling their children Nicole)??

Kevin is lurrvvely

Raahh,

I am with you. I think the free app votes are a bit of a con. The cost is horrendous over the phone though.

Kevin Klaxon - he is just soo nice.

Little Mix - I just cannot get my head around that crew. So much make up and always scantily clad. Don't their mothers tell them that decent girls wear trousers over their knickers?

Ooh la la!

Always

It's the intro to TOTP! 😀

Come on Kevin!!

Oh god Always I can imagine the headlines. The comments section will be horrendous.

Nicole reminds me of a fancy lampshade in that dress

Wow. That performance was pure sex!!! Go Kevin!!

I need crisps and dip.... I'll be back...

Always oh my- yes.

We definitely need Kevin to win. Not least because he can actually sing.
