No Hallowe'en theme for X Factor, oh, no. Unless they do it next week Grin

This week, the song choices are:

GIRLS
Bella Penfold – Diamonds Are Forever – Shirley Bassey (w/ Kayne West rap)
Molly Scott – Little Do You Know – Alex and Sierra
Scarlett Lee – Always On My Mind – Elvis
Shan Ako – Sorry Seems To Be The Hardest Word – Elton John

GROUPS
Acacia and Aaliyah – Surprise on the night
LMA Choir – Proud Mary – Tina Turner
Misunderstood – Close to You – Maxi Priest (w/ original rap)
United Vibe – Party in The USA – Miley Cyrus

OVERS
Danny Tetley – Crazy For You – Madonna
Giovanni Spano – Surprise on the night
Janice Robinson – Show Me Love – Robin S

BOYS
Anthony Russell – I Want To Know What Love Is – Foreigner
Brendan Murray – Believe - Cher
Dalton Harris – I Have Nothing – Whitney Houston

Going off that list, I'm not sure they get what a Guilty Pleasure is. Surely it should be something like 'Agadoo', or Renee and Renata.

And it must be the 8th outing for 'Proud Mary' this series.

Bit worried about A and A- I think they are being shafted, and i suspect the 'surprise on the night' will have been because they were asked to do something odd.

And since when did 'Diamonds are Forever' have a rap??

I'm going to need a lot of wine Wine

Haha raahh, I thought of X Factor, too!

I liked it when Bradley said 'they are running towards this?'

I met him on a plane this half term... DH 'bantered' with him. Cringe.

Well, all the 'I love Britain' shit did her no favours.

And neither will 'I love God'.
