X FACTOR- This week's tenuous theme is 'Guilty Pleasures' - so, anything goes! *** Sat 8.35/Sun 8pm**

[Raahh]

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

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

Brenda can sing Haunted by The Pogues/Sinead O'Connor

dillite I'm always scared to meet people. I'm sure you are all lovely. But I'm a scary middle aged short woman.

Destiny maybe his balls will drop one day, and then he will come back and sing 'Old Man River'.

Brendon needs to be in a boyband. Full stop.

And Ayda's make up makes her look like she is a lama. I cannot look at those lips when she is talking.

Thanks y'all, might not be around next weekend but I'll be with you in spirit(s) !

Raahh think lots of us on here are middle aged!

Destiny I think our musical frames of reference do kind of date us all

raahh I think the fact that we have been here every Saturday night for years alone tells us that we are all middle-aged with nothing much happening in our lives (weekend evening clubbing activity wise)

dillite you have a very good point there

Hey gang, look what I found! It's a video of Dalton singing at a concert in Jamaica in 2015. Brilliant voice and he looks way more confident and energetic here. Interesting...

Destiny that is so much better than some of the stuff he's done on X Factor.

I know! And on X Factor he comes across as quite nervous and unconfident and a bit depressed IMO whereas there he’s in his element! Maybe he feels this is his last chance?

He might do, which is daft really, since he's not exactly old!!

Looks like Nile Rodgers will be replacing Robbie whilst he's away! A very good choice, I think! 

Ooh Nile Rodgers, how brilliant! 😀

( Claim to fame, the lovely Nile nice replied to a tweet I sent him! )

Where's Robbie off to? Great for his lot to get Nile!

Can we keep Nile and bin Robbie?
I bet his just so laid back and he will
Like the two girls.
