X-FACTOR!!- it's predictable, it's ridiculous, IT'S GREAT...

[Raahh]

I love it.

I am not ashamed to say that i will get totally involved- even though i am too old.

Lets count how many times Louis Walsh says 'westloife'
Watch Simon Cowell look bored rigid.
They will put through a 70 year- just for fun
They will tell a 14 year old she is the next Mariah Carey- and then not put her in the finals- FOR BEING TOO YOUNG!
Everyone one will 'own the song, and make it their own'
or- 'that was a really poor song choice- i blame Louis'
A group WILL NOT WIN.
Marvel at the really poor sob stories!
About half a dozen audtionees will sing 'Valerie/you're beautiful'
Watch Cheryl Cole waste away before our very eyes (how skinny is she????)

I need to get out more

Roll on Saturday!!!

old people will indeed vote for daniel and his story...just as they will probably be voting for john on Strictly...

humbug.

I think girlband will go tonight. They wernt upto much which is a pity coz I used to go to school with one of them.... which is kind of shameful to admit seeing how bad they have got!

Heal the world is just such an awful song, i don't think it would have made a difference if they had performed it well, tbh.

I feel sorry for Alex, i think she has the best voice but she's going to be beaten by the likes of diana and laura in search of something different.

I liked Austin tonight, really liked that version of Billie Jean.

I wish Louis would learn to let the height of the applause die down before he gives his crit, him shouting over it is even more annoying than the shitey old cliches he always comes out with.

I loved Diana tonight. Really enjoyed JLS and Austin as well. Girlband were awful, Ruth is dull dull dull and pool guy is "a lovely bloke" but just too cruise ship

And WTF was going on with Danii's lipstick ?!?

Anyone else think Diana looks like the girl who plays Sarah Louise on Corrie (Tina O"Brien ?). The dragged through a hedge backwards blonde version natch

Results now-as predicted, I am a little bit drunk...I reckon Scott or Daniel versus girlband. When it comes to the judges' choice, if Daniel is in the bottom two, he's a gonner...

results...

Girls Aloud are performing.

They look like mermaids...

can some1 tell me why girls aloud got sooo big hair? and danni and even diana?

and Cheryl cannot sing!!!!How embarrassing!

And Cheryl talks about tuning issues...?

OMG! The awful tuning suggests they're singing live - could it be possible??

are the mics dodgy? the solo bits sound awful.

Fucking Hell!

They are SHIT!!!

Nadine looks like she's on something

Cheryls bit was shite!

So, Daniel and Girls Aloud in the final two.

What bloody awful song!!

Sarah has a huge blonde candyfloss on her head; Kimberley and Nadine look like Bratz dolls.

Simon sooooo fancies Cheryl.

They make Girl Band look great- and healthy!!!

i lurrve girls aloud but yes they were awful tonight.

the song is catchy but not great

I wish they would let Nicola go back to her own hair colour- she looks like a ghost.

Yeh I though it was very brave of him to take on such a different version. He is lucky to have simon as a mentor.

Kimberley was the worst I thought...the only bit in tune sounded like the chorus stuff, which was mainly a backing track, I think?

They are all very plastic-y. But must admit, I've warmed to Cheryl since seeing her on this.
