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!!!

Bless.
Explains the overdose of the Botox I guess.

lol chequers i rofl when she said that.

Did you also see her do the "cool" shimmy wiggle victory dance with watserface when she got through? Cringe, like dad dancing!

Someone needs to remember to shift the list up to the beginning of next week's show on Sat; everyone make sure they have beverage of choice ready!

To sum up from last night:

Enjoyed listening to: Austin; Ruth

Could be in the same room while they were singing: Diana; Laura; Eoghan

Really thought should not be in the show: Scott; Daniel (and Girlband, obv - but then they've gone anyway - hurrah!)

like that summary Peaches! Funny.
Girlband just look like a group of scally girls out on the piss! And sang like one. Ouch, my poor ears. I'm sticking with Strictly!

boxfresh - I too thought it sounded like she wanted to be 'down with the kids' with that out-of-character phrase.

I love JLS and Diana as I can imagine wanting to buy an album from them. Laura is good but a bit too like amy winehouse.

Please can daniel go next week, he's just a pub singer.

anyone watching the re-run just incase they missed anything last night

I'd like to hear Rachel sing a Randy crawford track, like streetlife, one day I'll fly away or You might need somebody. Dannii Minogue is a muppet, I really cannot stand her. She's like the female equivalent of Jonathon Wilkes. I wonder how she has remained famous, and what makes her a good judge of music. It's a mystery.

I really like Laura and think we could use someone else with a great voice and style like Amy Winehouse, whose voice I love, but not actually Amy Winehouse.

Can anyone tell me what Dannii Minogue is famous for, other than being Kylie's sister?

lazymum, she was in Home and Away for a while I think, and then she got into music. Then she just hung around trying to be like Kylie and making a tit of herself.

Diana AKA Poundshop Duffy must go.

Give the girl some shoes and a hairbrush!!.

just heard that poor leon was beaten in the charts by Peter Kay- a.k.a Geraldine.

lol @ poundshop duffy..so true

go geraldine!

lol at "fluffy wuffy" Glad Girlband are out.

Those girlbands were dreadful weren't they? I don't think any of them have sang really well yet. I love that new Girls Aloud song. I really am developing a bit of a crush on Cheryl, and me, a married woman and all!

soory I haven't read the whole thread but did you all notice that a digit was missing from Ruth's number last night? Obviously major conspiracy?????

no! what? the number was wrong?

ohhh

Daniel reminds me of a poor Perry Como.

rofl, unknown, he needs a woolly pully and a rocking chair...

Next week is Big Band week, which in previous years has thrown up some bizarre performances. Last year Same Difference did Reach by S Club 7

Do you think Simon will invite Geraldine onto one of the live shows? that would be funny...

I can't even remember who Same Difference were! A bit like Two Up Two Down I should imagine.

My favourite ever audition was that bloke who sang Barbie Girl, and one other song, doh, what was it again?

good lord, they have fans?!

Girls allowed were just terrible! How on earth Cheryl has the gaul to critisise other singers for their pitch problems is beyond me!

Girl band awful, awful, awful- have never heard them sing anything in tune right from the beginning of the audition process. Really glad to see them go.

Same Difference have a website???????

I like Diana - she's the only one with any individuality. She has a beautiful voice. As for the rest of them it's a case of 'seen it all before'.

SD do indeed have a website and there are a number of people on here who have even admitted they LIKE them
