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!!!

Can't believe you didn't stop to set the video cyteen! Best of luck!

Anyone know how many more weeks we have of this stage?

Is anyone else a little that Sheryl Cole and Danni M can actually recognise talent, after all they don't have much between them. I bet they brick it when its borderline and their first call.

omg, am just watching Ariel....

she's not a number- she's a prat....

she's an arrogant cow...she is scary... and to mr , Ariel is a little mermaid....

(loved the fact the music in the background was from Dracula!)

to me..

so what do we think they will trot out tonight? Not sure they will find anyone as potty as Ariel...

Pass the tissues.. sniff

he was a good singer!!

i cried too, mind you a can cry at anything today.

oh blimey, last week was relatively sob free- haven't had chance to watch this yet...

I will be glad when the bootcamp starts

I went through lots of tissues at the end.....how very very sad

Oh dear god, I'm as cold as they come but that made me blub!

I missed the beginning of that guy just caught Cheryl bawling, why?

even i had a tear in my eye.

bless him.

FiveGoMad - his wife died shortly after having their dc3 but she had always wanted him to try out for the X factor so he did and got through

and more to the point, there are times when I am positively EMBARRASSED to be from Glasgow, those awful sisters made me have one of those moments!

his wife dies last year after giving birth to their baby

he had the baby with him she is now 11 months old

then the song he sang was just like he was singing to his wife

very sad

Thank you

werent those sister the ugliest scariest sister you have ever seen lol lol lol

awful just awful with their matching black vest tops, teeth, rings, more with the teeth

I would have ahd to have said yea to them just in case they beat me up lol lol

We blubbed too. The guy with the baby who had lost his wife. I tried so hard not too. DD was tutting when she first saw tmy tears, then started herself.

Sky+ it and just watched it.

I hope he wins...sod everyone else. He deserves it.

God, I'm welling up again now just thinking about it.....

Now steady on girls, it made me cry a bit too but he wasn't such a great singer by any means.

He could sing a bit. Rather watch him than Ray (whatever name) and he was 2nd one year. He should win. Imagine if the sob story came out and they all said no! Just knew he would get through or they couldn't have shown it.
