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!!!

This is what disappoints me about Xfactor- piss taking of people

expatinscotland · 20/09/2008 20:23

c'mon, TE, this dude is asking for people to take the piss.

Lizzylou · 20/09/2008 20:24

I know, I have my hands over my eyes

cyteen · 20/09/2008 20:24

They never show much of the people who are actually good...presumably it cuts too much into the 'laugh at the nutter' time Shame really.

Beetroot · 20/09/2008 20:24

Black or white

tiredemma · 20/09/2008 20:24

Raahh · 20/09/2008 20:24

Oh I cried so much at the girl who had lost her Mum at 7

Raahh · 26/09/2008 20:49

Bootcamp starts Saturday!

Hope they don't pull any stunts like forming groups out of the rejects, this time.

Strictly, X-factor, vodka...Perfect!

I have a vat of wine on hand and DP to organise dinner

noddyholder · 27/09/2008 20:24

bloody hell cheryl tweedy is gorgeous i need a paper bag

meglet · 27/09/2008 20:52

I hope she has the sense to not mess her face up with surgery like Danni.

I think it's between the solo girls this year, there's about 4 fab ones. Haven't noticed many other people standing out. The man whos' wife died is good too, he's got a bit of star quality.

foxinsocks · 27/09/2008 21:11

cor that was a bit cruel

Carmenere · 27/09/2008 21:12

That Racheal (ex junkie) has the MOST amazing voice, she is gifted.

lottiejenkins · 27/09/2008 21:17

Help......... Did the gorgeous guy whose wife died last year get through??? i do hope so he was lovely!

reikimarie · 28/09/2008 15:23

I think he did but I don't think he'll win, there is LOTS of talent this year it is brilliant!

smartiejakethepeg · 28/09/2008 16:19

Sorry I just don't get why everyone fawns over that girl Rachael(ex drug addict) I thought she sounded dreadful.

Oblomov · 28/09/2008 16:26

Could someone answer a q for me.
There was a girl in the heats. She sang really beautifully. Apparently she is very poor. And they asked her if she had had any training . and she said no. But she had bought a Voice training CD thing. I think she may have been black. But I can't remember.

Can someone tell me which girl she is.
She was very young. And very beautiful. I can only ASSUME that she got through boot camp ?
