Ignoring this as I will catch it tomorrow.

I couldn't get back on last night as dh took the laptop to work.

I think last nights show just proved even more to me that its a set up.
All the covering their backs with "you must call and vote" and putting it back on the publics toes so to speak.
And then the two who people have been screaming to be in the bottom two miraculously are in the bottom two! As if by magic

Daniel did not have the worst vocals last night. I don't think for a minute he would have won the X Factor but at least he hits his notes every week!
I think Rachel scares the crap out of them tbh and they're too scared to get rid of her. She is quite obviously shit and cannot sing. And as for her little gang shouting and being rude in the crowd!

To me, JLS, Eoghan and Rachel were the worst performers last night.

Blondeshavemorefun · 16/11/2008 10:40

she is the one singing the most powerful vocals on the x factor hero song

anniebear · 16/11/2008 10:42

wish Rachel had gone!

daftpunk · 16/11/2008 13:45

me too..she get's worse every week..

compo · 16/11/2008 13:51

I'm glad the public saved Ruth
I want Alexandra to win, she is consistently the best

daftpunk · 16/11/2008 13:59

yes, she is..but she's no leona....i think this year has been awful, (wont be watching it anymore) ....i hope jls win it though....don't think they're much good but they live near me.

MarsLady · 16/11/2008 14:04

I know that Daniel had to go but I wanted him to stay because of Louis!

clam · 16/11/2008 14:37

So how come the judges can now mention the fact that Rachel was out of tune last week, when they couldn't or wouldn't at the time?

Why is she still in it?

And read an interview with Danii and she was asked about Simon Cowell and girlfriends. Her answer: hysterical laughter. Does she know something we don't? Like why he paid out 6 million (?) to ex when they split.

anniebear · 16/11/2008 15:00

I want Alex to won now

wasnt Leona fantastic last night

MadameCastafiore · 16/11/2008 15:07

Simon Cowell is gay you know!

Think Rachel is vile and evil - she even said she was going to sing the song by Mary J Blige (Dermot said what the one by U2!)- her musical knowledge extends to MJB and no where else it seems which is sad when she has about as much talent in her whole body as MJB has in her crusty hard heel skin!

Hated Daniel but I would have prefered to hear his song again from the sing off than Rachels!

mrsmaidamess · 16/11/2008 15:18

I can't stand rachel either. She's hard, one dimensional and if it isn't by MJB or la Winehouse, forget it.

Def. a one trick pony, with the ego of Red Rum

NosfeRaahhTu · 16/11/2008 15:36

it will be interesting to see which MJB song Rachel sings in next weeks sing off!!lol!

clam · 16/11/2008 16:00

Is he really, madamecastafiore?

NosfeRaahhTu · 16/11/2008 18:29

i've been thinking about this, and the whole Rachel factor thing. Both she and Daniel are very indicative of what i would call 'Karaoke' singers, so the trail to the x-factor may have gone a bit like this...

*Rachel (using name purely as example, lol) goes to her local boozer every friday night for Karaoke. She has a limited repetoire- one of her 'mates' says-

'you know, our Rachel, you are well good at that Amy Winehouse song that you sing EVERY WEEK. You should go on X-factor.'

So *Rachel does. Sadly, she is unable to sing competently anything other than the 3 songs she has sung for the past 8 years in the pub. And even those aren't that good.

I wonder, in all seriousness, how many applicants could say that their story was identical to this?

thenewme · 17/11/2008 18:13

I would say not, clam.

I cannot stand Rachel.

Judges, she is consistently in the bottom 2. Get the message!

Tippychick · 17/11/2008 19:24

noooo not gay. Bet he has ishoooooos tho in the bedroom department, he looks kinky.

Spot on Rah, or their mum has told them they're great.To a man they all think they are much better than they are.

anniebear · 17/11/2008 19:35

why do they say they cant understand why rachel is in the bootm 2

why is no one on there brave enough to say Obviously the public have not taken to her

(coz shes horrible!!)

NosfeRaahhTu · 17/11/2008 20:23

All the heckling Simon was getting from Rachel's 'camp' does make you wonder whether they are worried about recriminations if they get rid of her.

I am all for giving people second chances in life, she wants to prove she is better than her past suggests. I'm not sure national telly is the place to achieve it, really. She does have a strong voice, but she can't win. And the longer they string her along thinking she is doing o.k, the worse the fall will be for her when it comes. The public have been putting her in the bottom 2 for a reason- and not necessarily because they want the ordeal pleasure of hearing her sing again!!

smartiejake · 22/11/2008 15:23

Anyone know what they are all singing this week. I believe it's "Take That" week.

I heard there was a punch up between Dannii and Lois as they both wanted their acts to do Rule the world.
