X-Factor:Come on over- it's the first live show. We've got vodka, nibbles and Robbie Williams!!

[Raahh]

Am really looking forward to this tonight. Am trying to find out what the acts will be singing, not sure what this weeks
theme is!

I have FINALLY figured out that Stacey looks like an old acquaintance of mine. Now how do I put a pic of her up...

On the question of "boys" singing "girls'" songs and so on, does anyone really have a problem with this? Surely it's the mark of a great song that it can be done by any voice and instrument.

(Although Hue & Cry should be shot for what they did to "The Man With The Child In His Eyes".)

email sent TO ITV !!!

SL. A massive spider just ran across my laptop. I'm not scared of them but it was huge and was wearing clogs and it make me jump and spill my wine. Can you send Simon to kill it?

I think Danni was a twat tonight, poor Danyl watching Xtrafactor on delay as Ds2 woke up.

are people really emailing and complaining

UQD at the spit roasting and hand-shandies and the "thank you Mrs Cole"

You do owe me a replacement glass of wine though.

I have found this interesting snipped from the NOW from late August.....

did he out himself already?

agree with you duelingfango..

i don't think she meant to be offensive...

simon had accused louis of picking the twins just because they were Irish..

if louis was black, and the twins were black....would he have said the same thing..?

OK the PR offensive has started. Louis is saying that Danyl was mean to Kandy Rain and made them cry...

Of course people are e-mailing and complaining, as they absolutely rightly should smoking. Sexuality is an extremely private thing and has absolutely nothing to do with singing, song choices, or X Factor.

Unless the contestant chooses to make a statement or comment about his/her own sexuality, no one else in connection with the channel or show should have any comments about it.

I don't think that link works, will try again

Sycs your link doesnt work.

Agree ESS. Have emailed.

Why am I not surprised by DP's comments?

I love that "your gonna love me" song but the best version I heard was that lady that got down to final 6 in over 25s group - the one whos father had died. She "nailed" it!

I love the "and you and you" part and Danyl didn't do that. His ending was fab tho.

Tried to get on the ITV forum but it seems to have crashed...getting a server down response!

Link didn't work for me, Syc...

Ok, you just need to google

news of the world, xfactor, danyl, bisexual and the article is the first hit.

Sorry guys, google those key words as the NOW is encrypted and so can't be linked.

trickorninks - I do wonder, though. If you're a 16-20-year-old boy (discounting any who may be gay) you're surely going to have a stiffy like a ramrod at the thought of being "mentored" by FHM's Top Hottie.

Oh, I read that earlier.

That's the papers stuff she was referring to, isn't it? Completely odd and ill-judged of her to allude to it on live tv though.

Oh yes, I totally agree BOF (see my outrage about 2 seconds after the show ended earlier on this thread).

It's so odd though as she has loads of gay fans, I wonder if she felt this gave her license to be flippant with him about it???

G-Funk ERROR.

As an aside, how do you get tickets to go see X Factor?

"Louis is saying that Danyl was mean to Kandy Rain and made them cry... "

But if they were pole dancers/strippers they must be as hard as nails. They must have heard all the shit of the day from men. Not buying that vulnerable shit.

But everyone had gone right off Danyl for being a bit arrogant and crap recently which I think was deliberate because he looked like the winner by a long shot in his first audition.

So he had to underplay it a bit and rise slowly up.

And now he's the poor little puppy.

Not to say that Dannii's comment wasn't out of order, but it's a drama this, and anything goes.

love the "For someone whose career was riding on the back of her sisters fame..." comment on the ITV forum...

Miaow!
