I know you did'nt watch it JW but I thought you might have heard that so many were going home. It seems it was in the papers this week and on the morning TV. I don't think it's fair this year to loose one from each team all in the first week but there you go. I'll watch tonight to see who all goes home.

I didnt read anything about it - just watching it now on ITV3
It looks like make up used a spray gun on some of them. Poor girl from Two Shoes had her lipstick smeared half way up her face
I did think tho that Misha (sp) looked amazing in the setup and getup - why they all have to "rap" I dont know but it seems to be de rigueur in most of the songs
Not sure why the dancers were wearing rainmacs with hoods up tho
Matt Cardle got by in a flat cap and scruffy overalls ;D
This year a rather strange mix IMO

Well have watched it all now and I think Craig will win and Janet a close second But oh dear they had died her lovely hair RED - just a few blonde streaks or glints would have looked so much better but at least she didnt have a circus act dancing behind her and neither did Craig They had used the red hair dye on a lot of them I fear I thought poor Louis looked like Tin Tin ;D Just off now to listen to Craig again on YouTube - awesome song, so emotive Matt Cardle is on 2nite as guest singer

I wont say how many packets of Chokky buttons I ate waiting for the results
I agree with all of them apart from Gary's choice - I thought he made big mistake

Forget name think Marlon or the one with eye make up on - Frankie - hope got names right either of those I thought the one that went had a lot of potential - if he didnt wear his hat Matt looked just the same - love his new single

I agree about the boy who went home and thought he's got a very distictive voice but only when he sings certain songs.

The sob stories get on my nerves and there is so much crying with the two female judges this time; I am still amazed how their mascara never runs

Matt Cardle has been slagging off the X Factor again. He's said things like he wishes people would just stop thinking of him as the winner of the show and that he compromised himself by appearing on it and wearing the makeup and clothes they wanted him to wear. I think he needs to remember that its those people who referr to him as being the winner of the show might just be the people who spent their money to vote for him.It's a bit much I think since this is the show that made him. People are all too willing to forget where they came from I think. i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd161/GWDAdmin1/Smilies/Default/angry.gif

I think Sophie and maybe one of the groups will go 2nite
Johnny Robinson - what a nice guy
Kitty - goodness she is so anxious and scary really
Mica B should not be in the comp - she is as Gary said, already a professional - it was like watching one of the guest acts = love her make up and get up each week - she can carry it off

Post by Ladygardener on Oct 16, 2011 7:02:22 GMT
I agree with what you're saying about Mica B JW. I thought they all seemed nervous last night and none of them really stood out. I think Sophie and maybe one of the groups will go 2nite There's just one act leaving tonight is'nt there? or have I missed something.

Oh you is prob right I just thought two were going so it will be Sophie I think
Janet's voice is totally different but has she got the panache to be a Star - maybe too young am not sure
I am sure Johnny Robinson is related to Cardew - I think will google

I definately thought last night was not Janet's best performance but she has had a lot to deal with this past week and as you say, she's very young.

I don't go for any of the groups really. I wouldn't buy a CD by them, certainly. I think Janet, Craig and Misha will be in the finals. Johnny will go further because people like him, but he isn't a winner, I don't think.

What had happened to Janet in the week was it something to do with her Grandpa No Johnny not a winner but I think he could become a star in his own right - everyone loves him he is so genuine - he was learning to text and twitter last week I just put in my vote for him ;D

Yes JW he died during the week and she had to fly home for the funeral. All her family were in the audience last night 'tho, they flew over to give her support. I'm sure it was verry upsetting.

Awh poor Janet - you would recognize her voice anywhere wouldnt you really it is so distinctive - she reminds me of Enya in a way No one likes her pinky red hair it seems and Kelly had to tell Mica off for being a diva she had been rude it appears to the production and film crew

Mica shouldnt be there really she is already IMO a true professional - I would go to watch her in a show without a doubt - but when she has finished singing she puts on a little girl lost act - is that real

Post by Geranium on Oct 16, 2011 19:17:13 GMT
But isn't the point of the X-factor to discover real talent? That's why Misha stands out - and I still think she'll either win, or get a record contract. She shouldn't be rude, though - she's only a contestant.

Oh dear the wonderful Katy Perry had been blasted with the red hair dye machine Frankie looks so small and tiny on stage I was so surprised to see him standing next to Dermot that he was actually taller than Dermot

I think Gary Barlow got his eyes open last night when he found one of his acts in the sing off, is his name Frankie . When Dermott asked him how he was feeling at the start of the show, he was so confident and said he was'nt nervous while all the other Judges said they were nervous because nobody can say for sure how the public are going to vote.

Was Frankie voted off Lady I missed the last bit - I dont rate his voice and I did think he sang out of tune for each song - maybe that's the way they sing now
