Television The X Factor 2011

Have been watching the US version and while the talent is on another level, almost everyone involved is really fecking annoying. Judges and wannabes alike.
 
I reckon this twist that they will swap the judges groups round at the last minute.

Also, not happy that Terry Winstanley didn't get through...

:confused:

Simon and LA Reid aren't the least bit annoying. Cheryl Cole and Nicole might be annoying but they are cute so its a push.

In the early rounds they deliberately cut the footage to make the contestants look like bellends. The talent level is pretty high though, god knows how they will get down to 32.

Yeah, spose I was a bit harsh. I do like Nicole and Paula is a legend. I just don't like all the fakeness.
 
It's on in Ireland already on froday nights. I actully enjoy it. LA Reid is quite possibly the coolest fecking man since Sammy L Jackson in Pulp Fiction. When he get's into a tune and starts body popping/twitching (not sure which) it is so funny.

You tube the drug addict who came on and sang his own song, I think it was called Young Homie.

He was awesome and pretty original too. It coul get stupid with him though as Cowell will have him singing vanilla Ice tunes before you know it.
 
The "twist" will be that Cheryl is returning to the judging panel for the live shows.
 
What's with the map thing Erica?
 
I actually like the two orange essex girls group thing. They can sing and they're quite funny in the same way as Stacey Solomon was.

Can't help but think some of these acts have been put thru for appearance rather than talent

Who were you thinking of in particular?
 
For some reason tapatalk gives my location.

I thought Jade was very good and much better than that little Irish girl. Plus frankie isn't a marvellous singer by any stretch, they're just going for teens votes.

What a load of rubbish - but I'm with Livvie, looks like we are going to be fighting over James ( although he'd not have to speak obviously )

I think it's easy to criticise the X-Factor for things like this but the reality is that ugly people don't sell records. There are, of course, the odd exceptions but they're few and far between.

Unless they write cracking tunes. Yes, that John guy had a make over and was a better singer than Frankie but was boring. If neither of them are going to write their own material, I might as well get to look at a cutie with a bit of personality.

And as an aside...

:D My feelings exactly.
 
The "twist" is that there is no public vote this weekend and each mentor will get rid of 1 of their own acts.

Not impressed with that.

Gary will keep his favourites regardless.

I can't stand Frankie, and Craig is just Rik Waller revisited.
 
Is that a fat joke Livvie? ;)

No. I just didn't rate Rik Waller, and Craig reminds me of him. Because of the weight, admittedly, but I didn't mean it as a joke. :nervous:
 
Nah, I'm Louis' cousin. He tried to get me to come to Judges' Houses but I was busy so he had to go with Sunita.
 
He's actually better than that. They've obviously just gone "you're gay, get singing gay icon songs."

I remember Rik Waller making a "celebrity" appearance at a club in Maidstone (Kent, England) about 10 years ago. It was Xmas time and they were handing out free mince pies as you walked in. The poor guy got absolutely pelted with hundreds of mince pies as he walked up onto the stage. He also got a chorus of "who ate all the pies?":lol:.
 
2Shoes are awful

Gary Barlow is a boss...he's cool

Tulisa and Kelly <3
 
Gary goes in hard

'I wanna be nice, it girls, karaoke might Romford!'

Kelly: 'Where the he'll is Romord'
 
This Misha was doing all right until she burst into that stupid rap.
 
What the feck is she wearing!? feck's sake.
