Good! Gobby little trog tramp!
Pissing off people like Louis Walsh won't do her any favours, people may laugh at him but he's been around long enough and knows enough people to have words in ears.
I look forward to hearing of her fall from grace *rubs hands*
I'm with you all the way on this one.
I don't watch X Factor so I do not know Cher Lloyd.
I have just been to YouTube to have a look at her.
She doesn't sing - she sort of chants/raps like school playground stuff.
And she repeatedly points her left hand non-stop.
If she is the standard of this year's X Factor I am pleased that I don't watch.
Watching her version of Shakespeare's Sister's "Stay" and it's a kind of typical Americanised R&B-ish interpretation that is the staple of the X Factor. So, not really to my taste as I have a strong aversion to that style, especially when affected by Brits, but overall, not terrible if you like that sort of thing. She seemed to hit the notes and had the range X Factor singers seem to think is the be all and end all pre-requisite - a talent of sorts but really as predictable as hell.
Let's face it, Louis Walsh is a jumped up money man who got lucky with a bunch of brain-dead pretty boys doing formulaic pap for those who consume their music in the same way others consume their literature - the musical equivalent of a Mills and Boon novel.
For his contribution to the debasement of music, I'd like to do much the same - although for different reasons than Cher probably has.
Louis had already slagged off Cher on Sky News before the Sunday show so perhaps she heard about that and told him to do one?. I would have done the same thing too if I heard that he said that yet she hasn't slagged him off in public, maybe privately if she dislikes him but he hasn't worked much with her backstage..
If Louis disliked Cher then he would have saved Paije over her with him saying that he was a fan off his in the start, before some will say Simon told him to save her well in a way thats true in terms of who is more interesting for some to the show and more marketable in a business sense.
I believe what Matt said in his interviews because they clearly got on, although Mary has said some negative stuff but you can't get on with everyone.
I like Louis but he's a hypocrite I remember him begging last year for people not to be nasty about Jedward and got really wound up a few times on Xtra Factor by the audience which I agreed with him then.
At least one positive is that he is positive about the acts he has like the year with JLS when he stood on top of a bus with a loudspeaker begging people to vote for them.
I think she's got a bit of growing up to do to handle the business and the kindest thing the judges could have done was not put her through in the first place (or let her go at bootcamp), told her to go away, give it a year or 2 and come back when she's grown up a bit.
Whether she can sing, rap, perform or whatever (personally I wasn't impressed) she doesn't come across as a very nice person. If one of my kids at seventeen had told an older person at work or in authority to eff off I'd have been mortified. I know they'd have had the sense and dignity to rise above it - mouthing off doesn't do anyone any favours.
The girl believes her own hype and I believe she'll slip into obscurity and this time next year we'll be saying 'Which one was Cher?'
If Cher wants to become famous through being controversial, edgy, publicity worthy, she'll have to try a lot harder. In years and decades past there have been singers/ musician's/Bands, actors/actresses, models, sportsmen who really know how to behave, or not behave well, to get the publicity that keeps them in the public eye. If that's not her preferred route to fame maybe she just wants to be a singer and perform I don't know anything about her personally apart from her being on XF and will forget her in a few weeks as I forget almost everyone on reality shows eventually.

IMO Banality is in the eye of the beholder. It has everything, millions of viewers, faux controversy, and the movement of cash. One could prepare a degree course around any one of a number of functions.
LOL, I don't know if you're being serious or not!
If I had just passed my A' Levels and was thinking about uni, I don't think I'd see a degree course on the X Factor as a good return on my future ÂĢ40k + debt.
The standard tabloid hack can usually offer all the critique that's ever going to be required of the X Factor.
The bits that interest me include, whether or not we have progressed further from Saturday afternoon wrestling and all the fixing, iconicity, and faux emotions. Also one can study the mechanism of how money disappears from One's arse pocket and ends up in Cowell's arse pocket. That's it in a nutshell and as much as I want to type onthis phone!
