I hate big band week...why can't we have New Romantic week or something!

I can't stand kids belting out those so called classic tunes, they usually murder them. Now how about a bit of Thompson Twins, Alison Moyet, Spandu....would be fab.

Jedward doing a track that isn't even Big Band at all but sure it will be so funny, they are just playing along with their media all and having a laugh about it all and the fact that it annoys Saint Cheryl and Simon makes it sweet. Their response to Cheryl Cole saying to them you can't sing by saying it's like you telling David Beckham he can't play football ROFL.

Darlo, I actually smile everytime I see them. They are sooooo growing on me. I started to cringe when I saw the red suits last week but by the end of the performance I thought, well done lads. Entertainment, pure and simple. At the beginning they were getting a roasting in the Irish Media. Everyone and their mother thought they were 'hideous', but now the tide is turning and they have quite a substantial fanbase.
Good on them I say! To their detractors I would say, lighten up!

Jedward have new haircut.

I like the sound of that, Teddy. It would be so much better than Big Band Week.

Skinhead?

For those that have the Twins growing on them, just check it's not a fungus.

X Factor twins John and Edward try out different hairstyles as they seek to forge their own identities

By Daily Mail Reporter
Last updated at 6:48 PM on 23rd October 2009

Their identity as identical twins won the heart of Louis Walsh - and their place in the X Factor live shows.

But it seems John and Edward Grimes may be attempting to forge individual identities.

The blonde 18-year-olds from Dublin stepped out of the X factor house today with noticeably different hair.

They're not quite there yet, though.

Tomorrow the remaining X Factor contestants, including John and Edward, will perform Big Band tracks for their chance to stay in the show.

They have spent this week being mentored by Canadian singing star Michael Bublé.

The jazz crooner has given them hints about how to do well in the show.

Leona Lewis For X Factor – 8th November 2009

October 23rd, 2009 by Lisa McGarry.

Former X Factor winner Leona Lewis, has been asked to perform her new single ‘Happy’ on the ITV talent show.

Leona’s new album, Echo, will be released two weeks after the performance and is expected to reach the top of the album charts.

HMV reports that Leona “returns to the X-Factor stage on Sunday 8th November 2009″

STACEY’S STAR ATTRACTION

CANADIAN crooner Michael Bublé gave the X Factor wannabes a masterclass in singing yesterday – and admitted he’s smitten with Stacey Solomon.

Simon Cowell drops his pay from ITV to £5 million a year to stay with them.
It's going to mean buying less T-Shirts I suppose, and he'll have to give less to the Dogs home.
Poor Simon.

Simon Cowell takes a £3m pay cut to stay at ITV - Exclusive

By Nicola Methven 24/10/2009

And he insists he’s happy to do it

Simon Cowell is to sign a new ITV deal tying him to the channel for another two years – after agreeing a £3.5million pay CUT.

Instead of earning around £6.7million a year for producing and starring in X Factor and Britain’s Got Talent, he will get an annual salary closer to £5million.

But Simon, 50, who is poised to sign the contract in days, is delighted, saying: “I wouldn’t work anywhere else.”

The acid-tongued judge is proud that the sixth series of X Factor has topped last year’s ratings. And he’s “cock-a-hoop” after Britain’s Got Talent became the most watched show of the last five years when 19million tuned in to see May’s final.

ITV bosses are thrilled their biggest star will remain through the recession, which has seen advertising revenues tumble.

Simon’s £10million earnings are tied into bumper production fees to his company Syco – soon to become Greenwell Entertainment after his link-up with retail mogul Philip Green. A source said: “The deal ensures the budgets for the programmes Simon loves to make are left more or less intact.”

Simon said recently: “ITV gave me my break and I’d never leave them. I have given my word, contract or no contract.”

Tonight’s X Factor sees the return of judge Louis Walsh, who has been absent since the sudden death of his close pal and protege, Boyzone singer Stephen Gately.

He will rejoin Simon, Cheryl Cole and Danni Minogue

for the show, with crooner Michael Buble mentoring acts including twins John and Edward Grimes, Stacey Solomon and Lucie Jones.

Can't wait for Louis to come back, he's been missed poor Danni's been left to sit on her own and a space due to Louis char being empty, whilst Saint Cheryl and Simon are sat close together.

Who would have thought it?

Bon Jovi next week

Alexandra Burke has said that she is pleased that her single will be knocked off the number one spot in this week's record chart by her X Factor mentor Cheryl Cole. The 2008 X Factor winner is set to see her single `Bad Boys' replaced at the top of the chart by Cheryl's debut solo single `Fight For This Love' when the official chart is revealed on Sunday.

Burke had the fastest-selling track of the year, clinching the number one spot on last week's chart, but she is set to be eclipsed by her X Factor mentor.

Alexandra told The Sun that she is 'pleased' that Cheryl will take the No1 slot in the charts.

She said: "Her performance on The X Factor was absolutely outstanding and I think she deserves it.

"I wish her every success."

Alexandra added that the Girls Aloud star's solo success proved that it was possible to make the transition from singing in a group.

Burke said: "She just proves the point that if you've been in a group and you want to leave a group and you have time off, you can still be successful."

Meanwhile, it has been reported that Cheryl's husband Ashley Cole has arranged a "massive bash" to celebrate her first solo No 1 record.

It is believed that the footballer will "whisk" Cheryl away from the studios after the results show on Sunday night to the party.

More panto villian stuff from the Cowell. Is there nothing this man won't do for ratings.

He may be considered a panto villain, but he's usually right, and I'd never bet against what he says.
A very clever feller, and if he tells you this.
------------
He told 34-year-old Archer, who had been rehearsing the song all week: "That was well below par. You are finished if you sing that."
------------
Then you can bet he is right, it just means that Archer had the wrong song for his voice or the song was too hard for him to sing.

“X Factor have given fans Robbie Williams and Whitney Houston. Now with Bon Jovi, Shakira and all being well, Lady GaGa, it will make it the best series yet for big name acts.”


Shakira on XF and possibly Lady GaGa it gets even better.

Shakira & Lady Gaga will be well worth watching for, love Lady Gaga, those outfits are out of this world, what a girl.

Shakira is brill and so pretty, Lady GaGa is weird and eccentric but both can sing and would be fab to watch. She Wolf, Let's Dance.

Here's a behind-the-scenes look at the TV commercial for Cheryl Cole's debut solo album '3 Words'. The CD includes the (soon-to-be number one) single 'Fight For This Love' and is released on Monday.

Revealed: X Factor Week 3 songs

flaming x-factor

I'm sorry, I'll leave now.

I bet Danyl will steal the night as usual

I have to admit, if I voted for "best act of the night" .. he would have had my vote for the last two weeks without a shadow of doubt

I love Danyl - Stacey & Joe .... but of the 3, even though I like Stacey & Joe more as people ... Danyl has  definitely been head and shoulders above all the others

Oh so Simon got his way after all

I love that song anyway

Danyl is really good PF.



Can't wait to see Jedward, Jamie and Lucie also.

Bring it on Lloyd

Evening all  Big bands......wonder how it will go lol

Evening everyone. This show is becoming more about the Judges than the acts

Hi all - doesn't Ollie look like his mum?

Always has been really, I doubt many would watch if there were no celebs judging and instead just four professionals who are not known to the public.
