Ah right, I agree, he would have got rid of Diva Fever if he'd had to vote

I think you are all extremely critical of Bell Amie. They might not have totally gelled yet, but that will take time and I think they have a great style and serious potential. If you look at the individual audition of all the Bell Amie members they all can sing, look at the Girls aloud individual auditions apart from Nicola and Nadine they were all atrocious, but they became one of the biggest girl groups in the UK.

Give them a chance for crying out loud.

Louis, Dannii and Chez definitely did make the right decision. Cheers for that vid RiverRock

I just thought it would have been quite funny if Deva Fever had stayed over them. Bit like Jedward staying over Lucy last year

I didn't like Diana Vickers when she was on a couple of years ago... I now hate her for blatantly ripping off Under the Bridge by RHCP...

Yeh I agree, Diva Fever raged the life out of me they are pure shite and I actually hate uber camp men.

Vickers is a tosser as well.

Yeah I bet she is

I think after this weeks display its quite clear that cheryl and simon are humping.

He wishes more like. Old enough to be her Dad.

Am I glad you posted that!
Could I think what song that sounded like 
That's it  and I agree - rip-off.

They could be any more up each others arses if they tried.

If it turns out that Simon and Cheryl are shagging each other, I'll get 'I <3 Louis Walsh' tattooed on my you know what, and personally fly all the way to Ireland and show it to you. That's how much I know that it just aint happening

Of course it isn't happening ...

Cheryl and Simon are very successful confident people. They are drawn together ( not in that way though)

Completely

Well Cat Deeley slept with Nigel Lythgoe for her presenting spot on the US So You Think You Can Dance...

If this question re Simon and Cheryl was asked last year I would have said yes. Now I'm not so sure. This year it's like she keeps looking at him for assurance or help whenever Louis challenges her.

Simon holds the key to Cheryl in the US so who knows 

you'd really have to go personally to show it I suppose

well not really

Kinetics are a bitch sometimes

Does anyone else get a bit of a negative vibe from John? i can't put my finger on it but for some reason I just don like him.

FFS the whole country is away PC mad, reading over on DS people complaining about Dermot using the term 'Sophies Choice'

Just saw Storm and Diva Fever on This Morning. Storm said the whole image makeover and stage stuff was all Louis' doing, and that Storm and him disagreed over stuff. Why didn't they just leave Storm as he was, give him a mic and just let him sing without all the rubbish?

Diva Fever weren't overly happy either, said they were not happy with the song choice all week and were not happy with the way they were being portrayed.

So it seems that on this show the contestants have no input whatsoever regarding song choice, production, image....

All artists need direction and guidance I suppose but I think it's imperative that they also feel comfortable with what they're singing, especially if they're competing.The 2 that seem to be getting it right are Cheryl and Dannii.

The acts should be given far more input, Bell Amie killed their song in the sing off, in fairness I though their actual song on sat night was very good.

I said all along they have no choices. Most of the contestants are fed up. Even Matt said he's had to watch his integrity fly out the window since he came on the show.

i only watch the sunday shows,, the main show is all about the judges going.. you owned that , you smashed it.. even if they were shoite...
I just like to watch their expressions when they are booted out. dont think diva fever or fyd should have gone thoough.
does that make me a bad person??????
ah well, roll on next sunday

I've known this since the dawn of Pop Idol. Its why I can'ne stand these shows and why Fame Academy was far more credible

I loved Fame Academy Rawky - and you got the whole package - songwriting and image as well as the singing were theirs.
Not that either of the winners have had a very successful career out of it mind you - but It gave Lemar a great career.


I think they should do away with the mentoring part of the competition - all judges choose the acts for each category and then they are taught by the coaches - the judges should be just that - judges, but without having so much say in the rehearsals. Does that make sense?

Just watching back the Belle Amie clip on You Tube, they were very good I think, I am now supporting them

Ah so Strom and Diva fever are both blaming their mentors for their exit.....nothing to do with Storm being shit and Diva Fever not singing for most of their song.

Diva Fever were given a song with no lyrics how were they supposed to sing it?

I particularly enjoyed the subtitles on the chorus...

disley!

I was watching it on Saturday and knew there'd be another piss-take of her terrible diction.
I can't find the 'Bunny Herbs' one, but found this.

And this!

One positive I have to say about this year is the production, it is amazing. When I think of X factor's gone by, it was just a mic and the singer, in the later years they introduced dancers and more interaction. This year it just seems to have moved to a whole new level. I think Brian Friedman and Grace Woodward teaming up are to thank for that.

Ohh read on twitter that it's def coming back in 2011 too

I thought they were 100% better  in the sing off .... Just goes to show what a difference that makes when they are allowed to make thier own song choices .... Imo, they should all be given more freedom of choice,  & also, with  their clothes.

Can you imagine having to appear on prime time TV each week wearing something that someone else has chosen for you .... it's bloody ridiculous if you ask me .... I thought Belle Amie looked like they had just fallen out of Oxfam on saturday night
