X Factor

carol101

So it seams to get into the live shows, all you have to do is mess up, fall apart and cry at the auditions. If you actually sing.............you're going home.

How awful were those decisions?!!!
Might not watch it now!
(except wondering what the twist is going to be now!)
So perhaps just one more time!

carol101

I can tell you what the twist is..................the judges get to chose a 4th act to take through!

coco67

how about theres an extra judge who will pick four from those who were rejected, now that would be a twist

I was also cross at the x factor and vowed not to watch it this time. My daughter was visiting us at the time. I laughed and said to her cause she can't sing bless her, well petal there is hope for you yet , all you need to do is forget words and cry. We all laughed as it is a long standing joke after we always heard her singing in her room or shower.

Life is too short to get agitated about TV dross airing the woes of talentless people. I suggest you read a good book or even a bad one in preference to the banal garbage of reality shows.

true. I get fedup with them. In fact, I am fed up with all TV at the moment. I miss the new Edwardian Period Costume which started on Sunday, but do like them.

But all these tallent contests.. really detest them
I shall only watch strictly because i love Matt.
Can you move like him Delboy???? bet you can

I was forced to watch it last night and although I don't like many of the bad singers on there the one person who in my eyes should have got through didn't, totally supprised as to how they could bin the little black lass Gamu Nhengu it's like I told the war office before that the show is totally fixed, they use the key tuning software to make people sound better than they naturally do then when the boot camp round starts it is taken away to make things a bit more interesting, oddly she (Gamu Nhengu) has been consistent regardless and there is something different about her she see has a presence all of her own, , she has a talent and a brain and I wonder if it is that that did for her.
Simon Cowel doesn't want anything other than fast food music performed by perfect looking manikins who don't ask but just do and that little lass is so much more than that so doesn't get a look in.
Always thought the program was junk food for the chav masses and this little spat has just confirmed it. Bring back the old grey whistle test for gods sake BBC!.

Whistling the tune as I type. Whispering Bob Harris. The outline of the bloke kicking the star. Later with Jools is better tho. DD

I can see a "Rage Against the Machine" type protest being bigger than ever this year!

frogmorton

wasn't it a bit of a con?

aren't they all going to add a wild card? or something.

By the way I can vouch for that being Del dancing for sure

cebeem

A con????!!!!!!!!!!!!
I must keep up! :oops:

frogmorton

Well not totally a con , but they want us to think they let GOOD ones go so they can have them back this weekend as their 'wild' cards :oops:

Sorry

Toni xx

cebeem

Ohhhhhh!
I thought you meant rage against the machine protest!!

So I began to ponder it and wondered why I hadnt realised that last year..........and now I have convinced myself that it probably was a con too!!

lululu

I like your pants Delboy - where so you live

Hye do you think that this mess with the X factor is following new government guidlines on immigration?. anyone who isn't British and fails gets an automatic deportation for their sins?.
Poor old Gamo played the wrong card totally, she is nice polite and has a rare talent that could well bring in millions in taxes so it was obvious she wuold be a target for the state to publicly show how tough they are do you think??.
Now if only she had follwed Binuhim Mohamed's example, you know the doddgy dude that was in Guantanimo for a bit, he came here on a false pasprt then leaft go for a bit of terrorist trainning with his mates the Taliban and Bin ladens boy scouts, he then tried again to come back here and again on another false pasport but got had at immigration in Pakistan.
He then was banged up in Cuba released and then the UK Labour government flew him back here on a private jet complete with his own lawer and a private doctor and CID protection, and to top it all he's been here ever since, lucky he can't sing well or he would still be wondering what the hell he did wrong!?.

Len.


You are a mad bugger Mell! but I luv ya.. in a manly no touchy way!

You haven't seen me otherwise you wouldn't say that, as I write this I'm wearing a red and white Gingham dress and army boots and on my left hand I have a glove puppet of a penguin and he's called Mr Flibble!!.

Oh one last thing, I watched Gammo's first audition and straight away you could tell she had something way above the rest, now don't take this as racist as it's not meant to be but she had that little extra that most black singers have, it's a much more natural/organic way with singing, sort of cool and laidback but totally in control, it’s like a deep inner rhythm, I find a lot of white singers are much more mechanical as a whole.

Thought it was Gamu Barbara

Oddly enough Mell

your description is a fair bit like I imagined :shock:

apart from Flippety that is.....

mellman01

I nicked the dress bit and Mr Flibble from red Dwarf bloody great program, sadly they re did a 3 part short series not long back but it had lost it's edge.
