Why The X Factor Finalists Are Upset in the Cold Light of the Morning Sun

Motley Crue

So this morning, I had a think about why some of the X Factor finalists would be terribly nervous, upset and worried...and here's a few reasons, asides from the obvious...

Tracy - In the bottom 2 last night, she realises that she needs more media exposure, or just a more memorable song, despite being in a publicly popular group with Cheryl as her mentor she is still the one in that group that is eclipsed by the other members. Could be going home next week if she's not careful.

Katie - Saved from bottom 2 in the first week to fly straight through the two weeks after. But is her big mouth getting her in trouble, is her talkative nature going to be the death of her, is she likely to be too "hardcore" for the rest of the group and for the audience. And did she really kiss James Blunt? Who knows.

Belle Aime - Problems problems problems. The girls can sing, they're all well loved, but can they compete against One Direction. Papers report every week that they should go, given the X Factor's past and given the public's possible hatred of girl groups. Also, performing a Girls Aloud version of a song made famous by the Pretenders and dressing themselves, could have cost them dearly.

Simon might have a hard time because two acts are gone, but like Louis, he now has the time to focus more energy and time on his remaining groups - a luxury Cheryl doesn't have. Will Simon even bother, Simon sees something special in One Direction, but can Bell Aime even compete with an already saturated UK market, so perhaps Simon feels the energy is best put to where the reward will be greater.

Paige, Wagner and Rebecca - All wild card entries, two of which are in groups where other members have been eliminated, now knowing they did better as wild cards then those who were originally chosen and mentored to be at judges houses. The judges probably didn't think the wild cards would get this far, but three have survived, and "real" acts have been sent home. Paige also became the first to avoid going on first and finishing last this week. These acts should consider themselves extremely lucky and prepare to up their game-plan for next week onwards.

Cher - Being outed this week as a liar, having claimed to have written extra words for songs, and then it being proved she didn't....going to the judges houses and not being able to sing...and dressing like Cheryl Cole...all this has still allowed Cher to get through without a problem. Even her guilty pleasure involved her destroying Tears For Fears, without any kind of real singing, which she only seems to do during the group medley on the Sunday. Cher should be worried because the backlash is growing every week.

Correction: Rebecca was NOT a wildcard entry ..... Treyc was the wildcard for the girls.

What about Mary? She should be worried about black dresses and ballads. Apparently Lulu has something in store for her - and he's a loon so god knows what it is. And if she kicks off and does her own thing again it'll be the end of her...

If I was Wagner, I'd be worried at being made into a joke act/ love God, he should get an opera track or something.... Louis knows he won't win so ket him have his dignity and showcase the talent he has.

katie kissing james blunt who knows. think it suited them both to have this story out at the same time. her on the xfactor and him having his album coming out

Nolanger

Louis Walsh should be worried as he won't get invited back as a judge next year?
