    I am just wondering really cause i don't see the point in people voting for him. If people don't like the x factor then just don't watch it!

    OP

    I vote for him because he is the most entertaining.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,425 ✭✭✭telekon


    Cos he will spell the end to any credibility (if any) the show has left.

    Its directly comparable to people buying the Rage against the Machine single last christmas to oust joe whats-his-face from the no.1 spot.


  • Registered Users Posts: 43,881 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Yep.. he is the most entertaining among a large unwashed sea of mediocrity (bar Matt Cardle).

    Who else is there to vote for? Waissel? Lloyd? Waste of space.. the lot of them!

    Wagner FTW!

    but its a singing competition!
    I know entertaining is a big part of that but .... ah well suppose i cant do anything else apart from vote!

    But on the flipside - what about Jedward last year? They were entertaining.. but tone deaf.

    And they're doing far better than last year's winner, who was no doubt a superior singer.

    Mary, rebecca, matt!

    I totally agree that waissel and lloyd are a waste of space but putting wagner through puts mary closer the end...... and cher well the judges "see" something in her so she will never go!

    Ya jedward were highly annoying though and people still didnt want them in but wagner he s not that annoying he just cant sing!


  • Registered Users Posts: 43,881 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Mary, rebecca, matt!
    Matt is probably the best singer..

    .. Mary is growing every more mediocre as weeks go on, and Rebecca has a great voice but absolutely zero presence.

    My opinion though..

    The name X Factor would suggest to me its not just a singing competition.
    Wagner is entertaining and its funny to watch

    absolutley agree with your view.

    To be honest i think that i wouldn't mind Wagner if Louis gave him songs which he could just sing!

    I personally like Rebecca. I think she's been given rubbish guidance on the show. Again only my opinion.

    Don't get me wrong.. I really like Rebecca but there's absolutely nothing about her, or her voice, that wows me.

    She has a great voice.. but she's missing something.

    But you're right.. maybe with proper guidance, she could be something really special.

    You're right. Its all about opinions. You can't please everyone.
    I want to see Cher out. Really don't like her


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,423 ✭✭✭tinkerbell


    It's not a singing competition. It stopped being a singing competition when Simon chose to send Treyc home and kept Katie in the competition because Katie was more "interesting". Treyc was the better singer.

    Even more proof of this is when they chose to send home Paije over Cher last week - Paije is clearly the better singer. Cher sounds like someone just stepped on a cat's tail with the yowling noises that she makes every week.

    WAGNER TO WIN!!!!! GO WAGNER!

    First of all yes, your right that is a stupid question.

    Secondly people vote for him because he's so perfect & awesome.

    Unlike most of the other contestants, I see him as entertaining and exciting to watch in terms of showmanship. I am also entertained by his performance. I cannot say the same for another performer on the programme, regardless of their vocal ability, or his.

    Please OP, vote Wagner tonight, even if you don't watch the show - as Mary would say herself - every little helps:D

    I liked him at the start because he was very entertaining. His performance for Elton John week was up there with the Raoul Moat saga, The Chilean Miners rescue and Rovers missing 4 penalties in the cup final as the best TV ive seen all year. Now i still find him entertaining and want him to go through after Queen Chav Cheryl maliciously tried to set him up last week.

    For the above reasons and the fact is that he hasn't been running, crying, complaining to the press daily/weekly, he has actually been nice to ALL on air and despite others openly insulting him - he still so far has managed to keep some semblance of good manners and decency with all around him is insulting, intimidating and treating him generally like dirt - and live on TV to boot!

    ...And thats just part of the reason why I'm voting for him!

    Absolutely. I can't wait to see sweet little Cheryl show her true colours when he makes it through to the final :D
