Hate to be tardy to the party.

Is it just me, or is there hardly any memorable acts this year?

So far a terrible lot of the same old, same old blandness and hype.

Kitty Brucknell
Johnny Robinson
JonJo Kerr
2 shoes
Nu Vibe
Rhythmix
Amelia Lily
Frankie Cocozza
James Michael



For the love of God just get rid of all of the above and leave us with some talent.

Did anyone see that girl from Dublin that was on 'skype' on the xtra factor asking a question to the judges... my god she really wanted to show off her boobs!

it happens every so often. this is the week year. the year (had to look up wiki, because i couldn't remember his name) leon jackson won, fairly shocking bunch, your man with the opera voice was lovely, but his attitude sucked.


any way, there's definite room for improvement.

but i'm backing janet,sami and james to be in the final

Man, I want my 2 1/2 hours back......

All I can say is thank God for Sky+ and i only lost 1 1/2 hours of my life to that crap!

It has to be the worst opening night of the show's history. The only performance that stood out as being anyway good was Misha.

As for Kitty, the make up crew should be shot, I'm sure there were children all over the country screaming with fear and hiding behind their parents!

What a load of crap.

When the Essex ones were singing, the blonde one took the mic away from her mouth and the harmony kept going.
Mophead (Frankie) couldn't hit the high notes.
Louis is out to sabotage his acts again.
Diana Vickers has dyed her hair.
There's a girl in one of the groups that freaks the hell out of me. The one with the teacosy head.

Waste of film and airtime really.

dee.

I hope Kitty, 2 Shoes, Mischa and James go tonight but I have a feeling it will be Amelia/Sophie, Nu Vibe, Marcus and Jonjo

My tuppence, that no one cares about: I absolutely hate Janet and Frankie, partly because everyone loves them so much despite neither of them having an ounce of talent.

I thought the best were Misha, Craig and The Risk; all three really impressed me. On the whole though, I thought the majority of the acts were a let down.

If it helps everyone here absolutely hates Frankie and Janet has sort of split us down the middle. I'm with you though, pair of gombeens the both of them!

I *breeeeeathe* hate *aaaaaaaaaaah* how *uuuuuuh* she has *ghhhhh* to breathe after every fcuking word. Yet everyone I know loves her.

I still think Kitty deserves more credit than she is getting. She was miles better than Johhny and Johnjo as well as several other acts on the night. She was far from the best of the night but she was also far from being the worst.

And all her bleedin words run together! So that combined with the breathing makes her sound stupid. Someone here compared her to an 18 month old child learning to talk and it's so true!

Ah now, tbf, Amelia Lily has a class voice! It's just she got a wrong choice of song and they ****ed her over big time with the cheap makeover. She looked so much better during her original audition

So the wife was sick last night so I just watched last nights episode and here is my round up (names might be spelt wrong but you'll get my point):

Frankee: shíte, I can't stand him. He's the second worst singer behind.......
JohnJo: Terrible and I got the impression Louis was waiting to nail him for picking his own song.
Craig: Seems decent, in with an outside chance
Nu Vibe: I don't like them, they'll do ok though
The Risk: seem good, another JLS but a bit better
Johnny: trying to make him the new Wagner although I like him he doesn't deserve to be there.
Kitty: Katie Weasle V1.1 not as annoying and a better singer though
2 Shoes: I don't think they are that bad as people are saying but I think they'll go tonight
Janet: making it hard for me as I usually route for anyone Irish but she's a spa and very overrated.
Mischa B: Why aren't they saying her second name? Trying to hard to be different with her clothes, amazing singer though
Amilella: I really like her but I think she'll go tonight.
James: i like his voice but anyone who wears those bloody hats I automatically want to kick in the balls
Sami: another Mary Byrne, top 6 if she's lucky. I like her.

I thought she was awful, and that's not just cos I don't like her. She did that song a huge injustice, her voice was way too weak, she struggled with a lot of the big notes and was out of key a lot!

Sorry I got distracted and forgot. I really like Sophie. I thought Jade got screwed last week but I think Lelly got it bang on.

Amelia will be gone tonight, has to.

William Hill have James as 1/7 favourite to be eliminated from the boys, while their other favourites to be eliminated are Sophie for the girls at 4/6, Two Shoes at 2/5 and Jonjo at 1/6. As expected really, however I think Amelia will go for the girls - she's quoted at 6/5.

there is always a funny liveblog in the guardian

a bit long - but worth reading

Its such a pity what they did to Amelia If she had gone and done exactly what she did in her first audition, there wouldn't be any doubt she'd be through. She was barely recognisable from her first audition...she looks cheap. I'm expecting her to go tonight, but its such a pity, I would have liked to see her progress.

mystic86

whats all this crap about amelia and her first audition

her voicy then was also very shouty and tearing/jarring and she also wore stupid makeup
