Brilliant! Prob his best so far.

Is the sound weird for anyone else? Happening for me on TV3 and ITV.

Yeah, I thought the sound was dropping out a bit during Craigs song.

Everyone is karaoke compared to Craig as far as im concerned. He's bringing it.

Lady Gaga song? Gotta give it to the lad.


Rick Astley look though... shudder! Nail on head Biggins

a lot of sites will get variations of stories ready just so they can publish them first once the story goes live. Say they have versions all acts and just released this one early by accidentally.

Yeah, looks like this has happen, and STV don't have them on their website to access directly, but if you google each of the four contestants names with the word back, four separate stories come up

OFCOM will have truckload of complaints over it I reckon!!

Great performance by Craig, really interesting version of the song - ffs, more ads???

Ginny

Haha that was on in the Indian I was in earlier and I was thinking I'd love if someone sang it tonight

From the Guardian Liveblog:


Buoyed up by his hi-NRG experiment last week, Craig's doing Paparazzi. At this rate, by next week he'll be doing Firestarter, albeit in a gruesome sub-Adele manner. Because, let's not much about, he's doing this as a dreary little piano ballad. And he's pulling out all the stops for it. The fist-clench. The sincere head shake. The curled lip that makes him look as if he's trying to bit his own earlobe off. It sounds like a Susan Boyle song. Obviously I don't mean that as a compliment. Obviously.


Ha!

That stv link claims James Michael is back in as well. I think they were just pre-written for each contestant.

I can't warm to Craig at all for some reason

to be honest I think he looks a bit like a hot water bottle.

Was so looking forward to Gaga week, and what balls it is turning out to be...

This is awful. People are still voting. I wonder what Ofcom will say to this?
This confirms that X factor is a fix. It makes you wonder if Frankie's exit was stage-managed.
btw the article seems to have disappeared!!

Amelia Lily's victory has been announced on here while the supposedly 'live' programme says the voting lines are still open....in fact it was up here before the programme started!

ANOTHER BREAK!>!? What the frick!

The Advertising slots must have cost a fortune. I assume they are contractually required to air them at a specific time.

Just a bit weird that they went into detail about Kelly's reaction to Amelia coming back though. The three other pages scream 'cover up' to me :cool:

Paparazzo

Richard Claderman! Legend, i'm off to ticketmaster.ie

will there be anything done about it, me thinks not,

its just a publicity stunt, me thinks (I need to stop thinking) me thinks.

Not looking forward to this, Radio Gaga is an awfully cheesey song and I don't think Lidl Mix can pull it off.

sunbabe08

little mix!!!

dolliemix

Yay Littlemix. My fav. I'm almost scared to say that though cos twice now my fav's have gone. Sami and the Risk

C'mon The Mix

Tulisa is surprisingly domestic

ibarelycare

I hope they do well tonight!

They were all posted at the same time, 8.20pm - they expect Amelia to be voted back in - but problems at the BT tower raise more suspicion

I'd agree - they are going to pretend thay had 4 results ready and published them by mistake
