    Yes... a genius.










    Desperation, more like.










    :o:o :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :D:D;);)









    Glad to hear that transition year boy wont be coming back to do the xtra factor.

    There's no denying that Matt was a bit of an unknown when he got the job.

    But his replacement is also a bit of an unknown, even if she is older and has some national radio experience... ;)

    Ever since she got booted off the USA X factor she went off the radar.

    Everyone will fall in love with her again.

    My sisters best friend has gone on through to Boot camp. Haven't heard her sing, but it's nice to see more Irish going through!

    And I wouldn't be surprised, either, if she's added Chrissie Hynde to her enemies list. ;)

    Wonder if she's still friends with Gary Lightbody? Bearing in mind that she collaborated with his band, and he said that she could actually sing... :rolleyes: ;);)

    The guy will get paid off handsomely so that it does not go through court. Good on him for sticking up for himself!

    If it is true that he was contacted first and that he was promised that he would be warmly welcomed then fair play to him. Just shows the lengths that this show will go to to get these joke acts.

    Is it just me or is the gossip a bit quite this year? I thought with Simon being back that it would be making more headlines by now. Or is it too early still?

    It's just the same recycled stories every year to try and pique the public's interest. Arguments between the judges. Contestants claiming the show is fixed. Simon saying that they've found a new boyband to rival One Direction. What are Cheryl and Mel B wearing.


    YAWN!





    Yet I'm still a little excited for it to start and to see Simon and Cheryl back together, even though they annoy the hell out of me :o

    Remember last year and their successful campaign to get ITV to renew the show for three more years? ;)

    As soon as this series gets underway, you can be sure that they'll bombard us with gossip, no matter what...

    (Admittedly, they didn't seem too interested in this year's BGT - but then they've never had quite as much interest in that show as they have in XF. ;))

    Same as the year she let Gamu go in favour of Katie Waissel.

    I remember after the final that year, when it was revealed who the judges believed would win the competition at the beginning, 2 out of the 4 had plumped for Gamu, who Cheryl had rejected at judges houses. Her face was a picture!

    As I said earlier in the thread, she is Simon's pet and he will favour her acts over anyone else's (saving Katie numerous times, changing the semi final rules to save Cher over Mary etc.) and this is why I was really disheartened to hear about her return, even more than the fact she would be using the show to promote herself as much as her acts.

    I'm looking forward to hearing the VO guy try to pronounce her new name.


    Although I've a feeling she might just go with "Cheryl", like Tulisa did.

    I barely made it through the year James Arthur won and I switched off halfway through the live shows last year.

    I don't think any combination of judges can save it. I just think the format has grown stale.

    I'd feel sorry for Sarah-Jane if she had to have Rylan as a co-host.

    Her biggest claim to fame before now, lest we forget, is presenting on BBC Radio 1Xtra.

    I don't know whether or not she's a Rylan fan - but I know that if I was a relative unknown and I was chosen as the new host of a big TV show, only to then find I had to host it alongside someone like Rylan, it would be a bit like a knife in the back... :mad: :mad: :(:( :rolleyes: :o

    Not sure why ITV have only now confirmed the start date, but August 30 had been suggested for at least three weeks beforehand.
