The X Factor Thread

[jonsie]

I don't see much of it over here but I see the odd highlights on YouTube and I do have the app. OK I've always been a fan of people making themselves look ridiculous.... 

I'm well aware however that many good acts are cast aside for the obligatory ripley picked acts that have you throwing things at the TV... totally so it keeps the show in the ratings and Louis Walsh is there as the stooge! 

So who has your vote this year or are you like me. just watch to shake your head at the total commercialism and the money spinning Christmas release and the 10 minute fame of the winner? 

Does anyone here actually pay for the winning artist and what happens if a dog wins... does it get its own Pedigree Chum advert?

Here's a bit of advice.......ADVI !!

But seriously, i cannot get into X Factor this year.....the show has gone downhill.

The ridiculous pair Louis chose are called Bradley and Ottavia. (Or B.O.if you like)

The ones on the left.

With your last sentence about a dog winning @jonsie I think you are getting mixed up with X Factor and Britains Got Talent?  

Little Mix actually won and are still going strong now, which is unusual....

So dogs have actually won.... 

I do them a disservice though because they are actually quite good 

I do like the girl from Finland but I'm not sure if I agree with the concept of people from international countries or people who are already half famous being allowed to enter. I think it goes against the whole concept of a talent show....

@Cleoriff I forget about the Fillipino lady who couldn't go to the States because of visa problems. She had an amazing voice and who was she replaced by - HoneyG the would be rapper. I don't get it Sharon didn't want her at first and now she does. Must be something in the water in LA!

[Cleoriff]

I tend to agree. It's like folk who have attended dance/stage school taking part in Strictly...but thats another subject...

WHAT are they wearing? Reminds me of Miley Cyrus.

I like B.O. I can remember that and it's apt.

What they are wearing was hand made by them. It had to be you couldn't buy it in a shop 😅

Yes you can, a couple of boxes of Smarties would do it

I would prefer to have needles put in my eyes than to watch any of that garbage.

I find the auditions very funny but anything in between up to the final shows very untempting.
