Simon Cowell is turning his back on one of his own X Factor acts, The Conway Sisters.

The judge became tired of the group's behaviour after they allegedly threatened to quit the show following a row over song choices.

"Simon and his team think The Conways are a nightmare," a source told the Sunday Mirror. "Their performances have been a disappointment - but the girls blame everyone else but themselves.

"Publicly he'll continue to give them his support. But privately, he has had enough."

i dont blame him! Why dont they just accept whats happened and move on? They're done crap, and its not his fault, its theirs.

Aww, i think there' ok, i mean i don't want them to win, but there's nothing wrong with them. They are the new Corrs, being that the Corrs are knowwhere to be seen anymore! They great and don't deserve all the stick they get.

I do feels sorry for them but if they are not good enough singers then they have to go if they want to be taken serious and stay in the competion they are going to have to raise their game and stop blaming everyone else for their mistakes.

eh there is at least 2 million who can use a phone... and we are sad enough to keep "our own" in the competition.. Irish love all that stuff...

me either but in Ireland we do have a younger audience who love their Westlife so they would vote to keep the conways in. I think even the irish realise they are S**T and don't deserve to be there.. I have to get the Irish numbers at the end of the show to vote either Brenda or Andy ...

I like Shayne but I don't think he has grown as much as Brenda since the start... Sharon was right, he was singing old men songs but I thought his version of "Cry me a River" was bad.. I perfered him doing Daniel Beddingfield song...

He was brilliant on Saturday, looked and sounded like a real pop star, the way he danced, and looked - excellent - only a few bum notes, but when your singing live what can you expect!
But he's great. Oh and his birthday is the same day as mine, so what more could i want! lol

Well every song he has done so far, he has pulled off, so i don't see why this one would be any different!

Siobhan

not really.. he didn't do too well on the Bryan Adams song.. again sharon said it.. he didn't have the grit in his voice for that song.. it was too soft but he is a fantastic singer

Jessie Wallace
14-11-2005, 13:43
It was Simon who said he needed grit in his voice for that song! But i think it sounded great, he made it his own, the whole point it that it's a talent show, not a soundalike show.

The Corrs cd was advertised ages ago on Irish tv... way before Conways were accepted on X factor.. I don't think they are treaten by them.. my god, Corrs are really good :bow:, Conways not :thumbsdow

Jessie Wallace
14-11-2005, 14:55
Oh Goss yeah the Corrs are great, but they ain't room for two groups the same style, and the Conways can sing, or they wouldn't have got as far as they have now, as in they would have made it to the final 10 etc...

I'm irish and i'm not voting for them. They are not the new Corrs, they are awful, Simon should not have picked them for his final four. The should have gone instead of Maria.
