By the way did they say anything at all about emily?
I missed the very beginning of the show for ca. 3 minutes, they never mentioned her after that.:confused:
well I watched it quickly on dvd so i needed to fast forward bits to just watch the acts
YAY Alisha is through :cheer:
Future Proof should have stayed, (NO)HOPE should have gone! :angry: Wrong decision by the judges. :(
Simon Cowell made the final decision about Emily Nakanda's future on The X Factor, according to The Sun today.
The 15-year-old was forced to withdraw from the programme yesterday, after a "happy slapping" video showing her assaulting another girl was leaked to the press.
The newspaper claims that several members of the production team wanted Emily to stay on the show, but Cowell insisted that it would not be appropriate.
A source explained: "Cowell told the producers that, although she is only 15 and it's a sensitive subject, she can't remain on the show. She is giving out a bad message to other teenagers who watch and may look up to her."
Well, to be honest if she had stayed on the show, she wouldnt of got votes and she would of had bad press and hate mail and probably stuff like that
we all know what Simon Cowell was thinking with tonight and it wasn't his head. Futureproof had potential, Hope are just a group of grubby little whores.
I think that comment is a bit harsh, BB!Quote:

Rhydian Roberts is still unhappy about the way he is being treated by X Factor producers.
The singer believes that executives have changed his image to make him look like an oddball on the ITV1 reality series.
"Rhydian feels he has been stitched up by the producers and says they have orchestrated it to make him look bonkers," his singing tutor Michael Barry told the Daily Star Sunday. "He thinks producers have dyed his hair, covered him in pale make-up and dressed him up to make him stand out."
Roberts has previously complained about being set up as the show's "pantomime villain".
Louis Walsh has defended his X Factor co-star Sharon Osbourne, insisting that it would be a huge mistake to axe her from the judging panel.
Recent tabloid rumours have suggested that Osbourne will not be returning for the show's fifth series, but this has been denied by producers on more than one occasion.
Sharon was also criticised by fans for her behaviour in the first live show of this series, which saw her threatening to quit the programme because two of her acts were in the bottom two.
"She was seriously considering walking away. It was not a publicity stunt," Louis told the News of the World. "But she knew she had to come back for her two acts. It's life, it's real. It's part Jerry Springer. And I stick by Sharon totally. She was loyal to me when I was sacked.
"They can't replace her because there's no-one else like her. And Simon Cowell cannot control her. That's what makes it fantastic telly."
Walsh admitted that he has been disappointed with new judge Dannii Minogue's performance on the show thus far: "She is not picking the right songs for her guys. After 27 years in the business I don't know why she can't pick better ones."
Louis also commented on reports of a feud between Osbourne and Minogue.
"Both want to be Queen Bee," he explained. "Sharon's Queen Bee in my book and Dannii is the new kid on the block. But they've sorted themselves out. I can see them becoming good friends by the end of the series."
Well I dont like, I think he s a good singer and belongs in the west end rather than the X factor, but I do feel sorry for him the kinda press he gets but I have to agree with him, the way he is presented on the show is weridQuote:

If Simon thinks Louis is an idiot why did he bring him back on the show, he missed the banter between him and Louis. I always dislike big band week and yesterday it was justified/ My thoughts on yesterdays performances.
Andy: Lacklustre and no personality, he's got to go within the next few weeks, the weakest on there. 3/10
Leon: To young for that song, but better than the last 2 weeks, still looks way to nervous though. 5/10.
Rhydian: Only he could have pulled this of, I love him, hes so original and amazing. Still think his Phantom of the opera performance last week will take some beating. 9/10
Same Difference; cheesy and annoying better then the first week, but I agree with Louis they shouldnt be in the final rounds. 4/10
Hope: So far there worst performance, the song choice was awful and didnt suit them at all, but they were in tune. 3/10.
Futureproof: I didnt think it was all that bad, I didnt think they should have been in the bottom two, and I thought they were alright. I love Richard. But there attempts at dancing were awful. 6/10
Niki: Her weakest performance so far, not really the sort of genre that suits her but she gave it ago and looked stunning. 5/10
Beverely: Best performance of the night along with Rhydian. She has one amazing voice. 10/10
I think Andy will be next to go.
As he is a trained opera singer I don't think Rhydian should be on X Factor, thought that was for amateurs who then get guided into stardom if they have talent and get through to the finals. Compared to Daniel, who looked uncomfortable before he was voted off because he did not agree with the song, Rhydian does look as if he loves the attention he is getting.
You know what it just says something about the public when we are voting for Same difference, who are really cheesy and sounds like they belong In thr 90's with all the other cheesy pop bands, when Futureproof and Hope ended up in the bottom 2
Grrrrrr I wish Hope went!!! They're so irritating!!!
I feel sorry for Rhydian, he is made out to look bad, but I think most people love it :p I know I do, he's so lovable hah!
As for Same Difference, they're awesome and must defend them :p They're so cute, and love doing what they're doing soo much, which is always good :D. I hope they stay a long way. But I don't think they should be in the final. That should be Rhyd, Bev or Niki :p.
Hope, Leon or Andy next pleaseeeeeeeeee :p.
Oh and I love Louis and Simons banters too. It's funny, I don't care if it is for publicity or something, it would be boring without it.
That Rhi what ever his name is was bizarre lastnight, don't like him much really, i don't really watch it but what iv'e seen he is bizarre
Andy: Boring, and weak. He has no personality, and looks like he doesn't want to be there 4/10
Leon: Best that he's done so far. He's looking more like he's enjoying it, and more confident. He's not the greatest singer in the world, but he's better than a lot of them! 6/10
Rhydian: I love him now! During the auditions, he was awfull, but now, he's a complete legend. He pulled that song off brilliantly, and is really entertaining. I think he'll be like G4 when this comp ends- Very popular, but not overly commercial. 9/10
Same Difference: They're so cute! Very entertaining, and pretty good singers too. It would be good to see them do something a bit different though- maybe slower? 8/10
Hope: These girls need a slap. What have they done to themselves? They think they have it, when they reeally done. Especially the tall one. I might even forgive them for their image, if they could sing. But they cant. The 16 year old is the only one who is faintly good- she's too good for that band. 3/10
Futureproof: It wasn't that bad, but not brilliant either. They're very forgetable, i can see why they went. They're not original either, and lack the star quality of a winning act. Not the worst though 5/10
Niki: I HATE this woman. I really cant stand her. Absolutly nothing about her is appealing to me. She looked like mutton dressed as lamb last night- e.g. DESPERATE. Her singing was pretty good, untill the end of the song. She CANT hit top notes. She's trying to follow in the footsteps of Celien Dion, and people like her. But they can hit the top notes, and not shout them. Niki cant. She sounds strained, weak, and looked a mess last night. And who would buy her single? She's a carbon copy of every other "diva"- theres nothing original about her, and she has no star quality whatsoever. People like Rhydian you look forward to, because they are entertaining and different. Niki is not. ANDDDD... 2 weeks in a row, she missed the top note. Learn ya lesson, and tone down the big notes- She cant do them!! 2/10
Beverly: Wicked performance. Not amazingly original, but she put a bit of her stamp on it, and looked like she was enjoying it. 8/10
Alisha: Well, she couldn't do much worse than the Wino's version, could she?! :p She was actually, pretty good! 7/10
Niki, Andy or Hope should go next.
maybe a bit strongly-worded but i get his point! i have hated Futureproof throughout this; i thought they were boring and hopelessly outdated. but last night's performance was great, the vocals were strong at it was more upbeat and soulful than anything else they've done. Hope on the other hand were all over the place as usual, and last night was definately their worst performance. but oooh look, guess who Simon picks to stay :rolleyes:Quote:

Out of the two though I think Simon should have got rid of Hope, they're just another girls aloud. Futureproof had loads more potential, i liked them.
I know what you mean about Andy he can be quite boring But I think Leon always looks so nervous and on edge
Andy: A pretty poor performance I think. He needs to up his game if he wants to stay in the competition. He lives near me so that's the reason i will keep supporting him. (He's really cute too especially with those puppy eyes!) 5/10
Leon: An ok performance. He seems to be getting more confident. 6/10
Rhydian: Brilliant! I loved his performance. He's unpredictable, he can sing, he can perform - he has everything - he has the X Factor! 10/10
Same Difference: They were pretty good, i thought. I quite like them just because they are different. They are cheesy, but in a good way, i think. 7/10
Hope: They are Hope less! Really awful. It's surprising they didn't show any flesh last night to get the male voters on side...that's the only way they can get through this competition if they impress the males by showing their cleavages! 3/10
Futureproof: They were ok. They really shouldn't have gone though! Hope(less) should have gone! They had a lot more potential and they were better singers, in my opinion. 6/10
Niki: Was I the only person who liked this performance?! I thought it was brilliant! I really like this woman, though i do agree with Abi, she isn't very original but she has an extremely good voice and her performance last night was very entertaining. 8/10
Beverly: Brilliant! This woman really is very talented and this competition is all about her. She really does shine on the stage with her voice and she is a worthy contender to win in my opinion. Her performance last night was outstanding. 10/10
Alisha: Her best performance so far. It wasn't too bad. I think she put a lot more effort into this performance. 6/10
Hope(less) to go next week please! Simon really did seem shocked at the result last night, but i don't understand why. It's a competition - one of his acts have to leave at some point.
Good to hear someone (partially :p ) agrees with me about her :DQuote:

I really like d Nikkis too, its good that she did something upbeat, rather than ballads all the time
LOUIS: SIMON'S HAD BOOB JOB
By Dan Wootton
TELLY judge Louis Walsh claims Simon Cowell has had surgery to give him the PECS factor.
The Irishman reckons his X Factor co-star has chest implants to look butch and compares his gleaming white teeth to "piano keys".
In fact Louis, 55, says ALL the other judges have gone under the knife. He insists: "They all have new t*ts...and lots of other work done. I'm the only one who hasn't had plastic surgery. Simon's definitely had a boob job. But Sharon has the best surgeon. She's going to give me her doctor's number.
"Honestly, I'm serious. I just want maintenance though, not everything like the others. I want to get really nice white teeth—but not like Simon's piano keys which are not his own."
But Louis reckons it's only Simon's teeth that are whiter than white, saying: "He's more vicious than Sharon and Dannii!"
His own battles with Simon on the ITV1 reality show are legendary but Louis says he refuses to be Cowelled.
"I can get him back for anything he says to me," he boasts. "It's water off a duck's back."
And he gleefully admits the judges' feuds and antics now overshadow the singers.
Clash
He chuckles: "I feel like I'm in a soap opera. What goes on behind the scenes would be the best TV series in the whole world. Anything can happen.
"I think sometimes we're more interesting than the contestants."
However so-called happy slapper Emily Nakanda, filmed on a mobile attacking a girl, stole the headlines last week. Louis backed the decision to boot her out. He fumed: "There is no place for any kind of bullying on X Factor."
But he thinks Sharon Osborne's backstage bust-up with new judge Dannii Minogue was simply a clash of two dominant personalities.
"Both want to be Queen Bee," says Louis, who manages Westlife. "Sharon's Queen Bee in my book and Dannii is the new kid on the block.
"But they've sorted themselves out. I can see them becoming good friends by the end of the series."
However he insists that Sharon's shock on-air resignation was no stunt. He recalled: "I didn't know she was going to walk off. I called her after and she said, ‘Everything just got to me'. She was seriously considering walking away. It was NOT a publicity stunt.
"But she knew she had to come back for her two acts. It's life, it's real. It's part Jerry Springer. And I stick by Sharon totally. She was loyal to me when I when I was sacked.
"They can't replace her because there's no-one else like her. And Simon Cowell cannot control her. That's what makes it fantastic telly."
But he thinks Dannii is struggling. He says: "She is not picking the right songs for her guys. After 27 years in the business I don't know why she can't pick better ones.
Of the current crop he said: "There's four good people in there this year—Rhydian, Beverley, Niki and Futureproof. Niki has an amazing voice. She could win the contest.
But Louis is back to his bitchy best summing up rival Strictly Come Dancing on BBC1. He sniped: "It's just boring. It's for older safe people.
"The judges are boring. They should get rid of them and get young people in. Bruce Forsyth is so old he makes Arlene Phillips look young.
"I definitely don't want her cosmetic surgeon."
------------------------------------------------
So Louis says Futureproof are one of the good people in the show and he chooses to keep hopeless Hope. I really think that he will manage Hope no matter if they win X Factor or not (heres hoping not). Beverly was amazing a great performance and as always the Riddler himself Rhydian i must confessing i'm warming to Danni as a judge and mentor i think she could maybe win this year i don't think she is struggling she is picking good songs
Sharon comments to Ryhidan annoyed me again on Saturday night. Instead of just admitting that his performance was bloddy brilliant she says that he is weird. The comments should be about their singing not personal opinions, you don't see Louis or Danni turning round to Hope and saying oh you look like a load of scrubbers. As much as I like Sharon I wish she would give him the credit he deserves.
hehe it was werid :lol: And most of judges this year keep forgetting about the singing and went on about dancing
Futureproof's Richard Wilkinson has claimed that X Factor contestants Hope "detest" each other.
Wilkinson, whose band were voted off the show on Saturday, argued that the girl group would split as soon as they leave the programme because of personality differences.
He told DS: "We knew right from the start when we were put together at boot camp that no matter what, we knew we would stay together as a group.
"Whereas with Hope, if they get put out of the competition, a couple of the members really do detest each other. Because we've heard them arguing!
"There's no way that if they were put out of the competition that they'd stay together. Raquel would definitely be out chasing a solo career somewhere."
Futureproof lost out to Hope during Saturday's showdown, with mentor Simon Cowell and judges Louis Walsh and Sharon Osbourne favouring the all-female act.
I believe that. I reckon the same thing. None of them wanted to be in a band, and unlike Futureproof, really didn't adjust well, so I feel.
Last year's X Factor runner-up Ray Quinn has been dropped by his record label after just eight months.
The singer came second in the last series of the reality contest, behind current chart-topping winner, Leona Lewis.
Quinn's debut album topped the chart, but Sony BMG has now decided to take him off its books.
The 19-year-old is reportedly looking at other projects. A source told the Mirror: "Ray is focusing on TV and West End stuff now. TV execs are even saying he could get his own chat show."
Haven't we got enough chat shows on TV already? :hmm: Presently we have Alan Titchmarch, Paul O'Grady, Parkinson etc, all featuring the same celebrities plugging their latest DVD/CD/Play in the theatres etc. Yaaaaaawn.
I completely agree. None of them are any good imo. I don't think he'd be very successful sat on a sofa interviewing. Who would want to go on his show??Quote:

Another chat show!!!!! I cant take this, everyone wants a chat show
Can I just ask why everyone seems to have it in for Hope :S lol they seem friendly enough to me. I wouldn't like to seem them win though, they're not very original at all.
I dont have it in for Hope, I quite like them, dont think they'd win though
I just find them annoying as people, but I don't actually know why! They seem a bit big headed to me I think, and think they're it.
Kate Moss is 'X Factor' obsessive?

Rex Features
Kate Moss' friends have claimed she is an obsessive X Factor fan.
The model reportedly never misses a show and harbours an ambition to appear in the celebrity version.
A source told The Sun: “Kate is a closet X Factor fan. She never misses an episode and records them if she’s out.
"She told Kelly [Osbourne] she does her own X Factor contests at home with her mum, daughter and friends.
"Kate is a wannabe singer who’d love to do what the X Factor finalists do...Simon should sign her up.”
Moss has duetted on tracks with Babyshambles and Primal Scream in the past. She was also given writing credits for four songs on the new Babyshambles album Shotter's Nation
