Fantastic thank you sparklefish! :cool:

Good. My parents took me to london for the day for my 7th birthday and I loved it, I was so excited. I wore this awful grey suit :hmm: and thanked them for giving me london for the day. *pukes* :oops:

Awww! My girl didn't stop thanking me either! :D And a special thanks to PH for being such a fabulous tour guide! :cool:
 
I just watched it as I was out last night, I can't feckin believe it.

Laura was amazing at the end.

Why does Louis always get the final vote, can't they mix that up abit. :mad:

Oh and did anyone think Mariah looked odd, she seemed very stiff and her face looked really bloated. :confused:
 
Who do people reckon the last three are going to be then? My money's on Diana, Alexandra and Eoghan, with JLS just missing out.

Can't believe Laura's gone now :eek: Mariah did look really stiff, may she was wearing a stiff corset,
 
Someone on Handbag lives near the X Factor house, and was waiting outside with her kids for autographs. She said Rachel was lovely, spent loads of time with them chatting, hugging and giving them her autograph, but "Diana looked at us like something she'd stepped in..."
 
I saw this for the frst time at my mums last night. None of them strike me as being anything out of the ordinary.

*shrugs*

meh
 
I think the judges were shocked that Laura ended up in the sing off. The cynical side of me thinks that she was always going to go if she ended up in the bottom two after the story broke of her dating one of the producers. If they hadn't voted her off people would have been calling it a fix.
 
I feel a bit sorry for her about that, apparently he is not one of the producers or an executive, but someone who manages the audience.
 
IMO I don't think Laura's got that great a voice in some respects, she's very weak in lots and lots of songs, it's no good belting out the massive notes if you can't sing a normal tune. And dating a producer, well well!! :hmm::D

I still want JLS to win, those boys are gonna go far :cool:
 
yeah, she was. i'm not gonna watch it anymore now she's gone. *that's* how deeply i feel about this. yeah.

I was only watching cause Dodgepot was. Now that he isn't i won't either. *thats* how deeply i feel about Dodgepot.

i think she's a perfectly good singer. her "over the rainbow" was great - and she's good because she doesn't always belt out the notes, and she can control her voice well. ruth just sticks it on full volume and belows it out.
 
Apparently JLS stands for Jack the Lad Swing :confused:
God knows why.

I think JLS are okay only when singing in harmony. The only one who has a decent solo voice is the wierd little guy. The rest all sounded appauling on their solos in that 'mariah carey' song - totally off key and cringeworthingly bad. I'm suprised no one else has noticed or mentioned this.

I've been thinking about the whole Laura thing and feel slightly less outraged now. I mean, she had an amazing voice, but she was kind of dull and not very likable. Plus she made a huge mistake singing that bloody Over the Rainbow song in the sing off. Ruth is always really clever with her song choices.

Anyway, the show isn't really about finding the person with the 'x factor' anymore. It's all about the judges. I mean, Louis just voted off the competition really. Laura was always going to be a bigger threat to JLS than Ruth.
 
I think the revelation in the papers that she is dating the person resonsible for the audiences on X-Factor didn't help.

Even if it did not make any difference to her getting in, people will always think that it did. Hence people not voting for her this week.

Well you're entitled to your opinion ;):p

Yes, clearly that's given her an advantage. :confused:

There is always scope for it though, and always speculation that it could help her. Which is why they say you can't go on things like this if you're connected to someone in the production company I thought? :confused::)
 
1. why are these poor people forced to sing granny music all the time.
2. why is the peaches geldof clone still in the running?
3. mariah carey was worse out the lot
