X Factor 2009!

[Kizmet]

I agree Kiz. The audience singing it better than him and helping him out made it funnier. Has to be one of the worst ever (so best ever!) auditions.

Aye.. up there with that chicken plucker fella and the one who came back dressed as a woman...

 

[girasol]

Ah, Lucie Jones - I hate that song (I will always love you) - but she made me like it. Amazing! Maybe she'll win.

 

[Badger Kitten]

Lucie Jones is a strong contender. But how artlessly styled was she? The production team got to her I reckon.

Broderie anglaise dress - wistful, innocent, folky yet saucy
Nod to bare foot with the flat gladiator sandals
Artfully tousled hair
Lots of eyeliner to rock it up a bit.

They'll pop some veneers on her for the final, and it's Shania Twain all over again.

 

[Scarlette]

Oh my god. Am watching X Factor now. This is the worst ever. First bit I watched, a chef who looked like he was about to throw himself off a cliff and announced he hated 'everything' about his life. But he was crap so haha at that. Then this couple who broke up three days ago, but who Simon made get back together on stage. The girl looked like she might cry.

I hate this crap.

That's not to say I'm not going to watch it though. Obviously. at self.

Ha chicken plucker guy!

well we might as well give up if the outcome is so obvious...

I don't have a crystal ball and if I did I would chuck it in the bin

I saw that couple that had split up. I don't like this audience thing at all. Even if something isn't shown on telly they are asking people awfully private and embarrassing stuff for them to discuss in front of a huge audience.

i hated that.. simon fucking cowell "why did you break up" " what did you say".. just pissed me off.. mind your own fucking business... then the insane pressure forcing them to get back together....

oh what a surprise....

Kirsty, from Trowbridge, Wilts, told the Sunday Mirror the pair were arguing again as soon as they got home after their audition.

'When we went home together to have a chat about things, we were back to our old ways and started arguing almost straight away,' she says.

'Later I found out he'd already asked out my best friend and was also seeing a girl in Tesco's.'

Kirsty said she threw Jack out of their flat and called him 'a p***'.

 

[girasol]

hehe, funnily enough, I saw that coming (see earlier post)

 

[Gromit]

I thought they might eek a few exclusives out of it first.

Story one, we owe our renewed romance to Simon
Story two, the split

They've missed out on some serious ok and hello money, surprised Max Clifford hadn't had a chat.

 

[Gromit]

By the way the Pentyrch girl really pissed me off. Her chance to reach the bright lights ffs.

Its nothing like how she was painting it. I used to have friends there and once dated a girl from there, who used to going clubbing every week not sitting in a rural field wishing for the bright lights.

Its a taxi away from Cardiff not the absolute middle of nowhere.

Only got a town hall and a shop is it?

Apart from the fact they have a couple of shops, a chippy, a post office, a couple of nice pubs and used to have a paintball centre but I think they moved to a bigger location. Short drive to Taffs Well, Radyr and the GIANT Asda at Croyton.

She made a tear come to my eye.

But then I get that when I hear Dolly singing it (but not Whitney).

Same here, but she made me kind of like it because she didn't screech or turn it into a vocal acrobatics type thing.

Sorry but that's bollocks. Those dresses are everywhere this summer, ditto glads and tbh anyone could put that look together with very little imagination. She looks like pretty much any other boho kid.

If the producers did get to her then I'm 100% sure it wasn't Shania they were going for.

The piss-poor editing of this programme is annoying me something chronic. Nearly every audition is cut to pieces and assembled from shots from fuck knows where. In one sequence Cole's hairstyle appeared to change in mid-audition. The production team seem to have just collected a series of reaction shots for each panel member and inserted them wherever they feel like.

 

[Me76]

This is really annoying me this series too.

It may be because I have recently read Ben Elton's Chart Throb too, so I am even more aware of the audience manipulation than I would be normally, but I do think they are goind slightly over the top this series.

Maybe some complacency setting in.

 

[Voley]

I'm not as into it this year for some reason. Dunno why.

 

[Looby]

Oooooooh, Daniel is back. I went to the first live show of Popstars the rivals and he sounded great live.

Must be really weird seeing Cheryl there when they started on the same show.

 

[Daniel]

Whys it hidden all the way back here?

 

[ChrisFilter]

Well done lad with aspergers. Incredibly brave.

 

[Geri]

lalalalala

Not all autistic people have Aspergers, do they?

 

[Looby]

How do you know that?

Oops, is that not common knowledge? It's been all over the magazines etc for weeks. I'll edit if you can too.

OK!

Aspergers is a form of autism, at the lower end of the spectrum.

 

[Looby]

Sorry, everyone that read that.

Ta Geri.

 

[ChrisFilter]

Aw, you gotta love Cheryl

 

[Daniel]

Aw, you gotta love Cheryl

Its hard not to

 

[Looby]

I paused it earlier when I went to get a drink and it was paused on her face. Her eyes are stunning.

 

[Daniel]

I love her smile, it makes me happy

 

[Geri]

So how do you know he has Aspergers?

 

[ChrisFilter]

Because there was an article on him in the paper. Blimey.
