X Factor 2009!

Yeah, horrible little shits. Poor blonde girl. Still, she wouldn't have got through anyway so at least she has someone to blame now.

18yr old girl is great, as is Daniel from One True Voice.
 
I'm not enjoying this year half as much, I think it's the new format, and the poor editing.

Its a singing competition. Yet we hardly see any singing. Its all build up and razzmatazz with the occasional 10-30 second snippets of singing and say 2 acts that you manage to see all the way through.

At the beginning of the show we had 5 mins of crap, the titles, another 5 mins of crap before the programme even got started with any real content.

If I've heard a person's back story once i've heard it repeated and repeated a thousand bloody times. They spend more time telling you about what happened before with them than showing what happens next.

Whoever produced this series needs to be fired.

That woman who sang last though... wow. How many people have we heard singing that song and I've just gone to myself, why? Its a shit song. Why choose that shit song. So cliché to sing it in a competition like this. :facepalm:
Then bam that woman comes out and shows you how to sing it properly. All of a sudden its a great song and i love it.
 
Half the people that got through to boot camp wouldn't have done if they'd stuck to the original audition format. They sounded better because they had proper backing tracks etc but they didn't have that tonight.

Louis is such a fucking knob, those boys were shit. :rolleyes:

Me too :( I really, really don't like the new audience/early stage stuff. Hopefully it'll pick up now we're in the boot camp stage and nearing the live finals.

He knows that. They are just using them to create a little controversy. He knows they're a talking point. Plus they are probably hoping people will pick up a phone to vote them off, which is cherr ching money in the bank.

Picking okay performers than the public will be indifferent to makes no money. Subbing them for someone who will divide opinion makes voting cash.
 
Ah, thanks. It's a gorgeous song.

Actually, a friend lent me the Dreamgirls dvd and I haven't watched it yet. Will make sure I do soon. :)
 
Here's what I hope will happen:

Louis gets the groups
The loathsome Irish twins fall into this category
He invites them to fly to his gaff on his own private plane, separate from all the others
His plane falls into the sea and they get eaten by sharks
 
And I Am Telling You
Jennifer Hudson sings it gooood.

Oh and heeeere we go! Yet another black girl sings it. Bad mistake. Since that woman nailed it yesterday no one else stands a chance singing that same song as they'll seem crap by comparison... and she did. Even though she could sing.
 
Eh? Not with ya.
Fwiw I thought the XFactor girl sang it brilliantly. Such passion.
I love Jennifer Hudson singing it in that there film too.

Two women sang it last night - first was way better than the second (can't remember their names).
