The two minutes that I watched were very awful and complete with the most condescending judges comments.

Tulisa is terrible.

All she could come out with was wittering on about "energy" and describing acts as "amazing".

I had the programme on for about 40 seconds, then i heard Tulsa (or whatever she's called) come out with that classic "you made that song your own" bollcock.

Turned it over then :)

I cannot believe that Amelia Lilly has gone. Easily the best of the girls.

The programme loses more credibility everytime and even then it was starting from a pretty low level.

The four girls are the best of a bad bunch so it's a bit stupid that one of them had to go, but they've got to create a bit of controversy because the programme is just so bad.

She was the worst of the four girls last night so it was only fair she went - although it was an abysmal song choice for her style of singing.

I'm a little bit in love with Sophie Habibis though, so I'm glad she stayed in...

Yeah, shame she went.
Thought it was great she couldn't say anything at the end, why bother when it was clearly bollox.
Kelly Roland had to go scooting after her in a fit of guilt.
Poor Amelia.

You wonder what the 'mentoring' adds to these acts?

If it was me I'd have given them a vocal coach to help with their singing and a few bob to spend on clothes. If you take Amelia she came on the auditions and judges house with her own image, she looked like quite a cool teenage girl that other girls would look up to, she was well spoken and confident and she sang really well. Then she goes into the X factor house, makeover people dye her hair and make her look ridiculous with make up, dress her in stupid clothes and give her a song totally wrong for a teenage girl to sing! I know we all take the mick out of X factor but you could tell to her it was important and she really wanted to give it a good go so no wonder she was upset at the end, she's been shafted by the makeover staff and whoever made her sing that song.

Absolutely spot on sally cinnamon.
They let her down badly ... and I think they knew it.
I only saw a brief clip of her effort, but it wasn't the cute, striking young girl I first saw. It was as though they had added another ten years to her age and turned her into a witch.

There ought to be a record label called 'Fook the X-factor' where such as Amelia and the guy with the veneered teeth, who failed twice and lost to that dreadful Frankie Cockend, could go and make a recording.
I think they would make a fortune in showing the X-factor up.

PS Matt Cardle singing a Gary Barlow song ........?
It didn't work for me.
Not one of your best that one Gary!

The guy with the veneered teeth was quite a good singer but I don't know who he would sell songs to. His image was a bit too over the top clean and polished, he looked too gay to appeal to young girls, and too gay to appeal to guys, he was probably just going to appeal to housewives and older women who thought wouldn't it be nice to have a son like that and I don't know if that's a big enough market, so X factor probably thought he wouldn't get many people actually inspired to phone vote for him. Frankie on the other hand, is not going to be good enough to make a career as a singer because he is pretty rank average, but he is someone they can use for 5 or 6 weeks to market to the teenage girl audience, they have been pushing this image of him as a stud who can't keep his hands off the ladies. I had to laugh when I saw something in a paper the other day saying him and Amelia were an item, and a quote from her saying "he's not actually as much of a bad boy party animal as people think"....course he isn't, the producers are just pushing that image, he's just a normal 18 year old lad that you could pull out of any college. Look for another story soon saying he's shacked up with one of the other girls now Amelia's gone, so they can do an article "Amelia's heartbreak" - hopefully she will be too smart and savvy to drop the quotes they want into their lap.

IMO the winner will come from one of the two scouse lads, but they both look like typical X factor winners that will have one Christmas number one and you will never hear from them again. If Amelia hadn't been on X factor and had just come out of nowhere like Pixie Lott with her original image before X factor messed about with her, I could see her doing well because young girls would have seen her as 'cool' and confident/independent, she was clearly in an ability range well above the other contestants.
