X-Factor

#1 Post by Cortone » Sun Aug 30, 2009 8:35 am

I missed this on ITV1, but caught some acts on ITV2 later. Funny, but... not convincing.

However, I got sent this link to a really fantastic performance -



To get those comments from Simon.... And he is so Cheryl Coles' type.....

If you didn't see it on TV, do watch it, as it will be everywhere. And I suspect he could be entertaining to watch as he goes through the series...

And this lad was great too - there's already going to be some competition here, isn't there?

Yes liked the second chap better!

Teacher apparently in a band and done quite a bit.

Think it is really bad tho the way they play to the public with all the hard luck stories tho, just waiting for the flood gates to open.

know someone who got to the third round audition with the producer like people. Apparently you have to get through the fourth one to get in front of the panel unless of course you are dreadful!!

Wont stop me watchin it tho :D

I normally love the show. But this new format is annoying me.
One of the guys brought a friend. who happened to be in Waterloo road
we already know from some of the newspapers that an ex s club junior and another boy fom one true voice have got through to boot camp.
my friend auditioned and yeah shes not amazing but she can at least hold a tune and belt out a few good songs yet she didnt even get through the producers coz she wouldnt make good television.
i might just have a personal grr now coz they did that to my friend but i don't know
its all got a bit to commericialised and OTT for my liking..
Yet they still have some really talented people and lets hope someone wins that hasnt already been given a chance and not quite made it .


And saying that....I'm still going to sit down every sat night with my tub of ben and jerrys and have a good old laugh at the poor people that think they are good. and a nice smile when someone really good comes on like mr teacher man!

and thats my rant over. sorry!

Still got BB 2010 to come and a Celebrity BB before the contract officially ends. I'm a little like you can't stand BB and totally fed up with trying to look interested when friends talk about it. Although to be honest not too many have done so this time round - Thank God!

Loved them both, they were amzing o/

The new format is annoying me though, i dont like it that they can have music to sing along with. it reminds me more of britains got talent.
