1st Live Show

[Knightr634]

I would have preferred it if the 4 wildcards were competiting for a place in the top 13

Is a top 16 now going to be the norm?

The show was like the Eurovision Song Contest last night - it was insane. As long as the bonkers acts start to leave early on then fair enough

. . And I don't know if this actually has any substantial effect on voting (or not), but I was in a very busy gaydar chatroom last night, as I was watching it and someone suddenly said "right, who are we going to vote out" and the whole window was suddenly filled with multiples of one name "Katie".

But you vote to save, not eliminate?

 

[calicomoonchild]

She might (accidentally) win the show then, hehe . . (but somehow I doubt it very much).

I've been in Malaysia for 3 weeks - can someone tell me what all this "drama of last week" stuff and "bad press" blah is about?

Just get on Dailymail.co.uk.

Thanks but that still doesn't tell me where all the Cher / Katie hatred is stemming from?

Katie had a camp attack in the middle of her song and could not continue, citing it as "too emotional" . . she flunked the audition for that reason.

Cher, had some kind of sore throat (re "infection") and her voice was kack (she flunked her audition for that reason), she then burst out crying.

. . Then someone she bullied at school gave an interview about the "Mental Abuse" she had received at Cher's hands when she grabbed her hair in the changing rooms during P.E.

Gamu, on the other hand gave a note perfect audition, but failed to get through on the back off some bullshit reason of Cheryl's . . and now she is being kicked out the country because of Visa problems and faces a Nigerian "Firing Squad" for getting a high profile in the UK.

Cue, a weeks worth of the UK making pin laden "voodoo" dolls of Cheryl and sticking them in the oven at 200 degrees centigrade (Cheryl baiting, in other words).

Cheryl then said in the press that she was pressurised to drop Gamu due to Visa problems . . ITV revolted and claimed this was bollocks . .

. . So Cheryl was forced to come clean (tell the truth) that she was "unaware of Gamu's circumstance outside off the show" and that she had actually decided to drop her before her audition AND justified keeping the other two because of "past performance, when taken as a whole".

. . And so the first chink in Cheryl's "Nation's Sweetheart/ National Treasure" armour is exposed.

If suntan cream deflects the sun, does that mean "fake bake" deflects hatred en masse ?

Ontop of that, the X Factor editing made it look like Katie was chosen over Gamu in one of their "Both sit on the Sofa, one gets a Yes, the other gets a No" things.

Re: Sundays live show 10/10/10 (+1st Live Show)

I was wondering that, actually! The last time they had a double eviction, the bottom one went automatically, and then the next two were sent to a judge decision. I'd imagine it'll be like that again.

 

[Lost In Japan.]

I was thinking about this and what I think they should do (I can't remember how double eliminations have worked before) is eliminate the one with the lowest votes and have a singoff between the next two lowest.

 

[speedyboi]

I think thhey could eliminate the bottom four and still be in no danger of losing the talent.

That's exactly how it's worked before

There are plenty of other families being deported for the same reasons as Gamu but because they didn't go on X Factor they won't have a chance to stay. This Gamu bullshit has gone too far. It isn't any business of Simon Cowell to deal with her visa. It should be dealt with fairly and without any special treatment.

Gamu didn't get in. She's got bigger things to worry about now. If Katie and Cher are to go then it should be because they aren't as good as people are saying, or they aren't performing better than the others, not because they were chosen over Gamu.

 

[speedyboi]

He was only recaping for someone who asked, Gamu has clearly (and thankfully) been relagated to the back pages, her thread on here hasn't been posted in since the live show.

 

[Yuke1976]

I'm not sure if anyone else has mentioned this but Simon lost all credibility if he doesn't know that One Sweet Day was no 1. in America for 16 weeks, and is one of Mariah's biggest hit ever!

Here we GO!!

 

[Overdose]

Danni and Cheryl look amazing tonight! Danni especially looks ten years younger!!

It's no fun when it's not a car-crash.
