What do we think of it ? who will win ? did the strippers deserve to go last week ? are the twins annoying or good entertainment ? Does stacey spoil everything when she talks ?
Scorpio
Its always something good to watch. I know its criticised for not being the best way to get into the music industry but i like it. I'm hoping Danyl will win although i think Lucie is great and a strong contender.

I loved Jamie Afro in the auditions but last week i thought his first performance was nothing more than i'd expect from someone with a voice like his. I didnt think it was anything special.

I was glad that the strippers went, not just because of their background but because their performances were rubbish. And i agree with Cheryl and Dannii that if they wanted to get away from their stripper background then they shouldnt have dressed like that. But saying all that i do think that the twins should have gone before them. They were much worse. But this is how the audience and their voting works.

Stacey is a great singer in my opinion. I loved her singing the Coldplay song but she does irritate me when she talks. Its not even the accent really, but the way she talks and behaves. I know she means no harm though. I'm sure she's lovely.

totally agree with most of the coments you made i would say 1 thing Danyl is a bit over confident and I think on screen it comes across as arrogance to some people, not saying he is like that in real life but he is coming across like that on the tv. This week is going to be diva week and have some vision of the twins either sing endless love or i will always love you and shooting up into the celling or something in the high notes. I agree people will slag the show off and complain it does effect the music industry but i say sod em lol it's entertainment at the end of the day

Exactly!

I've not found Danyl to be arrogant but i know people have said that. He did admit to struggling at boot camp after Simon said he had the best audition ever. But his performance last week was amazing. Shame Dannii said what she said.

I bet the twins performance will be exactly as you say. I'm very cynical and think that it was probably really a joint decision with the judges and the production team to put them through as, love them or hate them, they are gonna add to the viewing figures, even if its just that people will watch to see them mess up.

I'm looking forward to Cheryl's "performance" tomorrow. Firstly i heard it was gonna be done to a live audience but wouldnt actually be live to us at home. And now i think they're saying that she'll be singing live but along to a recording of her own voice. Poor Cheryl, she says she's too nervous. I think its bloody hypocritical of her to be honest.

Cheryl cole can't sing live she is not to good i wonder if the 2 judges will judge her performance ? I think the twins performance will be pure carcrash telly and everyone will be talking about it, I have to agree again regarding the voting we actually never see the votes and don't know if they are registered and it could be a thing that the producers keep the most entertaining acts not nessiarily (sp) the best acts trough whilst others are put into the bottom 2 to be thrown out by the judges.

What i m trying to say is these phone votes may actually be ignored and it could be a case that some one higher decides who is in the bottom 2 for that week

What i meant about the votes is that, although you may well be right, its mostly girls who vote, and not many girls are gonna vote for strippers. The judges said so themselves. Younger girls especially are more likely to vote for people like the Deadwood twins and Lloyd because of their looks, no matter how they sing.

I reckon the judges will comment on Cheryl's performance tonight but will they actually say that they think? Talking of car crash telly - John and Edward! Oh my god rofl.gif Totally awful but great to watch. Like a car crash lol

But back to Cheryl, her crying was a bit pathetic. Surely sat where she is, she needs to be able to take some criticism. But obviously not and i guess thats why she'll be miming tonight!

very good points j & e well what can i say apart from "OH MY GOD" i ve never laughed so much in my entire life for that 2 - 3 minutes they done that song I glad they got put through because i wanna see them perform big band next week it should be something again and i think simon made a good point that i would rather watch J & E than ricky anytime that flying without wings and r.e.s.p.e.c.t song where bad rank songs for him. I know it is a singing contest but surely as well the public need to be entertained to so J and E all the way lol

Fair play they can't sing point taken and it is a song contest again point taken also but i'm sorry call them what u like thats no odds to me but what they did for that 2 - 3 min song entertained me more than ricky singing r.e.s.p.e.c.t in fact i even went to the loo through his performance thats how good he was, I m saying its a entertainment show so why can't they stay in if they entertain people ? I mean that brother sister combo a few years ago they couldn't sing very well but they entertained the audience and they got to the final of the show.

I do see what you mean, i wanna see them again too and whilst i feel slightly sorry for Ricky because he can sing better than they can, he was never gonna get very far anyway. He certainly wasnt gonna win.

So what did we think of Cheryls performance last night? I thought it was ok. Not amazing but ok. Simon was always gonna say it was good, cos he's not gonna slag off the singing / dancing abilities of one of his judges. If he did, he'd look silly for employing them

Very true good points, i'm not to fussed on cheryl's performance to be honest i did think her hat was a bit to big and what she had on was a bit revealing, the performance was average i thought i didn't think she would ever blow us away or anything like that, i agree as well that what ever the performance cowell would of said magnificent etc.. i think this year he is becoming far to smug with his acts and he is getting on m nerves to be honest i m not enjoying his comments as much anymore because they are becoming predictable in some instances.
