X-FACTOR 2007

Well, obviously the mix as before. I am still not sure about Dannii as a judge. But it was the right decision to bring Louis back.

So far, I can only think of 3 that have really stood out, But I guess we must have missed a few to make up for the "no chancers!!".

It still astonishes me how some of them really think they are good enough---or is some of it just for a laugh to get on TV ??

Personally, I would sooner swim the channel [and I do not swim], than stand up and sing in front of Simon Cowell !!

[Lena & Harry Smith]

By the look on Simon Cowell's face watching some of these dopey entrants Marian , we imagine he would sooner be swimming the channel, although when he told one contestant that she was brilliant and who we considered was quite mediocre, they may as well have Mickey Mouse on the panel. and then we had Fearne Cotton who was constantly popping up to say precisely nothing that made any sense.
Roll on next week, it can only get more mystifying.

[Marian]

Don't think Dannii Minogue particularly adds anything to the show. There is a report in today's paper that she and Sharon have already had a disagreement. I'm sure as always, it will get better later in the series.

Mystifying is the word....Lena/Harry.
What a performance on Saturday, and what a VERY, VERY, VERY rude girl appeared with such an attitude

I just love to see Simon Cowells face when he makes his comments


Angela

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Yes Simon's face is a picture isn't it Angela, but understandable sometimes. I mean, what about the 70 odd year old lady who impersonates a Hawaiian Guitar through her nose.

[ROBERT M.]

That wasn't you, was it Lena ??

[Lena & Harry Smith]

No not me Robert, I can play the comb and paper though, and the spoons.

[ROBERT M.]

So are you going to audition for the next series of X Factor then Lena ??

[Marian]

Apparently, Saturday's show had an audience of 10million viewers anyway, compared with only 4 million for the final of DanceX and Channel 4's Big Brother eviction show on Friday.
Marian

[Lena & Harry Smith]

No I'd immediately get booted off Robert. Simon wouldn't even recognise my famous song on the spoons .... The Sheik Of Araby

Marian, well according to the audience rating , not as many people as we thought can have P.Cs then. Specially on a Saturday night.

[Marian]

I'd love to see you play the spoons Lena. Maybe we could have a mini X Factor at the fan club meet, sounds like we have some talent amongst our membership ranks! plus a few rank outsiders, including me
Marian

[Angela51]

Well, I can quite honestly say. I am not a Fan of BIG BROTHER,
hate the show

X-FACTOR : I wonder if these contestants tape their appearance on the show, and on 'Play-Back' realise how idiotic some of them are, how can they think that they have talent

Let's see how the young girl of 15yrs (Paris) performs later



Angela

[mariana44]

I have yet to come across anyone who actually says that they watch "Big Brother"---including me!

[mariana44]

I thought the young 14 year old [in the first show]--I have forgotten her name--may have been Emily??---was a better singer than Paris.

[Lena & Harry Smith]

Yes, a mini X Factor Marian. Perhaps we could get Lois Walsh to come to the fan club meet . I'm sure after it being known to the public that Simon cringeingly asked him to return to the show. he could arrange anything.
Also, If anyone can play the SAW let us know.
Does anyone remember doing this ? A bended saw between the knees with a made up bow that made a noise like a cat being strangled, but that was an art if you could achieve it .
We can have Gray and Mike on Guitar, and Paul tinkling the ivories.
John's probably got some hidden talent too. for all we know he's a regular on the mike for Karaoke nights at his local.
On to Big Brother, we've only ever watched just part of a show one evening, so can't comment really.
It looks like being axed though.
