Surely his time has come?

Llloyd that is, surely tonight is his time to go.

LLoyd-Daniel-sings-Bleeding-LoveThe kids is yet to sing a song in tune (Bleeding Love literally made my ears bleed in pain) and has the personality of a sloth – I can’t help but be amused that he gets through week after week because teenage girls fancy him and no one bats an eyelid – but the country went into meltdown each time Jedward survived. In terms of singing talent I think Lloyd and Jedward were of the same level, aka crap.

The ironic thing being I remember Cheryl not puting through the hot American dude because he’d “get by on his looks alone”, yet she’s forever cooing over gorgeous little Lloyd and playing up to the tween vote to win him votes.

Annoyingly he probably will survive again, his fans will know he’s in danger and vote en masse whereas those who think their fave is safe as houses (Stacey? Joe?) will not vote as much and we may see one of them slip through the cracks.

 

Thanks for the memories…

…dear Jedward, the bubble finally burst.

I had a feeling that this week was going to be their last. I really couldn’t see who they’d be able to beat in the judges vote and knew they wouldn’t go to deadlock again after having done it most weeks this series.

john-and-edwardBless ‘em, they knew it was over as soon as they were in the bottom two with Olly – it’s the first time I have seen them not smiling and the ’save your life’ song they did was frankly terrible, how they ever got passed their first audition I don’t know (Yes I am a Jedward fan, but I am not deluded enough to think they can sing!).

They bounced back though – smiling and laughing and being gracious saying Olly deserved to stay.

Adios Jedward, I hope you get something out of having appeared on the show and you certainly made it a loss more interesting this year :)

 

Note to self…

…Saturday night are for staying in and watching The X Factor and Strictly Come Dancing, not going out to firework displays.

no_tvI missed both shows on Saturday night because I was out of the house, being all social and stuff. Then when I came to watch the X Factor on Sunday afternoon I realised it had not recorded and I couldn’t watch it on ITV Player as my Internet was running like a bag of crap all weekend. So I had to download it and it took several hours meaning I could not catch up before the results and thus – I found out who was eliminated around 3 minutes after it aired even though I was really trying to avoid spoilers.

Honestly with Facebook and Twitter and the fact it’s the most popular show on UK TV I was never going to be able to avoid it.

Sad to hear that my two favourites were the bottom two. I wonder if Lucie messed up, as I thought she was quite well liked.

I can’t wait to watch it now though and will be sure to blog again after I have seen it :)

 

X Factor Week 3

Big Band week…snore…always my least favourite of the themed weeks.

And it ending in quite a surprising result for the first time this series, I don’t think any one would have predicted it would be Miss Frank and Danyl in the bottom two. Not that I am personally bothered that either of them were there – Danyl didn’t deserve to be but maybe it will knock Simon Cowell down a peg or two. Simon has always been an arrogant ass, it’s part of his charm – but he really seems to have upped it a gear this year to the point of it being obnoxious. Over praising his own acts and being overly critical of the others (Louis showed him up last night when he asked him to qualify his criticism of Lucie’s performance which was awesome…and he spluttered and flapped around like a buffoon!).

Miss-FrankMiss Frank were by no means my favourites, I don’t think that shoving a crap rap into every song makes them nearly as original as they and the judges seemed to want to have us believe – but again there were others who should have been in the bottom two ahead of them.

Of the two I am please Miss Frank left, if only for the reason than ‘the one in the middle’ looked like a right miserable cow as soon as it was announced and she seemed to be in a major strop throughout the performance.

Moment of the night – when Dermot thanked Buble for not being a weirdo in the interview, after the disasters that were Robbie and then Whitney last week he was only saying what we were all thinking, heh.

Jedward live to fight another day :)

 

Jedward Love!

The-X-Factors-John-and-Ed-001OK I don’t care what any one says, I love John and Edward from The X Factor! Everyone is stamping their feet and demanding they must leave as they cannot sing and it’s meant to be a talent contest, but actually it’s meant to be an entertainment show and I personally would rather be entertained by their bad performances than be bored by some of the more accomplished but ‘no special’ ones. If I wanted to be bored I would go to an Oklahoma City attorney meeting, not watch The X Factor.

Jedward fan, and proud of it!

 

X Factor week 2

x-factorWow, last week I was really impressed and didn’t want anyone to go home – this week I couldn’t care less who goes.

I can’t believe I am about to say this, but my favourite act of the night was John and Edward, purely for the “What are they doing?” factor.

Loved Lucie as well and Stacey sings like an angel and is gorgeous but her personality really grinds my gears – other than that I thought they were all average at best and atrocious at worst.

What was Cheryl thinking giving Lloyd ‘Bleeding Love’, it had disaster written all over it. I thought Miss Frank were dire. Hated Rachel and Danyl’s performances and I hardly even remember the rest!

What a disapointment this week was, I hope that next week will be better.
