its all fixed apparently anyhows..............

 

Well, anything 'apparent' in that sense doesn't really provide a solid evidence that it's all fixed. Saying that, the way Reggie and Bollie sang the final song with very obvious low profile, and with the usual and very predictable belting of it by Louisa, I can't rule out the 'fixing'. Saying that, Reggie and Bollie's low profile could have been because they well knew (anyone would) that they couldn't ever compete with Louisa.

So, yeah, it may all be a fix.

XFactor must be desperate as they let one vote for 5 times on line. I find that unnecessary.

 

Simples (I think!)


Those voting and watching the show are not necessarily the ones who will ultimately buy the music/go and see the acts/wet their knickers at the mere sight.


And arguably those who don't win have more creative freedom over what they actually put out.

 

Hm. Why do they bother voting for, then? I mean, you'd vote for the one you think is the best. So, why you won't buy that best one's record is beyond me. Perhaps they're just addicted to voting on TV. It won't surprise me. Sometimes I think that it's the same voters that vote for all voting type TV programmes. Perhaps TV voting is additive; like gambling on TV or on line. But they're not into buying records etc.


Sure. This may also mean that SyCo hasn't had it right; in terms of what the listeners would like listen to.
