X Factor contestants
Is it just me or is the sight of a lump of a girl and her mother who looks like she belongs to a "whimisical travelling" community, telling Simon Cowell he "doesnt have a clue", and saying "you've ruined my daughters life" really sum up all thats wrong with this country?

Not really my sort of programme but it was on, I was watching it and was pi$$ing myself with laughter.
Amazes me that their families dont have the heart to tell them they are crap before making total fools of themselves.

What about the geeky looking kid.
He was good. Very unexpected indeed. And Im sure will go far as the the woman watching it round my house all went "ahhh hes so qute" and im sure the rest of the female population will think this too.

No,what summed up every cliche in the book,so much so I started to think they were plants from the anti-Chav league,was when the mum said;
"I will feet him,I will feet him................ya better than im"
"I will feet him,I will feet him................ya better than im"

funny I was just about to post this..........
I couldnt beleive her or her family basically saying her life was over, that was all she wanted to do and that basically he should feel obliged to let her through so that "her dream in life" was ruined??????? People get a grip! Stopping pinning your hopes on crazy dreams and building yourself up like nothing could go wrong! People are the same with the national lottery - I swear there are tens of thousands of people basically pinning their hopes on winning the lottery because they are too stupid to work their way out of their own misserable little low paid go no where lives, its sad.
And as for the parents on their knees begging..............have some pride ffs!

The picture of the kids falling to the floor while she sobbed,the family begging on their knees,the curly perm with granny bald bits,the gruffy voiced mum threatening violence,ete,etc etc,it was almost too cliched,must have been a set up.

I felt slightly sorry for her.As talentless as she was,it obviously meant a lot to her.Poor lass.
The sight of her freinds begging was rather pathetic though.

It's sad to see people get so disillusioned into thinking they are so good. As for the mentioned girl, I cringed as soon as I saw her (like Cowell) I knew she would be hopeless.
But for her family to encourage her. How can THEY be so disillusioned as well? I know it's easy for people to fancy themselves and trying out their luck, but for the family to think that she really is that good. I mean encouraging your kids is fine, but you have to be able to tell them they are crap at something to make them realise that the dreamt goal will never happen in a million years.
They do seem to typify the kind of people we hate in the UK so much at the moment, and as dba says it seem to clichéd to be beliveable, but I do think they were genuine applicants but may have been playing up to the camera in hope of public compassion or in hope the press buys their story with the following headline "Cowell Ruined My Life", in your next News of the World or Sun

Watching it at the moment (by default: I jump on the PC, missus jumps on dodgy TV programmes). Don't know whether to laugh or cry......feel very sorry for the ones who think they're going to make it and have their dreams shattered by Cowell and crew....and then I snigger a bit.....mwooahahahaha

what about the couple that got chucked off by security then tellin cowell that all he's good for is cleaning windows! what a joke, not keen on the bloke but he does know what he's on about.

Everyone is spot on.
The only one who I actually had any sympathy for was the older chap doing the John Lennon thing. Telling him he was barking was a little harsh, as he clearly wasn't a full chess set.
Next week looks to be a corker though - someone chucks a drink over one of the judges.
It's all worth watching just to see the egos of the chavs get a kicking.
Simon.

I think miss stirrup earings was possibly the finest example of chav....well......ever! she had the permanent wet hair look, and miserable face, big earings, ill fitting and wrong style clothes etc... she clearly thought she was a stunner! and so did her family.
I will say that her voice wasn't awful, but I don't think it was good enough. She could hold a note, but it was just boring monotony.
