Default Xfactor new series

Once again Xfactor kicked off with another new series last night (the 10th series), and it's on again tonight as well. Sharon Osborn is back and a new double auditioning system is in place....... Xfactor was such a flop last year I defiantly can't see it improving. Regardless of this, I'll still be watching the dribble.....

If I didn't have two young daughters I would dismiss it out of hand as contrived tripe and bollards. However, I end up watching it and the people who progress do have talent. It does mean it will soon be Christmas. I hate Christmas, ban Christmas.

Nicole Scherzinger

Mostly the wife watches it and I just wake up to look at any fit girls that are doing it.

I assume Tulisa is no longer on there due to her coke dealing exposé, she was pretty fit too though fairly annoying

Actually glad they've gone back to the closed auditions! I'm clutching at straws as I haven't got any choice about watching it! At least I don't have to watch it live so we can whizz through all the crap!

I wouldn't mind so much if it wasn't dragged on until Christmas - they could find the top 10 one week, then the next vote for the winner - simples

But then they wouldn't make as much money with just 1 week worth of voting

That call centre worker was good tonight, I thought. May get booted out tomorrow, who knows.

Anyway, the original is far better as it should be.

Well I watch it and no one forces me to

However I think the current series is pretty naff.

But every now and again some real talent comes through. Leone for example.

And I got really disenchanted when they threw this girl out so that chav pimp from Essex could stay in.


I think that is simply fantastic

Ella Henderson sings Take That's Rule The World - Live Week 1 - The X Factor UK 2012 - YouTube

Ella was good. It was the stupid public who got her out. I hear that the Celeb Big Bro (I don't watch it, but I won't stereotype the ones who watch it, either) crown was won by some Geordie Shore chavette as well. Apparently she had a good heart, so British public voted her to be the nation's Big Bro queen. Next she'll be standing against our Cameron lad to contest for the prime minister's post, and probably will win it.

I like your honesty about watching Xfactor, without any cover of " It's ****, but the wife makes me watch it" cr@p. Just a light-hearted, harmless entertainment, isn't it. Some people here on SN show themselves as some cigar smoking, lobster chomping, deep fried Homers to slag Xfactor watchers off. They actually watch Discovery channel on their TV to see squirrel sh@gging instead, or argue with some Jap on their Xbox instead who's winning over them comfortably.

BTW Ella's parents are loaded, I hear. She should be able to make and market her record with her parents' wealth. I also heard that she got signed up by some label. I don't know what happened to that. We don't usually come to know what happens to most of them afterwards.

That Next of Kin entry should be made invalid IMO. They did achieve popularity at one point as an established band. If they couldn't maintain that for whatever reason, it should be up to them to make it better for themselves. It should be the never-heard-before diamonds from the dust competing in the competition imo.

I do admit that I never heard of that Next of Kin band before. However, you know what I mean.

Yes Ella is good, in fact I would rate her in the Adele class which is saying something

Just for you Turbohot here is a another cover with my little lad playing some cool bluesy guitar in the second half of the song. I have to say I didn't know the original but it does have over 100m views so that must mean something

Love the song, very well done; mainly your boy who is ace with his guitar, DL. Lucky parents to have such a talented son.
