Kai Rooney	When oh when are you lot going to realise that the public are voting for 'Jedward' as a joke! They are the ones having a laff at X Factors expense! My kids are, anyway - its all over Facebook - 'vote for the twins - its funny...!' - its just a bit of fun.... if you are looking for talented young artists of any genre, stop looking for them on x factor - even if they are good its a poisoned chalice...most people dont care who wins - its about car crash telly - isnt it?
JK2006	I agree Blue Boy - it is actually good, clever and populist TV which is the only point of it. It is not a music show and really should not be considered one. Which is why Leona Lewis looks like being beaten to No1 this week.
Blue Boy	X Factor is a television show. It's purpose is to find viewers and ratings. To do this you need quality content and a way of engaging the public. I'm sure Simon would like to find an undiscovered superstar every year and have the group song performed live. He lives in the real world and works with the material he has at his disposal and like him or not I think he does a good job. I don't particularly like the programme but as long as it gets the ratings and generates the column inches of promotion the producers are succeeding.
jr	Why does nobody say anything about the fact that the X Factor is supposed to be a way of finding ordinary people with undiscovered raw talent - when in fact what it actually is, is a medium through which to promote experienced singers/actresses like Lucie who already have agents and management? The public now find out that this 'shy girl who has never left a small village in Wales' is actually a well seasoned performer who had to turn down the lead in a Hollywood film before her involvement in X Factor! How about Leona, who had been at famous stage schools her whole life? Or Ray Quinn, ex Brookside!? Need I go on... RIDICULOUS! When are the public going to grasp this and lose interest!? The sooner this show is forced to be cancelled the better. The word reality is surely being used in jest. I think it is disgusting that we are obviously thought of as stupid and expected to swallow badly covered up lies. AND why is the group song always mimed!!!
giles2008	It seems even Will Young is kicking the programme now.Check out this link. www.google.com/hostednews/ukpress/articl...LBDt9JIq3pLKhFQloimA I agree with BR that the programme has not produced one lasting star and will never do so. Leona will suffer the same fate if her new album is more of the same breathy ballads and cod R&B jingles. Wonder what song the Grimey twins will put out for the Christmas number one? Has it been revealed yet? Wouldnt it be funny if nobody bought it??
