Someone needs to pull the plug on this rubbish. The plain fact is XFactor is not a talent show. It is a show made for 'entertainment'. I know several very talented singers who attended auditions (at great expense). They were treated merely as tv footage. Told to be there at 8.00 a.m., they were kept waiting for ages and then herded around and told to wave, shout, sing and just act up for the cameras. The auditions were a joke. A 'producer' did the audition and only let through the nervous, very young, strange and in some cases 'special needs'. The talented ones were all sent home. It is a disgusting exploitation of both the talented and untalented. When you watch the actual programme and a judge says something like 'who told you you could sing' the fact is those people have already attended auditions where they have been put through as 'entertainment' but believe they have talent. The only people who have any talent whatsoever have been put through by agents. I am sure that many people who have been through the humiliation and waste and time of the 'audition' will not be watching.
By the way did you hear Louis Walsh say that Shane Ward was recording in LA as he was going to be a global superstar .....?!
the 'audition' will not be watching.
