Well on X Factor tonight is the friend of a friend. Her name is Sally and she apparently got down to the last 10 but didn't make it after that. She was asked back because she had "a story" (she had been on it before) . Her boyfriend of 2 years was leading a double life, he was also married and she didn't have a clue. Apparently she sang a Rhiannah song and Simon hated it and told her to sing someone else's guy, contrived much??? Apparently she said it wasn't set up There is also a young lad called Louis from Doncaster who has got quite far apparently but I don't know whether he's featured tonight.

I'll look out for those 2 then tonight Dee. Don't forget it's on tomorrow as well this week. It annoyed me last week when the 16 year old lad who had a good voice was told that he was old fashioned, and Pixie Lott "eventually" changed her mind and he was put through. It was a joke. They have put through people in the past who can't even sing, but yet here was a lad who had a great voice and was put through agony just so they can make good tv. lol The two friends who fell out on stage were funny weren't they? I recorded that episode while I was away, as I didn't want to miss her punching her in the face. I wonder if they are still friends? ;D

Dee I didn't notice Sally on the main show at the weekend. Would she have been on xtra factor instead? Omg I couldn't get over that Chloe from Wakefield. What did she look like? She didn't have a bad voice when she started singing, but god she needs a make-under. It was in the paper that she's a hooker as well. Classy bird. There were a few good ones on last night. I really like the mixed race lad who wore the hat and had the 2 kids. He had a great voice. The 2 gay guys who did the tina turner number were good as well. I did feel for the pub singer guy who sang Higher and Higher when they didn't put him through, as yes there wasn't any spark there, but they could have let him sing another song or give him a second chance like they have done many a time before. lol As soon as he said he was a pub singer and told them his song choice, you could almost see Simon and Louis thinking "Steve Brookstein" in their heads, and hence their decision.

No, I watched Xtra Factor too and she wasn't on there and neither was Louis, his name is Louis Tomlinson. Apparently he auditioned and was told to form a group He could be on at the boocamp stage though. I will watch out for her at bootcamp but it doesn't look like she'll get much airtime if she didn't make the live shows. I couldn't get over that Chloe's eyelashes, she looked absolutely ridiculous!!! Yeah in the papers it said she was a hooker on £10,000 a week, yeah whatever! ;D

After watching last nights show Louis hasn't got a hope in hell of winning. I feel sorry for him. He always gets stitched up, and Cheryl and Danni get the best category's again. Why Nicole suggested moving the age limit from 25's to over 28's is beyond me, as the youngest category's were the strongest anyway, and the over 28's now has only one great singer imo and that is Mary who works in Tesco Matt Caldwell is also one of my favs, and he would have been great for Louis if they had kept him in the over's, but now he has been moved to the boys. I just think it's so stupid why they changed the format. The boys category is definitely the strongest imo as I like Matt as just mentioned, Aidan Grimshaw, Nicolo, Marvyn, and Tom is also good. In the Girls category I like Gamu, Rebecca and Cher. But I'm not sure if Cher is a bit of a one trick pony. As for the groups I like The Reason. Diva Fever weren't as good as they were on their first audition either. The ones to watch at this early stage should they make it to the live shows are Aidan, and Matt. I think both have a great chance of winning.

What with one thing and another I only saw the first audition show. But I watched Saturday and Sunday. It is all so blatantly fixed - that nonsense about raising the age limit to 28 Only two who really stuck out for me were Gamu and Matt. Not keen on Cher at all, she looks too much like Cheryl for my liking. Thought Paije (?) sounded a lot like Luther van Dross or Alexander O'Neill. So obvious the two manufactured groups will go through to the finals

Yeah I agree, totally scripted, I just want the live shows to start, they rush through bootcamp too quickly, they should spend less time on the auditions. I couldn't believe Cheryl got the girls, is it just set up for her to win every time? I think the girls & boys category is pretty strong.I'm not sure what the guy with the hat on was called, but he was very good as was Gamu, I still like Cher though ;D

What a strange show The over 28's were like a spoof category, poor Louis Still serves him right for having Sharon helping him - silly woman can't move her botoxed, cat like face ;D Groups category is obviously fixed, you can bet your life the two manufactured bands will go through, I'm hoping FYD will too. Girls is a farce too. Katie and Cher completely messed up, but I reckon they are through, with Rebecca I hope. I didn't think Gamu was as good as she was previously. Boys were the strongest category for me. I still like Matt and Paige, can't decide out of the others though. Warning - The betting sites and DS are absolutely riddled with spoilers, I've been very good and not looked - I'm glad the results are on tomorrow night, not sure I could have not looked for a week

Isn't Sharon looking peculiar? Yeah definitely too much filler and botox there. Aww I do feel for poor Louis. His category is dire. It did make me laugh though as each contestant walked in and began singing. Sharon's face said it all. What a bizarre looking bunch. ;D I have no idea how that House husband guy has got as far as he has either, as last night he sounded awful. I think Mary, Storm and possibly Elesha or the black guy will get through from that group. I'm not liking Katie from Cheryl's category at all. She messed up in her audition and then again last night, but I have a feeling she will get through as well It's obvious Cher will get through, I agree Kim. Out of the lads category I really hope Matt and Aidan get through, and with the groups I hope Bon Amore (Sp) get through over Hustle, and I would like fyd and the Reason to get through, but I think also that the young lads will get through instead of The Reason.

Gutted Paije and Gamu didn't go through Pleased that Matt, Rebecca and FYD did. There are rumours of a wildcard from the rejects next week though

I couldn't believe it when Cheryl put through Katie over Gamu. What was she thinking? Gamu had a brilliant voice and Katie messed up her song yet again, but goes through. >: On a happier note, I was very pleased that Matt and Aidan went through. So if one of each reject gets picked by their mentor, and then the public decide on their favourite, one judge will have 4 acts and the others 3, is that how it will work Kim? Oh if that's true, I would like The Reason, Marvyn or Gamu back. lol I couldn't really pick a fav from Louis's rejects I'm afraid. ;D

It's all speculation atm Caz. Don't know how it's going to work. There are rumours of a fourth category mentored by Sharon (booooo!) or Nicole with all four wildcards in it. Categories stay the same with four in each. Public vote on the four and one judge gets 4 acts. But it's probably none of the above ;D The rumoured wildcards are: Paije , TreyC (not Gamu ), Diva Fever and Wagner Cheryl was seen visiting TreyC, Simon Diva Fever, rumours of Louis visiting Wagner are on Facebook. But that is what it all is atm, rumours

Yeah I heard about Cheryl and Simon visiting both Trey C and One of the lads from Diva Fever's homes, and if this is true about TreyC getting the wildcard vote and not Gamu, I think there will be even more of a public outcry, as surely now with all the focus being on Gamu not getting in, she has to be her wildcard??? lol Looks like it could be third time unlucky for Treyc. I do like Diva Fever so I would be happy if they were picked. I didn't really get Paije tbh, so not sure about him, and Wagner also. I wasn't so sure about some of their makeovers. I thought they had turned Mary into Dawn French with her hair and lippy. Matt's transformation was good though. I think Cher would look so much better if she looked her age, and got rid of the harsh makeup and false eyelashes, and had more of a flattering hair style.
