Blimey I should do more predictions with a hangover ;D Not that hard to predict though really. I thought the judges vote had normally stopped at this stage in the series. Not sorry to see Wagner go, but a shame Mary stayed What was with Cheryl's face when Rebecca was announced as safe first - she didn't look at all happy

Love your dogs Joyce!!! You don't live far from where my hubby grew up in Billingham, Stockton-on-tees, Cleveland. It looks pretty bad there!!! I ddn't notice Cheryls reacton Kim I did feel for Wagner and Louis, I thought Louis might refuse to vote like Cheryl I hated Simons remark about people trying to sabotage the show Well Simon, if you lot did your job and didn't put crap acts through, the public wouldn't vote for them It's not rocket science On a positive note, I'm glad Katie went ;D

Really pleased Katie went, and about bl*ody time. Yeah Kim I noticed that Cheryl didn't look very happy when Rebecca's name was announced. I wonder what that was all about. I thought Mary sang her heart out in the sing off, but I also thought Wagner sounded quite good as well. lol He's getting better and he gets voted off. ;D Loved the caller on xtra factor who put Cheryl in her place. Although why she can't answer for herself is beyond me. Simon had to step in and protect her as usual. Also liked the comment from the guy in the bath saying that Cheryl should take note from Louis about him voting one of his own acts off. The nation's sweetheart my ar*e. Most people I know can't stand the chavvy thug.

lol Thanks for that Joyce. That song is very catchy. I think he should release it, and of course I enjoyed it all the more with my two favs being in it as well.

Here we go again ;D Rebecca - 1st song was really good, I enjoyed it. The 2nd song was also good but I expected a lot more with Cheryl saying there wouldn't be a dry eye and the massive choir. Was it just me or did Cheryl seem over the top with praise for Rebecca this week Mary - I wasn't particularly keen on either song, she just shouts them in my opinion Matt - I absolutely love the 1st song he sang, the 2nd song was also good but you could tell he wasn't 100% with both songs, I just hope people vote for him. Cher - She sang both songs ok but the squeaky part of her voice is getting on my nerves and she still comes across as thingyy on and off stage. One Direction - I thought they did well with both their songs, especially the Rhianna one. I'm not sure how much of their vocals are theirs though and not the backing singers who I'm sure come on in the chorus. Bottom 2 - Mary & Cher (hopefully) I fear we might have a shock though

I'm glad this series is nearly finished, we know the show is contrived, but this year it's being openly manipulated Rebecca - loved both of her performances, but particularly her first, I love that song and thought she sang it brilliantly Mary - Awful, both songs, how the hell is she still there? As for Louis keep saying she's a role model for her age group - cheeky sod, I'd be mortified if I looked and acted like her As for the tears at the end Matt - Didn't particularly like either of his performances, but if pushed preferred the second. He'll be fine though - his fan base will see him to the final Cher - I cannot help but think Emperor's new clothes - who are the judges trying to kid? She was awful tonight. The second song I've either never heard or could not recognise with her singing it. One Direction - Again, they are what they are, a boy band. Thought they were ok, but why are the backing vocals so loud? For me, this was the most disappointing semi final yet. By this stage we should be wowed and some of the acts are no better than they were second or third week in. Predict Mary and Cher in the bottom, hopefully Cher will go and we can enjoy the final without the over praising of her by the judges Rebecca was my winner tonight, but still think Matt will win which I wouldn't mind one bit.

Agree Kim the worst semi's yet, really felt it for Matt this is the second week he has had problems with his throat, he will be ok this week but I worry about next week, I know loads with this bug and it deff takes longer than 3 weeks to get over. Rebecca - 1st song I liked but wish she would put some moves together, the second song lacked a bit passion for me. Mary - first song was ok, the second was a car crash Matt- Loved the first song, The second he struggled but was ok Cher - First song she was flat and out of tune, Second worst of the night 1D - Again can't help but like them, but the backing tracks are deff doing most of the work LOL @ Kim, I can give Mary about 9 yrs, I spend my days in combats,Jeans and Jods, walk the hills twice a day with the dogs, and still ride a horse lol, she should come and spend a week with me - no on second thoughts poor horse ;D Infact my 85yr old mum is more in line with Mary (sorry mum) but then again my mum likes 1D Thinks they are cute ;D No sing off so Mary to go, tho it should be Cher...peed off when Danii said she should have sang a ballad, and Cher said Na ballads have been done I want to do something new!!!!! God rapping was around before she was born

Rebecca- I thought the first song really suited her voice, and she sang Amazing Grace really well, but I agree Dee, there won't be a dry eye in the house? well there were plenty in my house. ;D Mary - I definitely preferred her singing Memories to her first song. There was no wow factor with the first song, but I thought she made up for it with her second. Matt - I thought he sang the first song well, but you could definitely tell he was suffering with his throat on the second song. Really hope he isn't bottom 2. Cher - Didn't like her singing Beautiful girls. But I thought she did better with her second song. 0ne Direction - Loved both of their performances. They are definitely safe this week. I noticed Simon gave them the pimp spot on BOTH songs as well just to make sure. Bottom 2 - Mary and Cher?? What was up with Cheryl's face last night? She looked really full in the face. She looked like she had had fillers with those hamster cheeks. ;D

Absolutely disgusted that Cher is still there First the four in the final farce, then the judges vote last night after the XF ITV site stated the one with the lowest votes went (very ambiguous, so they can say it meant judges votes ). I've heard Simon said he wants Cheryl to sing on Cher's first album on Xtra Factor, could this be why?? It is so obvious that Cher is first out in the final, what is the point of losing the publics' trust like this? This show has become an absolute farce

I agree Kim. It makes me so angry the way Simon changes the format just to suit Cheryl and her "girls". First with Katie and the amount of second chances she was given, and now this farce with Cher. Simon obviously got wind that Cher was last in the voting , so decided to change everything at the 11th hour so not to upset chav girl sat to his right. I wouldn't be surprised if Cher gets to perform last on Saturday nights show and gets to sing with the biggest star, just so she is in with a chance. What is the point in anyone voting, Simon decides who wins, not us. Mary totally outsung Cher last night in the sing off, and should have been saved. I was very surprised that Danni chose to save Cher as well. She never has anything positive to Say about Cher's performances, so what was that all about? I am so glad this series ends this weekend, as it hasn't been enjoyable to watch this time with all the fixing that has been going on to save Cheryl's acts week after week. It's just turned into the bl*ody Cheryl show. Ok rant over.

Lol Chav girl!! ;D ;D Yes I am in total agreement, it really is a joke of a show, even more so now Wagner has gone!!! As much as I have never liked Mary I do agree she sang better in the sing off but that doesn't count does it, in fact I wonder why they have one I think Danni probably chose Cher because she was told to, just like Louis is told to Matt to win, as much as I like Rebecca and it is unfair on her but I do not want Cheryl or Simon to win
