X Factor 2010

[eFestivals]

would love to see wagner go all the way

me too ... who needs to run a facebook campaign to take the piss out of cowell and x factor, when voting for the least talent does it far better. lol:

aiden's twitter comment

did he say "I'm too grim to be famous"?

[eFestivals]

I predict that this weekend they'll all be shit.

No change there then.

hey, I predicted right.

Neil, is this you admitting to watching it?

[eFestivals]

it's me admitting to it being on the main TV each week. My head is mostly in the book I'm reading in a vague hope of not noticing what's on.

taking the piss? wagner was put on the live shows to be controversial and get votes. to make simon money. you think it was really louis that put him through and that simon is losing any sleep over wagner being there and diva fever or belle amie being out?

if Wagner goes on and wins, yep, Cowell will certainly be losing sleep, despite making money from the votes.

The whole point of the show is to set him up with new acts who the public will buy. If Wagner wins, then Cowell doesn't. It becomes the same thing as when people were voting for John Sergeant on Strictly - a pisstake onto the show.

matt rebecca and one direction are all certs for the top 3 unless the British public suddenly realise what is good music and no one wins.

corrected for you.

If Wagner wins it, like Jedward last year, then i think simon will see it as the end of the xfactor franchise, as its obviously got to the point where more people want to turn it into a farce and a joke, than people who take it seriously.

Wagner won't win it though. I reckon its a lot easier for a campaign to get a song to number one, than it is to get someone to win the xfactor.

I don't even watch it - and yet vote for him - I'm sure I'm not the only one.

I think the stuff from his band shows his voice off better - almost seems like a bad decision to go on it. I'd think that band could hold their own at any festival.

As for Tesco Mary -

at least mention that you won an Irish natonal TV singing show.

bet you anything that if that band played bearded theory or similar and removing all the xfactor stuff, neil would actually enjoy them

What are you failing to understand about my music tastes?

Just because you have no taste at all, don't go making the mistake that everyone is as empty minded as your simple self.

Cowell knew from the start that Wagner was basically a joke act, he also knows that a decent proportion of the public hate Xfactor and will vote for said joke act in order to undermine the show. If he didn't want this to happen, surely he wouldn't have let Wagner back in the show?

He's not stupid. I think he's happy for Wagner to go as far as we like, it's all publicity.

Was just sat next to Lloyd Daniels on the tube. He's looking very emo these days

is it only a one album deal that the winner gets? or how does it work?

if matt is good enough, winning the xfactor shouldn't be that bad for him. will young managed to do what he wanted to do after his first album.
