ReplyDeleteX-factor:entertainment or torture. I lost faith in this show as soon as i first saw John and Edward perform last year. 2 hours of stale torture is what i endured last night in watching this show, for a number of valid reasons. Firstly i believe that the public have grown to love watching the attempts of ordinary people become superstars and are still waiting for the moment a winner becomes an actual superstar.
ReplyDeleteBut they dont. Joe Mcceldry. Ring a bell anyone. He was the 2009 X-factor winner, but yet somehow nobody remembers him or his music. Sad really.Another reason that i believe X-factor is a failure is because of Gary Barlow. Gary is unsuccessfully attempting to substitute Simon Cowell's signature rude,blunt and sarcastic judge personality. I believe Simon and his famous white shirt can never be replaced; he was the reason the public watched the show, they didnt care about the contestants, they wanted to see him.
Kelly Rowland:finally came out of Beyonce's shadow. Kelly's personality somehow comes across as bright and colourful;she is the judge every contestant looks forward to hearing positive comments from: rubbish or brilliant. She is the most optimistic out of the 'fantastic four' with her eye catching dresses and American smile on her face. One thing is certin- she will give the contestants false hopes in the upcoming weeks.
Bad thoughts automatically come up in my head when'X-factor' is heard, not only does it have the most ridiculous title ever but, why does a contestant have the need to tell us a story before they audition?why is it being shown on our televisions? and WHY?. I just dont see how millions of people watch the show. Apparently its not a fixed, overrated and a predictable show. Puzzles me anyway.

ReplyDeleteX-factor can really get in my nerves. It is completely ballshit. As far as I am aware, x-factor is making people a laughing stock; there are some people with good voices- obviously not as good as Rebecca black- there main aim is to make people laugh. How would I know this? Let’s just say I have my ways. Ok I’ll tell you, As far as I'm aware the singers have to go through two auditions before reaching the judges, some OK singers don't make it that far but the really awful ones are kept in so people can laugh at them on TV. Who do they think they are?
Also, who does Simon Cowell think he is? He thinks he can get any chick (girl) he wants from the show. What I don't understand is what gives Simon Cowell and co. the idea that they can decide on people’s future and whether the people are good enough. What does Cheryl Cole know about music? Fair enough she's in a band, but if you watch her audition on Popstars the Rivals, she couldn't sing a note in key.
This "talent" show is just flooding the charts with identical manufactured pop sh*t, where most of the acts can be guaranteed to be forgotten in time for the next series.
Strictly Come Dancing. What can actually be said about it, It come on every Friday. Or the fact that they take celebs and put them to dance with professional dancers and in the end of the week you get people like Craig Revel Horwood saying giving bad criticism to people when they actually just performed a decent dance routine. I actually feel sorry for the professional dancers who through the training routine footage – seem to have a hard time in teaching these nitwits some true dancing-and they can’t even perform a good dance at the end of the week. I don’t understand why when a good dance is done they get straight tens, win the show and go home. No it Has to be 5, 4,6etc. They don’t look at the good dancers only the shit ones who can hardly move their feet; That’s why it’s so easy for the judges to slag them off by saying:
ReplyDeleteYour dance was too stiff, I can’t feel the movement, you stumbled etc. When in actual fact what they’re trying to say was that the celebs were Shit at dancing and the audience can clearly identify this. They give it all the lip and no action.
The professional dancers – Who actually can dance – have to pay the price by embarrassing themselves because “ Craig Revel Horwood “ could not see the light of day in their dance. So the professional dancers have to suffer because that dawns on him that he is a bad dancer and an Even Shitter teacher. I Truly believe that these people get embarrassed and the end of the day it’s their reputation on the line, either they could be the winners and say they won strictly and have their names remembered by someone who gives a damn or be forgotten and only remembered as the one who danced with Edwina Curry – The annoying politician who thought she was wild-. Which is better X factor or strictly I can only think. Which is Worse

ReplyDeleteIt is time for the live shows. The judges have been told that they have to eliminate one of their contestants. First in the hot seat was Louis Walsh with the Over-25s. He sent through big-lunged Sami Brooks, novelty gnome Johnny Robinson and crazy-eyed Kitty Brucknell. That meant singing squad die Jonjo Kerr was de-mobbed, a tough but fair decision that saw Walsh booed in the studio. Head judge Gary Barlow went next and was the most business like. His was also the easiest call. The weakest Boy by some distance was James Michael, whose Beatles cover was wet, lame and more like a bucker than a prime time pop star. Frankie Cocozza, Craig Colton and Marcus Collins live to see another day. Groups mentor Tulisa Contostavios claimed she was too upset to play ball, delivering her decisions in a robotic, rapid-fire tone rather than leaving the usual portentous pauses as she put through Rhythmix, The Risk and Nu Vibe. Essex duo 2 Shoes were sent home, because of their loud mouth and constant bragging of how they love to put minty fresh tea bags, in their shoes to not make them stink of disgusting vodka from a night out. The toughest decision was saved until last, Kelly Rowland dabbing at her eyes throughout, With the Girls, it was always to be between pink-haired 16-year-old Amelia Lily and barmaid Sophie Habibis, as Misha B and Janet Devlin were waved straight through. Rowland sprung a surprise, keeping the unmemorable Habibis. Amelia Lily can only blame her poor song choice and unflattering makeover for leaving the x factor, Amelia looked like she was going to punch the ******* day lights out of her. Let’s hope that Next week will bring some better news.

ReplyDeleteIt was all about arses on x factor "We have worked our butt off to get where we are today," says new judge Tulsa Contostavlos. Our butt? She shares one? But, in spite of this anatomical handicap, I think Tulsa’s going to be OK, as a judge. She's a bit lippy, speaks her mind, and that's a good thing. Also lippy is cheeky-chaps contestant Frankie Cocozza from Brighton. Cheeky in every way, he comes on and drops his trousers. Seven girls share his butt – he came back from holiday with their names tattooed on his cheeks."Can I just say I freaking' love the UK," says other new judge Kelly Rowland. "He came on, he showed his ass, literally, you got to love that." Kelly can be number eight if she likes, says cheeky Frankie. It makes me feel weirdly proud that Rowland freaking' loves the UK because we show our asses, literally. I think Kelly's going to be OK too. She's got attitude. She brings the beauty to the table. And the booty – her own ass isn’t so bad. And come on, she was in Destiny's Child. Cheryl who? The final new judge, Gary Barlow, is less impressed by cheeky Frankie's tats. How's he going to explain them to his grandchildren, Gary wants to know. Frankie wants to know what his grandchildren will be doing, looking at his bum? Ha, take that, Gary Barlow.
