X Factor 2008

Saskia · 2008-08-16 16:38:33

Anyone gonna bother this year? Is it played out? The winner and runner up disappeared without a trace last year. TV3 coverage starts in an hour. I might just be tempted.

I work at ITV and the votes have been counted.

JLS has won.

I'll get fired if my bosses know I leaked this...

Congrats... if JLS win, you'll also get a ban from this forum.

Leona was dull, but a far superior singer to Alex. There was no doubt Leona should win, her voice was/is amazing. Alex is a good singer not a great singer

i think that my problem with the producers, apparently alex can dance which leona couldn't so much, but ballads and belters is simon cowells game.
