    "Diana lost her voice on Tuesday and couldn't sing a note,"
    Didn't need to lose her voice for that to happen

    no hands action and no Diana :)

    If that's that case then she should leave instead of effectively giving herself a bye into the next round. Didn't that big dude have to leave when he got a throat infection and couldn't perform that week during Pop Idol?

    I really am not liking Rachel.

    Her attitude stinks - you'd think she'd be a lot more grateful to be on a show like the X-Factor. Even why Holly was talking to her on the Xtra Factor - she just seemed disinterested. Yeah get over it - everyone will be in the bottom 2 sometimes.

    I don't think she'll last this weekend.

    I agree totally! Hope you are right and she does go this week. I cannot stand that girl, hate her attitiude right from Day 1. Was so annoyed that she was saved last week.

    For me Laura, Alex & Ruth are the 3 best. I really like Ruth, but cant see her lasting much longer when she doesnt have a city or region to vote for her sadly.
    But if Laura or Alex were to win, i think they would become stars...the rest i just dont get it. Especially the whole Diana thing :rolleyes:

    Don't lose hope yet! She has fared well in the past two weeks despite not having a "block" voting for her so to speak. I can see her lasting beyond Daniel, JLS, Eoghan (but not if they are in the bottom two together, bloody judges would save him) and *gasp*, Alexandra.

    Am I the only one not a fan of Ruth?! Something about her has annoyed me from the beginning, can't explain it!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,835 ✭✭✭unreggd


    Nah she wont get past Alexandra

    I hope its:

    Daniel and Rachel in the B2 this week = Rachel Saved

    Rachel and Ruth in B2 next week = Ruth saved [for better performance and Rachel gettin too many chances/bein gay]

    After that it'd most likely be Ruth and JLS or Eoghan, with the latter being saved for bein "the best group" :rolleyes: and a cutie :rolleyes:[/squared]

    I cant stand Eoghan, HES RUBBISH! Hes not original and his voice is crap


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,604 ✭✭✭xOxSinéadxOx


    laura is just amazing


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,604 ✭✭✭xOxSinéadxOx


    I just remembered it's mariah carey week, YOCK!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,905 ✭✭✭✭Handsome Bob


    *******SPOILERS SONG CHOICES FOR TONIGHT******

    Alexandra Burke Without You
    Daniel Evans Open Arms
    JLS One Sweet Day
    Rachel Hylton Against All Odds
    Ruth Lorenzo My All
    Eoghan Quigg Anytime You Need A Friend
    Diana Vickers Always Be My Baby
    Laura White Endless Love

    I'm not convinced that Against All Odds is a good song choice for Rachel.

    +1 I really can't stand him. He can't sing and he is soo NOT cute

    Alexandra or Laura to win !!!

    Laura

    I've heard from a good source that Diana will def not be singing tonight!

    So it wasn't just a makey-uppy story in the Sun after all.

    I hate Laura. I hate her screechy voice and I can't see what's special about her.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,667 ✭✭✭magnumlady


    Shame Mariah isn't up for the vote:rolleyes:

    Yeah she would automatically qualify for the bottom two for not actually singing.:pac:

    EDIT It kills me to say it but that was no where near Ruth's best. Very shaky. Early days but she could be in trouble. I would have loved to have seen her get Against All Odds.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,005 ✭✭✭✭Toto Wolfcastle


    There was definitely something wrong with the way Ruth sang tonight. Maybe I'm wrong. The judges didn't seem to think so.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,233 ✭✭✭darkskol


    who sang before Eoghan quigg

    It was very shaky. I love Ruth but the song choice, or they way they structured the song, was all wrong. She never got into it and it limited her.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,005 ✭✭✭✭Toto Wolfcastle


    Rachel was awful. But yet again the judges skimmed over this slightly important part of her performance.

    So Diana gets to stay in even though she didn't perform...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,631 ✭✭✭jaffa20


    yeah and as much as i love Diana, this is not really fair on the other acts.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,667 ✭✭✭magnumlady


    What an awful week.

    Mariah Carey


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,429 ✭✭✭brettmirl


    It's piss poor alright. It's just very boring. They really need to mix up the themes a bit.

    Eoghan's been the best so far, and I'm not usually a fan of his.

    Cheryl and Simon seem to have a lot of tension between them.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,631 ✭✭✭jaffa20


    "Little miss shoulders"!!!
