    My 2 cents..
    PS - anyone else notice Dermot forgot to mention to vote for Diana after Miley Cyrus (shocking lip-synching by her.. was hoping it'd go back to the judges - but they'd just lick her arse anyways)?

    Miley wasn't lip-synching she is actually a good enough singer.

    Yep, completely agree with that.

    Alexandra deserves it on sheer talent alone, but I still think Eoghan will win it.

    It's Leon and Scotland all over again, NI will see Eoghan to the final at the least. I'm trying to think what would be worse; Eoghan or Diana winning? Putting that aside for the moment, even the thought of Eoghan/Diana final is depressing. But, Beyonce collaborating with either of them guarantees car crash TV.:D

    God the show is terrible this week!

    Alexandra was good (Although I thought toxic was awful) but the rest... DIANA TO GO!

    Though of course she won't :(

    I don't think she was lip-synching at the start but when the chorus kicked in I think she stopped singing live.

    What the hell, are the judges watching the same bollocks that we are?
    I thought Ruth was average in her 2nd performance, Diana was good and Alexandra was brilliant, but apart from that they were all absolutely muck. That little twat Eoghan was pathetic in the 2nd performance, I'd love if he went, but I'll settle for JLS going.

    That Diana one gives me a headache, cant stand her signing, shes trying to hard to be quirky and different, and is just weird. The clothes she wears and the way she walks around makes her look like a hobo, hope she goes out.

    I think either JLS or Eoghan will go tonight, both with 2 annoying songs, and poor performances, for me anyway. I liked JLS, but I dont like them when they do those slow ballad songs.

    Worst song of the night has to go to that girl Mily Cyrus, what a crap song, and she cant even sing that well by the sounds of things.

    Ruth and Alexandra were both very good tongiht though.

    There's some hope in Diana going as at least the judges started pointing out that it's all samey & off key at points

    Even the clip they show of Eoghan's first song is completely out of tune.

    Him or Diana gone would be only bloody marvellous. But I reckon it'll be JLS. Also, whats with yer man from JLS sticking the mic to his chin?

    This is how to be a real popstar, dancing to a backing track. Britney shows them how it's done.

    I'm no fan of Britney but it's so good to see her back to being somewhat normal.

    Have to say, she looks great.

    She's still a sham of a "singer" though :)

    Britney looks great - I forgot she was actually hot.
    But they shouldn't let guests on if they're just gonna mime.

    She's looking quite well and her miming is a lot more enjoyable than Diana's singing. Liking this.

    She went to say thank you and then nervously touched her mic, remembering that it wasn't on. Brilliant!:D

    Mutually beneficial publicity is the name of the game unfortunately. She has a new album to promote and they need a big name to get ratings.

    Are you saying that Simon Cowell cares more about publicity than he does about live music? :eek:

    She's a terrible dancer, mimed, and half her arse was hanging out of those shorty shorts? They gave her a standing ovation :confused:






    Britney makes me wanna be a better mother.

    i think they all looked like they were miming tonight it must of been a delay in the sound even when britney was talking she looked like she was miming..
    (obviously britney was miming, but i think there was some kind of sound delay thingy going on as well.)
    she looked great though
