    Even the judges were embarrassed reading that script

    Only the Brexiteers who don't like foreigners didn't like that.

    Audience were booing. Is simple going deaf ?

    Simon wants him in as most of the other acts are boring.

    That guy will be in the live shows.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,410 ✭✭✭CH3OH


    Did they say she was only 17?
    A hell of an investment to travel so far to audition

    She s BRILLIANT. And she's only 17. !

    Every act they've liked is terrible! They can't hold notes. Shows they are looking for a very particular type of viewings winner!


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,762 ✭✭✭✭dubstarr


    I like her


  • Registered Users, Subscribers, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,589 ✭✭✭✭antodeco


    Did anyone catch how old she is?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,836 ✭✭✭✭freshpopcorn


    Will she sing a Whitney Houston song next?

    This is when I'll miss Louis Walsh:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 48,254 ✭✭✭✭km79


    Is it bad that I'm missing Louis Walsh AND all the rally bad acts !
    It's like they are trying to push that there is still a load of talent out there .........and yet there has not been any standout

    Watched last Sunday's tonight as well
    The Irish guys voice just does not do it for me
    It's weird to watch . He won't make it through

    Anthony was a bit less wired .............I do like his voice though
    But it all feels very staged .
    What's the bets Louis is his mentor ........he is hardly gonna send him home !!!!!

    Which brings me to the judges again.......
    Simon is Simon
    Robbie ........is Robbie
    His wife .....pointless and just no credibility
    Louis.......I just can't take him seriously . And that voice!

    Bring back the real Louis
    And dare I say Cheryl !

    Anyone else fed up with Robbie always putting his feet up on the table, so irritating.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,121 ✭✭✭TomOnBoard


    Watched it last week. Fed up with how the panel were so up their own asres! Really missed Louis W and Sharon. WTF is Robbie's missus doing there? Poor format IMHO..

    It was literally the one way Robbie would sign on. Am I right in thinking he’s not that big of a star that he deserved 2 judges spots?

    I agree he's not. However, Simon loves him...

    Like, if they wanted partners, why not put Ozzy on along with Sharon... I'd watch that!!!

    Boards admin - can I change my username. Not liking this series at all.
    Robbie- annoying,
    Robbie wife- can’t remember her name, totally pointless,
    Louis- liked him in 1D but he’s overshadowed,
    Simon, older, fatter and more scripted.
    I feel like a lot of the contestants are pre-screened. Eg that girl from Philippines- xfactor must have paid for her families flights, your average phillipino family wouldn’t afford flights for the whole family to London, just for an audition.

    That irish fella Patrick James was asked to audition.

    Heres his account


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,565 ✭✭✭K.Flyer


    But it's nothing new. James Arthur was invited as well if my memory is correct.

    Two thirds of 2017 X-Factor finalists invited to audition
    Back in 2015 it was reported that only two of the Top 24 acts at judges' houses weren't invited to audition.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,836 ✭✭✭✭freshpopcorn


    There's an article in The Sun about people getting offended on social media about how people got offended with how Robbie asked the trans guy his birth name.

    in my opinion, by announcing that he was once a she, they are inviting discussion. Being asked his previous name, part of discussion.
    Now, if Jorden Peterson or Ben Shapiro had of been one of the judges....


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,753 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    I don't care what people think, Ivo was the best from last night, he was at least memorable. The whole weirdness of it was a big plus.

    A terrible waste of air time and taking advantage of Kiki for the benefit of a laugh

    Taking advantage of someone for a laugh is part and parcel of X-Factor and has been from day 1. Not saying it's right or wrong, it just is.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,719 ✭✭✭jluv


    I'm not going to lie but when I saw Kiki and heard her song choice I went "winner"..how wrong could I be:(

    The reincarnation of Aretha.

    Think of people who queued for hours and were good who were overlooked.


  • Registered Users Posts: 33,753 ✭✭✭✭RobertKK


    Boring and slow.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,410 ✭✭✭CH3OH

    She is bringing a lot of sex appeal.

    Robbie could be getting a slap from his left soon

    Her vocals weren't good.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,509 ✭✭✭tinpib


    She did herself proud, that lass.


  • Registered Users Posts: 13,762 ✭✭✭✭dubstarr


    I didnt like her at all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,410 ✭✭✭CH3OH


    A few vocal lessons and a I see a big future in front of her
