The X Factor - The Final Part 1



So it's the beginning of the end of this seires of X Factor

The X Factor - Celebrity Duets Confirmed for Final



The X Factor finalists have cofirmed who they are dueting with in the final over the weekend.

Matt Cardle will be singing with Rihanna.

Rebecca Ferguson will be singing with Christina Aguleria.

Cher Lloyd will be singing with will.i.am.

One Direction will be snging with Robbie Williams.

That's one hell of a lineup. I don't really get Matt and Rihanna being put together. Doesn't really work in my head. Rebecca and Chrtistina will be amazingly beautiful. I can just see it now. Cher and will.i.am was a given. Fianlly Robbie Williams seems an odd choice for One Direction too. They might as well just pick Liam, Harry and Zayn to sing with him and leave the other two at home.

This year's X Factor final will be bigger than ever. 2 2 hours shows will take place on Saturday and Sunday with several special performances including the winner's song. It was also confirmed today by Simon Cowell that each act has recored a different winner's single to suit them. Obviously. You have Cher Lloyd in the compeition. You can't have her singing some happy balland about the struggle she's been on. That's not what she's about!

The final airs at 7PM on Saturday and 7:30PM on Sunday.

The X Factor - Live Shows Week Nine: The Results

Time for the results

The X Factor - Live Shows Week Nine

Welcome to the Semi-Finals and what a snooze fest it was. 

The X Factor - Live Shows Week Eight

It's Rock Night and the acts are singing twice! Let's jump straight in and see who was good and who was not from each round!

The X Factor - 7 Acts, 14 songs

Creative director Brian Friedman has revealed that next week each act will sing 2 songs in next weeks show. 

While on The Xtra Factor, presenter Konnie Huq pressured him into revealing the theme for next week and he responded with "7 acts, 14 songs"

It is said each act will sing a ballad and an uptempo song. Personally I think this is bit is great. It'll be great to see Rebecca Ferguson and Matt Cardle sing an uptempo song!

Next week's show starts at 7:45PM and lasts nearly 2 hours. In the results show The Wanted, Justin Bieber and Nicole Scherzinger have been confirmed as performers. 

The X Factor - Live Shows Week Six

As this goes on, I get less and less excited. Nothing good or out of the ordinary happens. Nothing is spontaneous. It's all rehearsed and planned and well fake? I think I may just be getting bored of it, yet I still watch it without fail! Weird.

Moving on, it was Elton John week... Fantastic... Let's just look at the performances.

Best:

Matt is amazing! FACT. 







Rebecca is also amazing. FACT. 




One Direction are also very very good! 


Let's see who was bad!





Jog on, Paije. You are exactly like Treyc. Your there but nobody remembers you or even likes you that much, and look what happened to her last week. Do one!







I haven't minded Katie for this whole competition, but she's been in the bottom 2, 3 times and this was pretty bad I thought. Maybe it's time to go?







There are no words. 




So what did you think of X Factor's Elton John week? 


Make sure you watch the results show at 7:45pm with performances from Take That, JLS and Westlife!

The X Factor - Live Shows Week Five

Was it me, or was this episode a lackluster? The majority of the contestants weren't great. Good but not great. Another thing, the themes. How awful are they this series. For one they are very broad and and even with that the judges do not stick to them and find silly ways of making them okay. Total Eclipse of the Heart is a halloween song because it was the word Eclipse in it? Yeah, okay Simon Cowell. 

Okay so moving on tonight's performances. There was only 2 fantastic performances. The rest were either alright or rubbish. Let's have a look shall we?

Best:

There are no words to describe this other than beautiful. He has a very big chance of winning this and he could do it too. 






She's stunning. I wasn't keen at the start of the competition but she's such a star and sings every song perfectly and beautifully. Another big contender to win this. 


Worst:




It wasn't bad, I just don't really like her. And I'm pretty sure plenty of other people don't either. She's like John Adeleye. She's there but nobody remembers he is. I hope she leaves soon.




Great song, great staging, but unfortunately Paije is singing it and I don't like him. He's like John too. Do you remember him? Do you talk about him with your friends? No is your answer, so he should leave too. And with the rumors of a double elimination this weekend, these two should go! Along with...




... this! Ohmydays. He's like a scary perv. I couldn't even watch this. That poor girl must be traumatized and need therapy after this, or just a very long shower. Get him out! And Louis Walsh, please call him by is name. It's very rude. 


And the rest were alright, but not great. 


What did you think?


Make sure you watch the results show tonight where Kylie Minouge is performing!!

The X Factor - Live Shows Week Four

This will be controversial but Strictly was sooo much better than X Factor tonight. They didn't really embrace the Halloween theme and the majority of the performances weren't all that good!


Let's have a look at the best and worst performances.


Best: 





Stunning. I'm really love Cher Lloyd after this performance. Easily the best of the night. I don't understand where the Halloween theme comes into this but for this performance I don't mind. It was brilliant!




Rebecca never really stood out for me, but there's no denying she's an incredible singer. I would like to see her do an upbeat song but this was still fantastic.





I really like One Direction. They've been doing some great songs and I love this version of 'Total Eclipse of The Heart'. Well done lads.




Worst: 


 


I don't like Paige. I don't like his voice. 


I must mention other people but I wouldn't put them in the worst section. Mary, Aiden and Belle Amie were a huge let down which is sad. 


What did you think of this week's show?


Make sure you watch the results show tonight at 8 and check back here after.

It's rumored that it will be a 'wild-card' where the mentor of each category brings back someone they said no to at judges houses to join the competition but not confirmed.

So what do think of the judges choices? Some were controversial and some were a given. Who's your favourite? Who will win? Let us know!
