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.

Take That's Album Breaks Big Records

Take That's new album Progress has become the fastest selling album OF THE CENTURY! 

Ohmy.. The Official Charts Company announced the group's 6th album sold 235,000 copies in a single day! This is the biggest album since Oasis' 1997 album sold over 350,000. 

Take That, who were recently rejoined by former member Robbie Williams broke another record when their tickets for the latest tour went on sale. They sold over 1 million tickets in a single day. The band, which also consists of Gary Barlow, Mark Owens, Jason Orange and Howard Donald performed on The X Factor at the weekend. Check out their performance!

No change to Number 1, but Joe McElderry disappointedly made it to 6. I thought it would go higher! Not much change otherwise other than an re-entry for Usher.

What do you think? Did Joe deserve better? 

Strictly Come Dancing - Week Two: The Results

Time for the results! Actually before that. Robbie Williams is giving a cringey performance of 'Rock DJ'. He should not be allowed to dance. Back to business, in the bottom two were:

and the loser was:

Yes, Goldie and Kristina have been eliminated for the competition. I feel like Peter Shilton should have gone from these two, but more so, Paul Daniels should have been in the bottom two. 


What do you think of tonight's results?

Another new number 1! I haven't actually heard the song so I'm not going to give opinion on it. Robbie and Gary Barlow missed out on the number one spot too after a 12 year feud. 

2 More new entries this week also. Both I haven't heard. I'm so behind the times. Other than that the chart remains unchanged. Until next week. 

Robbie Williams and Gary Barlow have Shame

So Robbie Williams and Gary Barlow's long awaited duet has had it's first play in recent days and the video was released also. I saw it 3 times in an hour on the music channels today. It's a very good song.

I was never a fan of Take That when they were together originally. I was too young to be. I did like Robbie Williams solo stuff, but I had no idea who the other guys were. When they reformed, I did not like. Then they recorded 'Rule the World' for one of my favourite films, Stardust and I loved them! Downloaded both albums they had released since getting back together and really enjoyed them. On hearing that Robbie was getting back with the crew, I was pleased. It'll be great to see. This song is like an intro if you will to what's coming up from their new album which I am very excited for. 


What are your thoughts on the song and Take That?
