You jinx the show. Fact.

[rosswatchus]

Eoghan and Diana are both really great singers. The Danny got voted out over Rachel was wrong!!, Danny sang much better the night he got voted out and Rachel didn't. I hope Rachel gets voted out next week. She's just another Mary J Blige! Why do I jinx the show?

Who do you want to win Ross?

[rosswatchus]

Eoghan or Diana, I really do not mind who because Diana is really cute, got a really cute voice and can sing well, Eoghan is a "cute boy" but as I've said before, he's seen as cute, like Leon Jackson, but unlike Leon, Eoghan can sing, and well at that. So I really don't mind if those 2 are in the Final because I'll be able to see the reason why Eoghan or Diana won. However, I think Rachel will win, she's annoyed judges, she's not in the least bit versatile so (because of the wrong result last year), why shouldn't she win?

You jinx it cos everytime you say someones gonna make the final they go out the following week lol....

[rosswatchus]

i say people r gonna make the final because i assume that some of the best singers r gonna go out because of last years result (one of the worst singers in the 12 finalists won - Leon), ((how much have you heard from Leon since last year? how many times have you heard him on the radio?)) so thats why I assume the best singers r gonna go out. I know I keep saying this but it's true. I dunno who's going out of the competiton next because one of the worst singers won last year, and the best acts are still in this year so i dunno what to think. X-factors voting system is just a big joke because of the following:

How did they make one of the worst acts of last year (Leon) win the competition if they didn't block the voting lines (for Rhydian)?? I've written further down that the voting lines were blocked for Rhydian
Again, considering last years results, how come the worst acts have already gone out in this year's competition - worst acts being the 2 girl bands which went out first 2 weeks.

How did Ruth end up in the bottom 2 a couple of weeks ago when she sang fantastically? was it that the wrong number of votes came up on the screen? yes .....i heard that somewhere (not word of mouth)

It's all just a bloody fix, if X-factor don't like how the votes are going, they can just block people from voting, that was proved last year because I heard and seen on the internet that thousands of complaints were submitted due to the fact that they couldn't vote for Rhydian last year.
I've got no faith in X-factor giving the best performer the title of X-factor winner because of all of these stupidities, which include blocking lines when votes go against the cutest singer - again, i'm relating back to last year.

PS. Basically, I'm not getting my hopes up for anyone as X-factor can do what they blooming like, if they dont like how the votes are going, they just block the lines

If it's all a big joke and you don't beleive in it, then why do you care so much and keep banging on about it?
Get a life mate.

I do have a life, a very happy one actually. I keep "banging on about it" because it's a competition, which is watched by people all over Europe, that most people like, that doesn't always show true results. How would you like it if you loved singing, you were a contestant, you got told by the judges that were one of the best singers in the competition, if not the best, and yet you still got voted out because the voting lines were blocked against you because there was a cuter contestant? Obviously, you don't see how big the X-factor competition is and how much it affects the contestants when results don't go their way due to the fact X-factor blocks the voting phones lines whenever they feel like it.

XFactor contestants should know what they are going into when they enter. The truely good artists that go on the show will end up with a recording contract anyway. Whatever will be, will be.

Exactly.
Rhydian got a recording contract, so what's the big deal? No pleasing everyone...

Same Difference have a new song out at the moment. You can watch it here: YouTube - Same Difference - We R One - Official Video - Sort of a High School Musical feel to the chorus.

Firstly, I agree when you said the truly good artists end up with a recording contract, but what dya mean the contestants should know what they are going into when they enter?
You said that as a response to the fact the Xfactor voting lines get blocked whenever they feel like it, hence Leon beat Rhydian. Contestants shouldn't have be worried about whether or not they get voted out because X Factor wants to block their voting lines. What you said sounds like the contestants shud expect their voting lines to be blocked against them if X-factor dont think they are the perfect model singer. Thats the jist I get anyway.

What I mean is that by entering there is only one prize on offer. The general public do not always vote on talent etc there votes are based on favouritism, what the media says and what the judges say. Therefore it is not always the case that the best acts win.
