X-Factor

We may have an archive thread somewhere about X-Factor somewhere?

I am not a fan of this programme, but sometimes it is on in the background while I am doing something else.

What on earth is going on with acts men singing in a woman's voice, and women singing in men's voices?
I believe I have seen 3 acts like it now.

I just don't get it.

Re: X-Factor

X Factor, oh dear ....

Gone is the spontaneity, the queue of hopefuls and never knowing what to expect next. Every moment is clearly choreographed and manage to the last second.

The 'judges' are also a bit odd these days with someone who just happens to have married the singer Robbie Williams and a little lad from pop group.

I only watch it occasionally these days.

Re: X-Factor

I used to love it , but not anymore , oh dear Robbie Williams and his duck billed wife , and the silly look at me dancing they do . It's all about them isn't it . Then the silly singing and Simons £ £££ signs in his eyes when a decent singer comes on .

Those poor hopefuls who are lifted up for 15 minutes of fame then dropped like an old newspaper

Re: X-Factor

I don't think I have ever seen it. I probably would if it wasn't for the judges. Whenever there is a change of line up, it always seems to include the celebs I hate most.

'Mental eyes' Williams and his other half just proves the point.

Re: X-Factor

I never watch it, I used to when it first came on a few years back but got bored. Give me variety like Britains Got Talent any day. I love the rubbish ones, they can be so funny.

Yes, I agree LQ. More fun and of interest than just one 'singer' after another.
