The X Factor Blog: Gary Barlow and The Overs and Out

So Melanie left in the second sing off of the series. Does anyone care? She was a good singer but never really threatened the competition. By this rate Gary’s work will be over in a few weeks. Kye had a terrible show with a mash up of some Eminem songs without the rap; surprise surprise it was rap but with a capital ‘C’. Then there’s Christopher who everyone seems to hate but if the tabloids are anything to go by he is topping the vote every week.

We also had Rylan and some dancing pandas, which I kind of enjoyed. But I’m still not convinced he’s actually that entertaining. He’s no Jedward or Wagner is he? Unfortunately he is the closest X Factor has got to a fun act and tabloid headlines so he has to stay.

We were all slightly surprised, weren't we?

Thinking about it, Rylan was the most memorable act this week. District3 were terrible and deserved to be in the bottom 2, they won’t last long.

Week 2 and Lucy’s still got her guitar, I want it gone by Club Classics week. She sang Gold Digger. It was weird. And that strange look she was giving her dancers? Well, that was uncomfortable.

I can’t even remember anyone else it was a boring week mostly due to the boring theme ‘Love and Heartbreak.’ For goodness sake, REALLY? In other words, “just sing a ballad,” or “we really can’t be bothered too think about a theme.”

I still haven’t got a favourite contestant, but Nicole is my favourite judge by a mile. Also I want more drama, dammit! AND NO MORE GANGNAM STYLE.
