^ Omg :o a couple of people on my twitter said that but I thought they were joking just based on the surname :lol:

Apparently Lizzy is through to Judges Houses!

 

Anyway according to Digital Spy's list, from the final 24 acts we have only not seen 4 of them I think (not including the manufactured groups) but I may have forgotten seeing a few names. 1 for each of the 4 arena episodes maybe? :kink:

Is this possibly where Mel's judges houses was filmed/is being filmed?

Mel's judges houses is taking place in Mexico! There's a photo of Mel (& Emma) with her category too.

 

Spoiler alert: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Bw9SqGJIYAAYLbO.jpg

So shes definitely got the boys?

Yes, it was confirmed at boot camp, they get their categories then.

*only Liam will be excited for this but still*

 

I KNOW YOU WON'T BY CARRIE UNDERWOOD IS BEING PERFORMED TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!

I've just seen that too and I'm very excited for that!

 

In other news, Steph Nala is finally being shown tonight and apparently "wows" the judges. Although she is shown "somewhat briefly" according to Tellymix. At least she's finally being shown and hopefully this leads up to her getting a big segment of the show during the six-chair challenge as apparently that is where she is said to be the stand-out performer and the judges' favourite according to people who went to it over on Digital Spy.

I'm excited too Joseph :kink: But it's one of Carrie's best songs so my expectations are very high!

It's one of my favourite Carrie songs too! :wub:

Omg it's by Kerrianne too :wub:

There’s set to be wild card twist on The X Factor 2014 this year, but this one is quite different.

 

Wild cards are not new to The X Factor (remember, that’s how we ended up with Christopher Maloney) but this years one is rather different.

 

In total there will be FOUR wild card acts, one in each category, chosen from the three acts who weren’t originally chosen for the live shows.

 

However, the judges will be picking the wild card acts for each other’s categories.

 

Cheryl, who has the Girls, will be picking the wild card for Mel B’s Boys, and vice versa.

 

And then Louis, who is mentoring the Groups, will chose an Over 25 act as Simon Cowell’s wild card before the roles are then also reversed.

 

The Sun newspaper (paid link) report: “This could see them pick a weaker singer who will get knocked out early – or shame their fellow judge by bringing someone back who was overlooked.”

 

It ultimately all means that this year’s series will end up with some SIXTEEN acts in the live shows when the finals kick off in October.

 

But for now it’s time for bootcamp, which kicks off on Friday on ITV.

 

Over the weekend we’ll see the four judges each work on their categories, picking the final six acts to take to judges’houses.

 

At least they've changed it up a little....

 

I hope they don't do that thing where one contestant goes from each category in week 1 again where Amelia Lily went in 2011! I'd rather just have some eliminations.

I think they'll just do more double eliminations, I'm glad of this change just so we can have an extra girl seeing as the final 6 girls are so strong. That means only 2 out of the 6 won't be making it, I hope that means Steph has an even better chance but if she only gets a brief mention again during bootcamp then I think we can say it won't happen - but if she gets shown a lot then there is still hope, especially with Steph seeming so positive on Twitter.

It'd be better if they had a different act added to their category like a Boy added to Cheryl's Girls and a Girl added to Mel's Boys just to switch it up a bit. I also hope they don't get rid of 4 in week one, its too much, maybe 2 per week for the first 3 weeks would be a bit less of a cull.

Lots of people over on Digital Spy are saying Lola is the girls wildcard (not sure where they've got it from but there were rumours she was out earlier in the week which would fit in with this wildcard) and everyone is coming up with their own theories! They basically think that considering she has been the girl that has been most focused on so far (along with Chloe Jasmine), maybe they want to build her up to a massive shock exit and judges houses causing a public outrage. Then when she is brought back as the wildcard she will have major public support into the live shows and achieve what Melanie Amaro did in the US. It sounds a bit far-fetched but I could sort of see it happening! And we know Cheryl has to go along with the producers decisions (I'm sure all of them do!) after she apparently had to send someone home at bootcamp for Chloe Jasmine after a producer told her to (according to people who were there at the six chair challenge).

 

Now watch Lola be the first girl through to the live shows in a couple of weeks! :kink:

Judges Houses confirmed

 

Louis - Tulisa

Simon - Sinitta

Mel - Emma Bunton

Cheryl - Tinie Tempah

No Paula?! :mellow:

On tonight's show they are going to be showing the girls category's six chair challenge for the whole show! I would guess at the boys being shown on Sunday with the other 2 getting less time and both being on the Saturday show but that's yet to be confirmed.

The overs seem more hyped than the boys and Simon has them so they may get their own show too, maybe the boys and groups together (a chunk of the boys will end up in that 8 piece group anyway :lol:).

Simon and Cheryl will both get a full show for their categories. Mel B and Louis will have to share a show.
