I think Emma Bunton would have been the best choice personally as she is a close friend of Mel plus was at Judges houses with Mel and saw Andrea perform and seemed to be a fan of him from what I remember.

Why not cover Mel's place with Sharon? Of all people they've had on the show over the years they go with Tulisa....

 

Has anyone thought she may be the only person available at short notice? People are busy and have previously arranged plans, especially at this time of year.

That could have worked.

Yes I have but there were probably other people they could have had.

You have to remember if the voting is as the leak they will want someone to champion Fleur. Emma has loyalty to Mel and would champion Andrea.

 

I bet Tulisa will be there to say how Fleur is everything she loves in an artist. They have been careful to call Tulisa a 'guest judge' not Andrea's mentor for the final.

 

Tulisa is probably very easily brought too, I mean her career is a mess she is going to do anything Simon says for this chance and knows how the show works.

Stop analysing EVERYTHING.

Sammy basically just tells us what Sofabet have said or are likely to say, and to be fair most of what they say does have some truth to it but I admit it does get slightly repetitive! :kink:

You can construe anything so that it looks like they're pushing a certain contestant.

 

It makes complete sense to go with a past judge if the UK version and Sharon, Danni and Kelly are probably not even in the country. It's therefore between Tulisa, Gary and Nicole. They're going to go for a female because it's how the panel works and Tulisa has already appeared this series so it makes more sense.

 

Everythings not a conspiracy, it's extremely tiring to read. Yes the show fixes a lot of things but accept it and stop over-analysing.

Stop analysing EVERYTHING.

 

It is a show with millions of pounds invested into it, why would you ever take anything about it at face value? I sure as hell know if I was in control of something that had the ability to make me money on the scale X factor can I would do everything I could to influence things and have the outcome I want.

 

Also stop replying to me if you don't like my posts, you add nothing bar to tell me to stop having an opinion. Again you seem to not understand how forums work.

I'm one of the first people who will say that the show is full of fixes. However, I'm also aware the majority of the population know as well. It's extremely tiring to see in every single post on every single decision made by the show a fix claim. That's all I have to say on the matter.

So you are aware of something but don't want anyone to post about it as you have a very low tolerance level obviously and feel the forum should be posts you want to read. Well I cant help that.

 

I don't wanna read '(insert contestants name) slayed that' or useless posts like that that add nothing to anything but hey if that is what people wanna post then by all means go ahead, I don't feel I have the right to tell people what to post like you do.

 

Don't tell me what to post, offer an opinion by all means or ignore me. That's all I have to say on the matter.

You're not understanding what I'm saying.

Not surprised at Ben's voting domination if it's true. I'd be happy with him winning though, as I like his voice/think he's a nice & good-looking guy. :kink: Fleur will do well whether she wins or not, whereas I think Ben needs to win in order to have any substantial success.

I'm not surprised if the voting leak is true. They were very careful to never let Fleur perform early in the running order until the SF, where they had the unreleased track up their sleeve and the safety of having a bottom 2 so they could get Fleur to the final no matter what.

 

I'd say Andrea topped the vote week 1, Lauren week 2 and then from there on Ben has probably romped away with it.

 

I'd also think Ben would pick up the votes from peoples faves leaving, like I'd be sure any Jake, Jack, Paul, Jay, Lola fans vote transfer would have been mostly to nice looking, nice guy Ben.

 

 

You don't have to be rude. That's all I have to say on the matter.

I didn't start it, I think 'Stop analysing EVERYTHING' was very rude and condescending.

 

I've said all I wanna say.

Sammy, I think the point is that a little self-awareness with regard to repetition and constant conspiracy theories wouldn't go amiss.

This is pretty much all spot on. Don't understand why people are so baffled with Tulisa as stand-in judge. It makes logical sense in avery aspect. And we all know she'll be hyping up Fleur (as Mel has been doing). The only disappointment in my view is the fact she won't be performing. Would have fit into line perfectly (plus the song is a JAM).

Which is fine and I fully accept that and the way you put it. :)

 

If anyone thinks the way you do, a polite post as you have is fine and I'll take that on board.

 

I don't however accept someone telling me what or what not to post in such a way as another poster felt ok to do so and it is the second time said poster has decided to tell me what to post, the other time was 'shut up'.

 

P.s sorry for things being dragged off topic.

Well the duets seemed to be happening still according to this tweet :D

Interesting X Factor duets on tonight's show. Don't expect any Beyoncé blow away moments but some good song choices if not A-List artists!

:unsure:

 

Perhaps my post has been deleted, but I have looked through my posts and I have not found this comment. If I did post that, then I apologize.

 

However, on the posts today, I offered a polite explanation after my initial comment that is not telling anyone how to post as I am in no position to do so. If you had read that properly you would have seen it was the repetition that I was getting at, I never suggested at any point that you should never mention 'fixing' in any of your posts.

I DREAD to think who they've got for the duets :lol:
