Carrie :o That's a major promo slot for her, how brilliant :wub: The audience will not be best impressed though I'd imagine but it's not much different to Fifth Harmony last year.
So glad Carrie has a slot. There are going to be SO many "wtf who?!" trolls like Cee Lo and Nathan.
As much as i personally love Carrie, they really are scraping the barrel this year with the guests arent they :lol:
They really haven't managed to get an A-list star (well I guess Ed) this year so far have they.
Coldplay need to be next week's guest performers if they wanna give Adele a run for her money

Omg yes at Carrie getting a slot! I hope it'll give the song a good push and the album too.

Omg :o I'm so shocked but so happy! Absolutely adore Carrie and Heartbeat is such a beautiful track :heart:

Big chart boost hopefully and also looking for to Sigma/Rita :wub:

Scraping the barrel a little. When are we going to get a huge star perform? If Adele performs in the final, I guess all is forgiven.

Muse be it, all their money gone for her.

Has Carrie Underwood ever had a hit over here? I know Good Girl got a small push, but I don't think it led anywhere. Nice for her though.

No, but a few of her songs went top 200 (I Told You So/Blown Away/Something In The Water).

 

Carrie's only been getting a push in the UK recently. Blown Away (album) made it to #11 and she sold out the royal albert hall. Her latest album should be her biggest selling (peaked at #13) if her performance is percieved well.

 

Also, I'm not sure why it's scrapping the barrel with Carrie? Isn't the X-factor also meant to be supporting up and coming acts or acts that are just starting to get pushed in the UK? Granted she isn't a big star in the UK, but she's certainly got a niche here and an X-factor slot should be a great way for her to expand it a bit. :)

Why the basic Rita Ora?

 

If you haven't already noticed, she's a judge on there... :kink:

 

Carrie is a huge name in the US but less of one here of course, so this promo slot really surprised me but I'm delighted! She's had two top 20 albums in a row now and Radio 2 support her so I think this could work WONDERS for her. It's not scraping the barrel by any means, in the US she's the biggest selling American Idol contestant I believe. Incredibly excited as she's a massive talent and I really hope this can give her a much needed hit single!

I'm sure there are those in the UK who know of Carrie, but regardless, she's got an outstanding voice and surely is deserving of a place given her success on and after American Idol. In her homeland, she has gone on to have a career that all the contestants should want.

 

As for Rita... EW.

Oh deary me. Gone are the days of Beyonce, Taylor, Gaga, etc :lol:

 

Why should they constantly have massive names though? Are there many right now that even NEED a slot?
