December 10, 20159 yr We are thrilled to announce that Adele will be performing on The X Factor Results Show this Sunday (13th December)! In a celebration of the best of British music, Adele joins Coldplay and One Direction on the bill, and is set to sing Hello from her record-breaking No.1 smash hit album 25, which was released last month. http://www.itv.com/xfactor/news/hell...yane8-vglmugzg GAME OVER!!! Sales will be epic following on from this - 'Hello' to return to #1 too please :P
December 10, 20159 yr I knew there was a reason for shit guests all season. Budget has been blown on Adele :lol: So the line up is Adele, Coldplay, One Direction, Little Mix, Fleur, Ben and Leona, right? Actually quite clever for Simon to flog so many of his own acts when he knows that people will be tuning in for Adele who may not normally watch and know about last years contestants etc.
December 10, 20159 yr Ohhh Adele. I guess that's the main line up now then, I can't see anyone else being announced.
December 10, 20159 yr Now I'm genuinely excited for the final, hope Adele delivers and it is a moment like the Brits was. Bit of a shame for me Simon has had to wedge Fleur and Leona in somehow.

He didn't need to wedge Leona in seeing as she is no longer signed to his record label. She is the biggest XF winner ever so I assume it is only natural for her to perform on the show.
December 10, 20159 yr He didn't need to wedge Leona in seeing as she is no longer signed to his record label. She is the biggest XF winner ever so I assume it is only natural for her to perform on the show. She also cant move 30k of an album these days.
December 10, 20159 yr She also cant move 30k of an album these days. Hence why she needs a promo slot.
December 10, 20159 yr But in terms of the show, she's still regarded as one of the best/biggest stars from the show... she's still respected by so many people, it's just people aren't aware she has new material! If you were to go to the average Joe and ask them when Leona's last single was, I'd guess they'd say 'Run'! And that's even with 'Echo' being a success!
December 10, 20159 yr The only thing of Adele's performance I'd like to see benefit is her single returning to #1 at Xmas
December 10, 20159 yr was thinking the same, if this could push Hello back to #1 and grab the Xmas #1... altho9ugh that could go against Louisa :)
December 10, 20159 yr Yawn to most of the performers aside from Adele who will undoubtedly be incredible *.* It would have been so much nicer if we didn't have the same acts come back each year for the final... shame they couldn't get Carly or Y&Y on instead -_-

Carly's album flopped harder than Leona's in the UK even though the former had the exposure of a top 5 single. At the end of the day, the X Factor is a franchise so of course they are going to use the platform to promote their artists.
December 10, 20159 yr I've forgotten all about the contestants with all this going on :lol: Will make up for it being not a great year (for me anyway) Really hope Ben performs well and his album gets a boost. Could have done without Adele but at least it on the Sunday.
December 10, 20159 yr She also cant move 30k of an album these days. so? she still sold copies and it debuted top 20.
December 10, 20159 yr so? she still sold copies and it debuted top 20. So surely you want to showcase the biggest artists on the X factor final and that isn't Leona by a long way and hasn't been for a fairly long time.
December 10, 20159 yr Little Mix just confirmed they are performing with Fleur East. And I have a feeling that's all they're doing. Ben Haenow has also been confirmed "with a surprise" Is it too much to hope that he will perform with Kylie? I've seen a few rumours about her being on. Wishful thinking I guess.
