Posted December 5, 20168 yr 5 After Midnight Matt Terry Saara Aalto Who will win?? Themes likely to be: Contestant's Choice Duets - Song of the Series Winner's Song
December 5, 20168 yr Author Saara live in Helsinki right now!!! Dermot is there too, they have both been riding on Santa's sleigh! http://www.iltasanomat.fi/viihde/art-2000004894596.html Pictures of the audience: https://scontent-arn2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0...amp;oe=58F12FCF https://scontent-arn2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0...amp;oe=58F0C3B9
December 5, 20168 yr Author So far we've been treated to Let It Go, Chandelier and No Fear (!) with LOADS of fireworks *.*
December 5, 20168 yr Author And she finished with The Winner Takes It All! It's all going to look so good in the VTs on Saturday *.*
December 5, 20168 yr I can see maybe 5am and Little Mix, all of those do seem like good shouts. Nicole might just do it with Matt tbh :lol:
December 5, 20168 yr Author At the moment I'd go for duet predictions as: Matt: Louisa Johnson Saara: Nicole Scherzinger 5AM: Fleur East I know Nicole is Matt's mentor, but that is the type of bizarre thing X Factor would do and they can always use the wildcard aspect to explain it. And for song of the series, assuming they making it to the Sunday: Matt: Writing's On The Wall Saara: The Winner Takes It All 5AM: Try A Little Tenderness
December 5, 20168 yr Author Nevertheless, one rumour I've seen on multiple sites now is Saara with Adam Lambert singing "Who Wants to Live Forever". Adam isn't a big name but I always feel like he's appreciated by the general public as a performer when he appears on TV - his performance on X Factor a couple of years ago got rave reviews I believe - and that would be quite the duet! Saara and Adam tweeted each other a few weeks back, and Saara said Sharon is organising a big surprise for her for the weekend. Adam seems like the sort of contact Sharon would have, not that I believe Sharon cares if Saara duets with Adam Lambert or Abi Alton.
December 5, 20168 yr Holy hell I'd be well and truly scalped if they sang that together. Adam's vocal on that song is astonishing. That would be a serious moment.
December 6, 20168 yr Author The Sun are "confirming" the duets are: Matt and James Arthur (although James was originally lined up for Emily) Saara and Adam Lambert 5AM and The Weeknd With Sam Smith and Little Mix performing as guests only. The Weeknd is the wow name but Saara and Adam are such a perfect match, if Who Wants to Live Forever is true then that is the only potential Alexandra/Beyoncé of the three I believe. James and The Weeknd are more chart relevant but are less "all-out performance" as the X Factor audience would love.
December 6, 20168 yr Sam Smith performing as a guest? He has nothing to promote :unsure: Wow @ The Weeknd.. :o
December 6, 20168 yr Oh my god Adam with Saara is totally a winning combo. f***, this is actually happening :wub:
December 6, 20168 yr The Weeknd was kinda expected as he's been in France for the last week. Sam Smith?! As soon as I saw his name I was like "Yep, he is performing Writings on The Wall with Matt", but now I see James Arthur is performing with Matt.
December 6, 20168 yr I thought Weeknd might perform, but performing with a contestant feels very off brand for him! Adam is a great choice for Saara, he's never really had a hit in the UK but he's still a well known name and huge talent.
December 6, 20168 yr Adam and Saara will surely be an incredible MOMENT, but it doesn't feel like quite the calibre of guest star that's going to propel her to victory.
December 6, 20168 yr Why do the Popjustice forums think GEM are performing with 5AM?Ooft. Say You'll Be There again please! But yeah. Weeknd is a huge surprise. Maybe Matt singing Say You Won't Let Go will make the song listenable to me? :D
December 6, 20168 yr Saara will win the competition I think. Why do Little Mix have to come back again for fuck sake! Haven't we seen/heard enough of them recently? I'll probably have the TV on mute or take a leak while they're performing.
