December 14, 200816 yr Looks like JLS being in the bottom 2 was the best thing that happened to them on the show. Interesting how Alexandra came out of NOWHERE too.
December 14, 200816 yr Damn, i was just about to post these. Some shocks here then, cant believe Scott was second on the first show despite being awful. Cant believe how baddly both Austin and Laura were doing overall, it wasnt just the week of elimination they werent near the top then. Alex wasnt doing partically well neither then unilt around week 5 and Daniel was never bottom!
December 14, 200816 yr If Beyonce hadn't performed with Alexandra (or JLS had had a better artist with them) I reckon we might have seen a different result tonight y'know.
December 14, 200816 yr So if it went down to the public vote everyweek, with who ever gets the lowest votes going, Laura would have been saved :D But Ruth would have gone :( We would have been rid of Rachel a tad earlier aswell Who knows what would have happened to Austin & Laura if they had stayed? Why did Diana get the most votes in week 6, when she gave her worst performance? :/

Why did Diana get the most votes in week 6, when she gave her worst performance? :/ Sympathy vote. Just like Scott's so high on week 1. Some of the general public are so fukked up with their method of voting. I swear if a contestant cried every week no matter how good they were they'd walk the show.

December 14, 200816 yr Remember people didnt vote early on as they thought people were safe and would get enough votes
December 14, 200816 yr Very odd. Apart from Eoghan trouncing everyone in the first half, the results are all quite random. The contestants were all up and down...Makes you think if there'd been an extra week, it could just has easily have been a different result in the final.
December 14, 200816 yr Why did Diana get the most votes in week 6, when she gave her worst performance? :/ I know i keep banging on about it, but seriously listen to the MP3 of that very same song and :heart: :kink: Sympathy vote. Just like Scott's so high on week 1. Some of the general public are so fukked up with their method of voting. I swear if a contestant cried every week no matter how good they were they'd walk the show. But JLS didn't become favourites until they experienced the Bottom 2 and didn't leave the Top 3 since after that! I think Diana and JLS were a case of the die-hard fans actually voting to keep them in as they knew nobody was safe, I still voted for Diana on that week, she performed 'Yellow'. But that was because I knew she would be in trouble If I didn't vote! Hence the week after JLS were in bottom 2, the fans knew they would be gone if they didn't vote etc... (If you get what I mean :lol:)

(If you get what I mean :lol:) I said I'd never vote in a Reality show again a few years ago but as Diana was the only thing that kept me watching I ended up voting for her too to keep her in so I know what you mean. I warmed to JLS towards the end and me and mum both voted for them tonight so yeah it sucks you in. :(
December 14, 200816 yr Wow what an open year! It wasn’t until Listen that Alexandra became a serious contender! Surprised JLS won the semi final, I guess the Diana vote transferred to Alexandra which swung the final in her favour as well as having the best star duet. Glad Eoghan and Diana faded towards the end and talent won through!
December 14, 200816 yr Interesting thanks. Wow Eoghan was miles ahead in the earlier weeks :o LOL Scott 2nd in the first week! Poor Laura, she was my fav :( I knew her and Austin didnt get the least votes grrrrr. Daniel wasnt bottom once, well done to the guy!
December 14, 200816 yr I'm sure Eoghan had all his school mates voting on redial for about 2 hours odd every week :/ I really never understood the fascination with the little scab - his singing was so flat. Shame about Austin and Laura, they'd have made worthy winners but I do agree the talent was incredibly high this year outside the two medicore girl bands, Errughan and Daniel.
December 14, 200816 yr Interesting thanks. Wow Eoghan was miles ahead in the earlier weeks :o LOL Scott 2nd in the first week! Poor Laura, she was my fav :( I knew her and Austin didnt get the least votes grrrrr. Daniel wasnt bottom once, well done to the guy! i know shame and yes very impressive for Daniel
December 14, 200816 yr Louis Walsh hasn't a clue about talent. He's the one who originally pushed Pestlife and Boyzone into our faces. NUFF SAID! :puke2: He complained that Diana never danced when it's a singing competition. Why did only Aston take lead with JLS. Probably the others weren't good enough? He also sent Laura home when she has talent. The only thing I agreed with him was about Daniel. Although i'm far from being a fan of Beyonce, she was far better than Pestlife or Boyzone. Wow - Pestlife actually stood up. :blink: I'd love to have seen Pestlife and Boyzone up against Take That. No contest, Take That would win by miles. So now there have been two well deserved winner in 5 series. Leona & Alexandra. The guys have never come anywhere near. Last year Rhydian deserved to win but we got that moron Leon Jackson, the least deserved of anyone.
December 14, 200816 yr Well these figures prove the source/leaker to the Guardian columnist was telling the truth all along. I remain convinced that Simon sabotaged his own act Eoghan once he saw the awful record sales of Leon Jackson's album to ensure either a Alexandra or JLS victory. In the end Alexandra (whom I've never been a big fan of) was close to faultless on the Final night & richly deserved her victory.
