xfactor post/rant/whine

so every year this pile of shite is upon our screens and as much as i hate the over produced manufactured simon cowell/fuller owning game of life - i am drawn in.

sure - some new boyband with children who have dreamt of this opportunity in all 16 years of their lives and own a topman account card will adorn the walls of the same pre tween kids who have just torn down their harry styles posters.
a lad/lady with a nice backstory and a bundle of nerves will sweep the hearts of a nation x3.

to my post - i only enjoy the musical stylings of Ella Henderson and Carolynne Poole.
Ella - she has a good voice.
Carolynne - has a special place in my heart after watching her on fame academy for weeks and meeting her at the Trafford Centre one time.

Lucy Spraggan (imo) is good- however i don’t think she should get through to the live shows purely as she isn’t what the x factor is. she has the exposure she needs now to go on with her own stuff and be awesome at it.

but hey, the live shows are a whole other kettle of fish - girl bands that look like hos will get voted off, older people will last 5 minutes regardless of how good they are, anyone with a rock tone will also not get far, novelties will get far and annoy everyone then get voted off - all making way for that one person that will win (accumulate a set of dormant votes to fund the next series) and oh yeah they have probably already been chosen… ENJOY THE RIDE.
