X Factor 2009 celebrity duets confirmed

[MarkWaldorf]

.....apparently!


We’ve had numerous rumours about the celebrity duets over the past week with everyone from the likes of Girls Aloud to Miley Cyrus being said to perform, however it appears the celebrity duets have finally been confirmed. As rumoured, Sir Paul McCartney and George Michael will be performing and we’ll be seeing the return of some other guest stars…

According to TV3’s Xposé, Sir Paul McCartney and George Michael will appear on Saturday’s show. Robbie Williams and Michael Buble are also due to return to the stage after performing on this year’s results show.

It was originally rumoured that Simon had been attempting to sign Coldplay’s Chris Martin to sing with Stacey however this now appears to be only a rumour, much to the disappointment of Stacey fans.

It is expected Olly will duet with Robbie, Joe with George Michael and Stacey with Michael Buble.

As for guest performers on the night, Leona Lewis, Madonna and Beyonce are all due to perform their latest singles.

So in short we have

SATURDAY: Paul McCartney, George Michael, Robbie (?) and Michael Buble (?) performing alone.

SUNDAY: Leona, Beyonce and Madonna performing alone.

I think that's right, the article is a bit confusing. :conf:

[Novo]

Olly and Robbie

Yes!

[Harry!]

Im so gald Madonna will be there!

[MarkWaldorf]

The finale is 4 hours remember :p

[Locke.]

Olly has won

[MarkWaldorf]

Olly has won

Without sounding biased, George and Joe is definitely the best combination!!!

[Jords]

Some good artists on! Looking forward to it :)

Prefered Stace singing clocks with the coldplay dude thoug

[Smithy]

Im so gald Madonna will be there!

told ya she would be

[Locke.]

Without sounding biased, George and Joe is definitely the best combination. It'll probably be a power vocal (more-so than the other pairs) and that's what pulled in the votes for Alex and Beyonce last year.

Olly and Robbie will probably be a gimmicky dancey performance and Paul and Stacey will probably be a more acoustic/stripped performance.

but I'm not going to jinx anything by saying someone will be the best.

I'm basing it on how many fans the artists have got. George Michael and Paul McCartney aren't really current anymore, and I'm guessing more younger people watch the show than older people do- so there is more than likely gonna be a lot more Robbie fans watching the other 2.

I dunno though, obviously the other 2 are still just as capable with the fans they've got but Olly will probably get more votes from the artists fans than the other 2.

[Lewis.]

Leona and beyonce (l)

[Princess]

Why is Robbie there again? URGH! Looking forward to everyone else though!

[Stephanie]

i said it would be olly and robbie a while ago

[Tom]

Olly pulls the long straw ...

[MeMyselfAndI]

Is Leona definately performing? How do you know!? If so im so happy pls reply to questions

[Smithy]

Olly pulls the long straw ...

obv. simon looking after his own

[Sam!]

What song would Leona be performing, she only did Happy a few weeks ago. Beyonce presumably Video Phone. And Michael Buble again aswell, what would he perform.

[Tom4784]

Ah interesting, at first glance I'd say it could boost Stacey's chances as Paul McCartney is probably the best known but then again Robbie's the only current artist. I still think Joe's probably gonna win though the celebrity duets are a lot more balanced this year.

[Smithy]

leona would probably perform I Got You or I See You

[teabag.]

nooooo
paul mcartney needs to be with olly

[MrGaryy]

What song would Leona be performing, she only did Happy a few weeks ago. Beyonce presumably Video Phone. And Michael Buble again aswell, what would he perform.

Beyonce isn't releasing Video Phone here, I reckon she;ll either do Halo or Broken Hearted Girl.

also, am I the only one who thinks Olly got totally shafted with his duet?

ohh I dunno then.

[Smithy]

she is december 14th release :)

[Dolphin-and-Whale]

None of these excite me although I'm a big fan of Paul's.

[Twilight]

Whoa good setlist

[abcd]

i would rather see olly with robbie williams, i think that would be a very good show

[teabag.]

me!
I dont think its fair how they get actual mega international singers and Olly gets robbie williams!? like last year alexandra getting beyonce was a bit unfair, if she hadnt of sang with beyonce i think JLS probably would of won!

[abcd]

who cares about international stars, this is a competition in england, robbie williams has achieved far more in england than beyonce

[MattBlake]

Joe should sing with Rachel mann :P

[biglover]

Stacey has the best duet, he is an icon and a musical legend! If he bigs her up people will listen x

[*mazedsalv**]

Brilliant lineup.
Could really boost Stacey's votes on the night.

Michael Buble= legend
Beyonce= There are no words, just a legend, goddess, brilliant vocalist etc...

[Firewire]

OMG Amazing!

[Shaun]

Colossal.

[Fom]

George Michael? Eugh!

[Tom]

I think it makes it more of a level playing field. Hot favourite Joe is lumbered with the rubbish act whilst Stacey gets the real star, but Olly gets the one who will compliment his performance the best

It might not be a closed book after all

[Locke.]

Think I might put a bet on Olly

[Stephanie]

i think olly and robbie will sound really good together

[Smithy]

Brilliant lineup.
Could really boost Stacey's votes on the night.



i hope so :thumbs: STACEY TO WIN :D

George is the one most suited to Joe. They'll both compliment their song well I think, especially considering George is the strongest singer of the other 2 guests.

[xDramatick]

Beyonce isn't releasing Video Phone here, I reckon she;ll either do Halo or Broken Hearted Girl.

Beyonce is releasing Video Phone in the UK.

[MarkWaldorf]

Stacey's now singing with Michael Buble, so I've edited the original post incase anyone gets confused.

[MrGaryy]

oh, well in that case Stacey got majorly shafted

[MarkWaldorf]

They're all good artists, but Stacey definitely got the slim picking. Robbie should pull in the votes for Olly if they do a good performance and George hasn't been on the show yet, so there'll be a lot of buzz around that.

[pinkmichk]

for me robbie and olly together on stage is a dream duet
