Anyone else getting fed up of it? They aren't even very good (in my opinion), yet their praised as if they're the next Take That or 'Nsync. I doubt Simon would praise them half as much as he does if they weren't his act.

Nah I don't like the, they're essentially just 5 pretty boys who couldnt make it as solo artists strung together into an average group. They dont deserve the praise they get, although a lot of acts dont tbf, the judges seem very reluctant to criticise the contestants this year.

Zain is the hottest. Liam is hot too though.

Patrick

It's just because some girls would quite happily let them eat them out even though they are 11.

It's a disgrace.

Liam and Matt, fair enough they can sing.
They'd be a good group together.

The others? G.T.F.O my screen now you wankers.

That blonde kid that stands there and smiles and acts so cheesy all the time gets on my tits.

The fact you can just hear little girls screaming their nipples off after they stop singing makes me vomit.

Simon 'You'll be the next big boy band'.

Sorry, but there is no ******ing way these little wanna-bes will EVER take over JLS [Who I'm not a big fan of] and become Britain's biggest boyband.

Dream on.
They'll be forgotten about about 2 weeks after they leave.

They are actually really good...has everyone forgotten their Judge's Houses performance?

V5UQD61Tg3E

I admit they've not been great in the Live Shows But to be honest I'd put that down to the extremely loud backing track...completely drowning out their singing. No idea why it's so loud. Infact it's like that for a couple of the acts. They have talent...they're just not being allowed to show it. I hate how they're being criticised because they are attractive young guys that will pick up the young girl vote as well...that's not their problem. And if they have the talent to back it up [which they do, see Judge's Houses] then what's the problem?

Really?
I'm not gay but I think I'm capable of understanding why a girl finds some blokes attractive.

And I have to say people like Justin Bieber are not attractive.
People like Aston from 2 years ago aren't he looks like a monkey.
Lloyd from last year most certainly wasn't either.
Eoghan who I loved 2 years back, looked like a bean.

And these douche bags are ******ing messes aswell, the only one I can actually maybe understand a girl finding attractive is Liam tbh.

Matt, The other guy and that annoying blonde bastard that needs to be shot aren't.

They are good actually,
But like people like Justin Bieber, I just want them out because I'm fed up with the girls acting like they should win based on looks.

Take me and Coco for example last year,
I loved her and wanted to ****** her from Kandy Rain so badly, but did I want her to win? No.
Because Kandy Rain were sh*t and up their own arses, girls just need to know when to draw the line.

You know what I dont even think Simon gives two sh*ts whether they are his acts or not. All the other judges care about is whether the acts they mentor win or not. Its Simons show so he wants a good act to win whether they are in his category or not. Thats why he was so happy Matt got through tonight and in the final of alexandras year, he wanted her to win and not his own act Eoghan.

I think it's funny that quite a lot of people [straight, jealous teenage guys - if we're being stereotypical like you were] are not judging their talent and dismissing them because they're attractive young lads that some people are attracted to. As if they can help that, it's not their problem, is it?

Its not the truth though. Its a stupid, ignorant, stereotypical view that is lumping every viewer into the same category just because YOU personally do not think one direction are up to much.

And to blow your theory out of the water, I quite like them, I am no way a teenager. You may throw at me that I only like them for their looks...which couldnt be further from the truth as I think most of them are quite vile actually...but in that case, my partner likes them too.

Sorry Si, but I think The wanted have just taken that slot. And they do it so so much better tbh. Plus they have a strong singer upfront...which OD just don't, sadly.

I like them and want them to do well but really they are just not slick enough to cut it in the real world. Thrown together and it shows.
