[Dogeatdog]

Ohhh!

[LukeB]

[Amy Jade]

Olivia Olsen?

[Amy Jade]

Ohhhhhh

[lewis111]

I'm actually liking the feel of this so far (probably cause it feels more CBB/I'm A Celeb tho)

[Denver]

Jeremy has put on so much weight :skull:

[Amy Jade]

Jeremy has put quite a bit of weight on I barely recognised him

[lewis111]

so no Vinnie?

[LukeB]

Louis said not one of them is known for singing :think:

[Amy Jade]

Max and Harvey are annoying me already. Please cull them early as possible

[Denver]

so no Vinnie?

He has a bye

[LukeB]

so no Vinnie?

I think people said he's automatically through. i don't know how true that is.

[Amy Jade]

Jeremy kinda looks like Simon...

[LukeB]

Max and Harvey are annoying me already. Please cull them early as possible

same, what is with cbbc with these annoying people. Karim on strictly and these two.

[Amy Jade]

He embaressed his family enough with that vile MJ exploitation

[Denver]

Did I just see Gareth Gates? :skull:

[LukeB]

Simon saying he didn't know who is turning up? I don't buy it.

[Amy Jade]

Who's the blonde in the Islanders? Cant place her at all

[LukeB]

Hayley :love:

[Amy Jade]

Hayley on prime times itv1!

[Denver]

Wes was my fave in the show now I hate him

[lewis111]

oh Wes sounds good

[Amy Jade]

Eyal is terrible considering he's been in boybands

[lewis111]

They all sound decent individually but it doesn't work as a group

[Amy Jade]

Wes is the only impressive one...

[LukeB]

Them as a group doesn't work :skull:

[Amy Jade]

Is that JoJo????

[Amy Jade]

Meh

[Black Dagger]

That was stunning.

[Morgan.]

Kevin not as strong as I was expecting.

[Amy Jade]

Is their TV show called HOMO or did I read that wrong?

[lewis111]

God could they pick a more boring group of idols

[Amy Jade]

Want them out already. Annoying.

[lewis111]

Ah not Brendan with the shade

[Amy Jade]

Pete Waterman head banging :laugh:

[Amy Jade]

The audience with huge names like David Foster, Victoria Monet and JoJo and then Sinitta in a glittery hoodie

[LukeB]

:skull: this is terrible

[Amy Jade]

:laugh2:

[Denver]

Kylie a shaking in her grave?

[lewis111]

Great song, not so great execution

[Tony Montana]

WTF is this. :skull:

[Kazanne]

That was bloody awful

[Mitchell]

Kylie can just retire now

[Amy Jade]

They were more fun than the twins tho

[Amy Jade]

Jeremy has a high opinion of himself doesn't he!

[LukeB]

Jeremy has a high opinion of himself doesn't he!

He was a twat on CBB

[Amy Jade]

He was a twat on CBB

Never saw that series in full sadly just highlights

[Denver]

King Martin

[Vanessa]

He has a nice voice. I'm enjoying this :banana:

[Wizard.]

Not the celebrities bringing their sob stories to the table

[Black Dagger]

Bashir is an icon.

[Denver]

I love Martin

[Amy Jade]

Oh come on he seems nice enough but he wasn't a good singer

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

They’ve all been ****

[Vanessa]

Oh come on he seems nice enough but he wasn't a good singer

I think he has potential.

[Amy Jade]

Best voice so far

[Denver]

Hayley won

[Vanessa]

Hayley is so good!

[Amy Jade]

Martin got a standing ovation and they make out Hayley was bad...bye

[lewis111]

The edit definitely suggests Hayley isn't going through

[lewis111]

I really like Jenny, would love to see her on I'm a Celeb

[Amy Jade]

Go on Jenni!

[Black Dagger]

Legend Vixen!

[Amy Jade]

That long note was awesome!

[Denver]

Wow what a voice

[Amy Jade]

Now that deserved a standing ovation!

[Vanessa]

Wow. That was incredible! :clap1:

[lewis111]

Are they gonna fit the rest in 10 minutes? Who's left?

[Denver]

I do expect Jenny to win, she is likeable has a good voice and is very loved by the public who know her

[Amy Jade]

Are they gonna fit the rest in 10 minutes? Who's left?

Megan, Jonny, Victoria and the girl group

Oh and Ricki, the Rugby boys...

[Mitchell]

Bloody loved Jenny before that, now even more so.

[Morgan.]

Are they gonna fit the rest in 10 minutes? Who's left?

I do believe that it’s Try Star next and then the others next weekend

[Morgan.]

V5, Jonny Labey, Megan McKenna, Olivia Olson, Ricki Lake and Victoria Ekanoye next week

[Wizard.]

Meghan and Jenny my final 2 :love:

[Amy Jade]

I sat through that am not going to hear Megan sing?

[LukeB]

is the one in the middle Una from The Saturdays ex?

[Tony Montana]

is the one in the middle Una from The Saturdays ex?

Yeah.

[Vanessa]

I like the way you work it :dance:

[Vanessa]

Nicole is loving this :joker:

[Amy Jade]

They were surprisingly good!

[Vanessa]

They were surprisingly good!

And sexy :dazzler:

[Amy Jade]

Megan gets a NO???

[Denver]

Hopefully Megan is dropped talentless hag

[Wizard.]

Not high heel shoes girl :cry:

[Black Dagger]

Megan gets a NO???

I mean... They're not going to actively spoil a result.

[Amy Jade]

Hopefully Megan is dropped talentless hag

Imagine calling Megan talentless when you stan Tulisa.

[lewis111]

They lowkey spoiled Victoria with her walking out the door looking kinda sad and shaking her head which is almost certainly a no.
Crying and saying you want it so bad could be either good or bad

[RileyH]

wes won

[DouglasS]

Wes and Samira might be better off as a duo. Zara and Eyal were not very good, Wes was actually very good

[LaLaLand]

Jenny though!

https://media.giphy.com/media/bGPTxLislwm3u/giphy.gif

[Mitchell]

Can’t believe Jenny won

[Morgan.]

Have they said how many acts are going through - I’m guessing 3 from each category? And I’m not sure but in the next time trailer in the discussions they were having - it seems like each judge gets one under, one over and one group?

[Strictly Jake]

How are the live shows going to work? Is the final on the 27th?

Does that mean we will get a week of live shows in half term holidays?

[Strictly Jake]

Jenny, Wes and the try stars were good suprises for me

[Tom4784]

This is messy as hell but I did enjoy it. This will probably be the first series I've watched in years.

[Owoaje1993]

This is my ranking

TryStar
Max and Harvey
The Islanders
Jenny
Kevin
Martin
Haley
Cole and Edwards

[Morgan.]

I’d go;
1. Max and Harvey - annoying but very talented
2. Jenny - such a great surprise
3. The Islanders - with their sound revised a little, they’ll be great
4. Try Star - really good, great entertainment
5. Kevin - not as good as I was expecting, could be amazing
6. Hayley - quite meh really, I can take it or leave it
7. Martin - he was okay, a bit overrated if you ask me
8. Cole and Edwards - a cringey disaster and a mess

[Denver]

Can’t believe Jenny won

Simon fuming the winner has been leaked weeks early?

[Morgan.]

Does anyone know what’s going on with Vinnie Jones - literally been no mention of him whatsoever

[Denver]

Does anyone know what’s going on with Vinnie Jones - literally been no mention of him whatsoever

Simon gave him a pass for the rounds as his wife had just died days earlier and couldn't ask him to stop grieving th audition

[Morgan.]

Simon gave him a pass for the rounds as his wife had just died days earlier and couldn't ask him to stop grieving th audition

I know that but they haven’t mentioned him once. Would be a bit random to go into live shows and be like ‘oh by the way here’s vinnie jones as well’.

And tbh I see the celebrity format being an annual thing now so they couldve just saved him for a future series

[Denver]

It's will be kept back as a surprise seeing as he is the biggest name

[Morgan.]

It's will be kept back as a surprise seeing as he is the biggest name

So he will be a wildcard act in a sense

[Owoaje1993]

So he will be a wildcard act in a sense
I reckon at the end of next week they will say by the way we have one more act then Vinnie jones appears

[Morgan.]

Baffled at how the live show format is going to work.

Final auditions obviously next week (19th), but there’s no shows planned up to the following Thursday (24th) and the final is meant to be the 27th So are there seriously gonna be 2 live shows :o

[Morgan.]

After watching Back a few times to try and pinpoint what wasn’t working about the Islanders performance (I liked it, but there was something off) I deffo think it’s Zara. She’s a great singer alone, but she performed in a much higher pitch to the other 3 and it wasn’t working. Especially when she was singing alongside Samira - it sounded so off because they were in two completely different pitches.

[Mitchell]

Simon fuming the winner has been leaked weeks early?
Twist and pulse did that?

He’s in the credits

I think it’ll just be weekly Saturday shows for a while

[Ross.]

Why was this actually really good

[Ross.]

If Jenny makes the lives I’m IN!

[Morgan.]

Why was this actually really good

I actually prefer it to the civilian one :hehe:

[Ryebailey23]

Worst were Brendan and Jeremy and incredible unlikeabel

[LukeB]

it was both Eyal and Zara.. it just didn't work. Wes and Samira would have been better as a duo. the whole thing was a mess.

[Morgan.]

But at least he sang in the same pitch as Wes and Samira.

[DouglasS]

But at least he sang in the same pitch as Wes and Samira.

I like Eyal but he didn’t sound great.

Wes was the star and Samira is alright also
The other two weren’t the best sadly.

[Morgan.]

Oh no he didn’t sound the best, I was just saying Zara stuck out more because she was singing much higher than the others.

[LukeB]

But at least he sang in the same pitch as Wes and Samira.

But he still wasn't good and he's one of the reasons why it was awkward and messy, if it wasn't for Jeremy and Brandon this would have been the worst performance of the night :skull: but if Samira and Wes was a duo would have been one of the best. Simon likes to split duos/groups and this was the time to do it.

Theres still chance :shrug:

[Morgan.]

In a heartbreaking confession, the 54-year-old admitted that before she died, Tanya made it clear she would have wanted him to do X Factor: Celebrity.

Vinnie is one of the celebrities lined up to take part in the ITV competition, which debuted last Saturday.

Tanya, who died three months ago after her six-year battle with melanoma came to a tragic end, was a longtime fan of the singing competition.

He told GMB hosts Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid: "She loved X Factor and she wanted me to do it.

"That was her dream."

He continued: "Whether or not I do it that is another thing."
