Nicky I have to be honest your team seems a bit weak there isn't anyone really standing out to me but I'm sure you have what it takes as a mentor to find a star
Adam I like your team so far some great girls I'm excited for the next round What do you think of my top 8, |
my team isn't weak, i'm sure Anthony could have potential at becoming popular for example, and i am happy with Tyler being back
but yes i have made a few weird decisions i think |
Think it's just cos the only ones I know are tyler and javine and it usually affects votes if it's people that people don't know
|

Alisah Bonaobra vs. Lauren Murray. 1. Alisah Me: WOW, what a voice. It was perfect. Demi: I had goosebumps. Sia: It was amazing, you deserved a chair. 2. Lauren Me: It was amazing as always. You showed yourself perfectly. Demi: Yeah, Your voice was incredible. Me: OK, I made my decision. The winner of the sing-off is Alisah. Demi: I think it is the right decision. Sia: I was so excited before your performance. You didn't disapoint me. Me: Lauren, you were great. But I had to eliminate someone. I think you are too shy. Please work on it, because the talent you have can't be underrated. People must know you and talk about you. Demi: Is it the end of 8 Chair Challenge in your team? Me: Yes. I feel I made right decisions. I thank you, Demi and you, Sia for helping me. Sia: I respect your decison Adam, but I would choose Lauren. Girls, you both were fanatstic.

This is my judges houses from Cyprus joined by the incredible talents of Justin timberlake and rihanna
Jake: wow thanks for joining me both of you this is an honour Justin: no its a privilege I'm looking forward to it Rihanna: Yeah I'm hoping we see something fresh and exciting something new First up is Fifth Harmony with Impossible https://youtu.be/OxT4aZsXkuY Jake: well done girls great vocal there Justin: I have seen the performances you girls put on they are full on I would have liked to have seen that Rihanna: I think it's good you showed how strong your vocals are and I think you have potential but I'm wondering is it original enough Next up is Rhythm and Lyrik with a mash up of closer and love the way you liehttps://youtu.be/_HEvrZ7SSDQ Rihanna: thanks for covering one of my songs it's special to me and you performed a very interesting mash up there Justin: its cool how you blended both those songs I like this group you have strong vocalists but fresh rappers too and a beautiful girl to join and it all blends effortlessly Jake: Yeah well done it was pretty amazing Next up is Through the meadow with holding out for a hero https://youtu.be/3FnOY86v390 Justin: I liked the version of the song it may be a bit too cheesy though Rihanna: Yeah you need to be careful that you don't be too old fashioned keep it current for me that didn't work as well as it should have but I see potential Jake: well I loved it I can definitely see a lane for you and I know how to mentor a group like this Next up is Extraverse with Look what you made me do mixed with toxichttps://youtu.be/aklnoprh6z0 Jake: so Justin and Rihanna what did you make of that Justin: well it's unique your all very quirky but is it right for a show like this Rihanna: I don't get it. It's risky. It's entertaining sure but is this group really going to sell records Jake: well done it's given me something to think about Next up is Mermaid with cool for the summer mixed with dark horse https://youtu.be/Pfr74Hh-GbU Justin: well there are 6 of you is that too many for a girl group? I guess it makes you a bit different. You girls look good but you all sound different you all are great but is is blending together how it should be? Rihanna: I think you stand a chance in the music world but I dot feel you have found your right lane yet I'm not sure how the public will respond to it Jake: I loved the mashup and I think you all sound great but I'm wondering if it was memorable enough Next up is Crush next door with a michael jackson Medleyhttps://youtu.be/VEiHE7zJ6Tw Justin: wow well that's definitely my kind of music the harmonies and the choreography were perfect honestly you smashed it Rihanna: you all look great which helps and i think at the moment there is space for a next big Boyband Jake: the problem with me is whether I'm capable of mentoring a Boyband it's not my kind of thing but I had to say I enjoyed this a lot and there is something special here Next up is Dollypops with problem mixed with Havanahttps://youtu.be/rhmzhIo1N6w Rihanna: you girls have swag but damn you can sing I think this is the strongest girl group so far Justin: I just don't think these ladies stand out enough. It was good but it needs to be outstanding the level of talent today is insane Jake: girls you keep improving each time I see you i just wonder how versatile you girls are compared to the other groups Finally is 4th Impact with rockabyehttps://youtu.be/r9gkXvqyaWw Rihanna: I think the family dynamic here is cute you girls are talented Justin: there were a few tuning issues but your very likeable and I see a market here Jake: it was good. This is gonna be so tough Jake: well it's time to make the decision. So where do you both stand on fifth harmony Rihanna: they are good but not very unique I can imagine you running out of ideas with them Justin: I have to say there are stronger groups Jake: ok on to Rhythm and Lyrik Rihanna: I love this group it's different Justin: very current too I say they should get a place Jake: on to through the meadow now Rihanna: you could mentor them well however they are on one lane of music it's very niche Justin: I feel we need a group like them but will they get the votes Jake: what about dollypops Rihanna: they could be great however I'm not sure where they fit in the industry Justin: Yeah they aren't new but I like them Jake: ok what about 4th Impact? Rihanna: they are sweet but they were pretty weak vocally Justin: they will get the public votes but I'm not sure if there are stronger groups Jake: on to crush next door Justin: honesty these lads need to go through they were my stand out act Rihanna: Yeah they are your only Boyband I see a market for them too Jake: ok what about mermaid Rihanna: I'm in two minds they look great they sound great but I'm not sure it's going to work Justin: they are your best girl group. But with only four spots it's a tough one Jake: finally extraverse Rihanna: I'm sorry but they are novelty and a joke act which might be cool for a few weeks but it's unfair to send a strong act home over them Justin: they are marmite I didn't like it but people will love them Jake: well thanks so much Here is my decision First up is Rhythm and Lyrik and Dollypops Jake: hey everyone thanks for auditioning for me you are all amazing but between you two acts I can only take one through. The act I'm taking through is a type of act I haven't worked with before, a very current act and quite a unique act. The act that will be joining me in the live shows is Rhythm and Lyrik. I'm so sorry dollypops I wish you a bright future but for now I will be sending you home Next up is 4th Impact and Crush next door Jake: you both blew me away. But I'm trying to have quite a versatile team and I feel like you two acts would be given similar music. I can't take you both through. I'm going to take the act through that impressed my guests the most and who I feel gas a chance at winning. The act joint me in the live shows is Crush next door I'm sorry 4th Impact Next up is Fifth Harmony and Mermaid Jake: you are both great girl groups but I obviously wouldn't be able to take you both through as your far too similar. I'm taking the act through that I feel have a fresh sound and are different from other girl groups. I need the most versatile act. The act I think has the biggest chance in this show is Mermaid so I'm sorry fifth harmony I'm sending you home So that leaves just one more place in my team and the two remaining acts are through the meadow and extraverse Jake: this has been the toughest choice for me. Through the meadow the four of you are such lovely girls your voices blend beautifully your country style of music is very popular right now and it's rare to get a country girl group. Extraverse I haven't known a group like this. It's very cheesy it's very 90s. My guests said you were marmite and they didn't like you. I kind of love you though and I would love to see what you could bring to the show. I would love to take you both through. I find one of you very risky and one of you very safe. I think it's time for me to take a risk. I'm going to take extraverse through Through the meadow I'm so sorry your all great and I hope to work with you on a show at some point So my team are Extraverse Crush Next Door Mermaid Rhythm and Lyrik |
Top 16 (so far) only team adam to confirm his 4 acts
Jamie miller Nate Simpson Drew Wedlocke Ryan O shoughnessy Terry Winstanley Tyler Hudson Anthony Fedorov Javine Hylton Extraverse Crush Next Door Mermaid Rhythm and Lyrik Samantha Harvey Nicole Simpson aka Red Madilyn Paige TBA |
