I think its a strategy to get them safe. At this point of the competition, people will vote for their favorites multiple times, if they realise they are in danger, they start to panick. So by letting Alex and Ruth off the hook, it probably made some of their fans not vote as much. I think its a brilliant strategy by him.

Last year, I'm fairly sure he played Louis Walsh/secretly agreed with Louis Walsh to criticise Same Difference every week so that people would vote for them. He's a clever man, though I think his comments were genuine about the singers tonight, but it wouldn't be the first time he's used/abused his influential position to influence voting.
