Tamera will be a star and her likability will be redundant. Kanye West is an egomaniac, but he is very popular. People who bang on about popstars being unlikeable and therefore not viable imo tend to be the type who love dullards Joe McElderry and worship Cliff Richard and MOR overlord Josh Groban.
Tamera's bad PR will only hurt her on X Factor but probably be an advantage in terms of having a career post X Factor and what the haters need to get their heads around is winning X Factor is no longer important, it's having a career after it.
Sam B decent voice nice lady good mum no star quality whatsoever. She is simply too old, and old fashioned, frumpy and of no interest media wise. Music is a young persons game. It's not like the 1980s where 1970s stars like Tina Turner could continue their career in their 30s and 40s. Yes, I know Bowie came back this year (ace) but it's mainly for old fans buying album. Album sales are dead, its all single downloads etc.
Teenagers buy singles, they won't en mass buy anything by Sam B. Sam B, Miley or Rudimental, they won't go for Sam B (unless buying for their mums on mother's day!). The media wont be interested in Sam as she's a married mum of 2. Mums Beyonce, Pink and Lily Allen started their careers single and fancy free.

I know Luke is unlikely to win, but he's my favourite there and i would love to see him in the final.
