Default The X Factor: Will you be watching?

With The X Factors big return this weekend will you be watching?
Below is an article from Heatworld just to get into the XF mood!


Quote:
Screw socialising, now that the X Factor is coming back (this Saturday! Screeeeeam!) we’re going to have a summer romance with our sofa. And it seems that the judges on the show are just as excited about the show coming back as we are – especially newbie Cheryl Cole. In a new interview about the show, she admits that she “didn’t sleep a wink” the night before the first auditions. “I’ve always been a big fan of the show, so I was so excited to be taking part but it was also really weird and scary to think I was going to be a judge,” she says. “I didn’t know what to expect. There are loads of things I love about the audition stages. I like the people who have talent, but have had a tough time of it, and you know they are there to change their lives and watching their faces when you say yes is an amazing feeling. Also, the people that leave the room and you still feel excited because you know they have the potential to be amazing.” Cheryl also says she’s been finding it hard not to giggle at some of the, ahem, quirkier wannabes. “One thing I didn’t realise is that it is fine laughing at home when you’re watching them on TV,” she says. “But when they’re actually stood in front of you and they’re genuinely trying their best it feels so wrong – it is hilarious at times, though!” Ooh, we can’t wait to see how she handles it all – are you looking forward to the X Factor’s return too?

I will be watching the auditions half hearted they are boring too me... dragged on for way too long and always so annoying. They are the same every year, but when it gets too bootcamp I will start getting more interested and then come Live shows it will be all I can think about

Yep, I watch all of the rounds as well, I don't see why people dislike bootcamp and judges homes so much.

LOL. If the womans reaction after Simon tells her she isn't a good singer at 0.28 is anything to go by we're in for a good round



Moment of the series right there
