I liked her in the earlier stages and was a bit unsure of her at bootcamp but now I know for definite she is overrated. She wasn't that good at all tonight and looked like she'd just got of bed and dragged through a hedge backwards.

Alex & Laura are much stronger, and one of those two are going to win.

She is amazing - get over it

This thread will be your downfall Thomas.

[I don't think she will win though, shes a favourite on forums but I believe that Hope were last year. Austin's got it in the bag.]

Not tonight she wasn't. I couldn't even hear/understand her at the start of the performance.

[Wildcat!]

I dont think she is overratted. I think she is right were she needs to be, 3rd or 4th favorite to win! If she carries on getting better, she might climb up and possibly win! DOnt forget, she is the least experienced singer of all of them so, she is more likely to have a better imrovement curve than the other girls! ANyways its ridiculous to say she is over ratted this early! SHe did a great ob week one, thats it! Lets see if she is just as good or better next week, then you can say whatever!

WOW! Is Diana a big favourite then!?

I think most of the acts were shaky at the start, just to get used to the mic, its normal!

I do like her, I liked her in bootcamp and kind of in the judges homes. I just think people are hyping her up to much and I don't think she deserves to be a forum fave at all when there are much stronger singers. Maybe it was a bad song choice? We'll see.

[Wildcat!]

The forums dont know what the hell they are talking about 90% of the time anyways! They liked Diana B4 sghe sang a note, so....
And most of them, thought Badlashes was wicked!!!!!!!

I see your point but it's not all, 100% about the voice. (Although obviously it's a major percentage.)

I personally really like her and I really hope she is good and it was just nerves. If she had sung the song well tonight, it would of been absolutly amazing!

They do or else why bother with them, if it's just a load of wrong, stupid comments?

Whether people win or not isn't the reason people like the singer. So it's not really relivant to whether or not their opinions can be classed as 'knowing what the hell they are talking about' or not.

I think Diana did look off before the makeover and live shows but someone has shown her how to apply make up and do the messy look without looking disheveled and now she is actually pretty beautiful.
While I do think she started badly tonight when she had the louder parts she was fantastic- if you like her kind of music that is.
I think Diana's appeal lies in the fact she is something not often seen on the X Factor which is someone quite unconventional from the norm but still marketable, that's where her popularity comes from, she's a 'quirky' singer with a pretty face and you aren't likely to get her mixed up with the other contestants any time soon!
Personally I think she's a breath of fresh air from the usual Leona type singers the X Factor usually presents (Like Alexandra) and I think its her differences that make her so popular or in your opinion 'overrated'.

[Wildcat!]

good post! That why I thought she was the special one (not JOse Mourinho) in the auditions. I love her voice and her strange hand movements. But I didnt think she was the best singer!

I think she was all before. (From what little I've seen.)

100% hit the nail on head. Perfect!

She is good but she is also overrated

[xDramatick]

She did have a shaky start but she IS a good singer.
Obviously if you compare vocal talent, she would be weaker than the other two girls.
However, the X-Factor isn't just about vocal talent [though I admit, I do wonder sometimes =|] and she is extremely likeable, and unique. No-one else like her in the charts today. I find her totally captivating, and if she was to win [in an ideal world] she'd be the first UNIQUE winner.

[XxShortyxX]

There is something about Diana that I just luv, her voice is so unique, it's different from the others. I agree that Laura and Alex are much stronger then Diana, but I still say that the girls and Rachel are by far the best.

[M X]

I think Diana's voice is beautiful.

Defo right there, only Alexandra, Laura and Eoghan had a good start.

Not all of them had a really bad start where you couldn't hear though ...
