I have a feeling this new voting format will work so that each judge has an act in the final like the voice

Simon clearly wants to make the final after not making it last year and it's embarrassing for him if he doesn't

Sharon always has to make the final so she can show lots of emotion for an act she dearly loves even though she probably hasn't mentored them the whole series and spent the whole time in America

Louis has to make the final because throughout the series he will make predictions of you will be in the final you should be in the final you deserve to be in the final your a pop star and he has the boys category so that's a given

Nicole had to make the final even though she has the weakest category so she can do a duet with them that her acts never want they want a relevant star who inspire them instead they have Nicole grabbing the mic off them and wailing down it true diva style

That being said

I'm looking forward to the live shows
