I doubt she's going to get to the final. She ought to, but I don't think she will.

I bet you in 4 weeks the faves will have completely turned around. It happens every year. The early faves never win, and rarely make it to the final. That's fact (if you don't believe me check for yourselves).

I have a feeling Daniel/Scott will slip through to the final week.

I hope Alex makes the final she deserves it after being snubbed by incompetent Louis a couple of years ago.

I don't think she will, not now...........on Saturaday IMO alex and ruth were the top2 vocally, but this no longer appears to be enough. In alex's case, she is being compared to 'another' whitney,mariah, and maybe leona.............in ruth's case, tho I will support her to the end, and feel she has shown much much more than, say, rachel so far, the public 'fan base' needs to increase for her to get out of that bottom 2..........diana meanwhile seems to be the flavour of the month.......

Alex is very talented, and has a good chance of winning.

Good point - Simon keeps comparing her to Whitney and Mariah, but he makes it sound like a bad thing when he says it. He's trying to rubbish Alex as unoriginal, even though she's a really talented singer.

True. I think Simon is trying hard to trash her but, because she's very talented, he knows he's going to look like a chump if he trashes her too much. I'm sure even the public can spot how talented she is.

Its interesting that, according to the bookies, Alex is not one of the favourites. I think JLS and Ruth both have shorter odd. I find that quite worrying. She's clearly a talented girl and if we're being told, at this stage, that other less talented acts are more likely to win then, that doesn't bode well for the rest of the competition.

How is Rachel better than Austin? Rachel has had a good audition thats it. Austin has been good throughout, lmao the only reason you dont like him is cos hes a man.

being a bloke has nothing to do with it, IMO Rachel is better because she brings personality and joy to her songs, Austin doesn't, he is dull and not that good.

The hell it isn't. Rachels performances have been awful so far, Austins have been good, yet you say you would rather Rachel won?

I think she is in with a good chance but I don't really want her to win. I would rather Diana.

But without a doubt she will make at least the final 5.

I have enjoyed Rachel's perforamces more then Austin, she puts personality into her songs, he doesn't, he sends me to sleep

I want Diana, Laura or Alex to win, Rachel is just another fav of mine, she brings the fun and entertainment to the show.
