[Strictly Jake]

So here is how my judges house round went

All of 6 overs and 4 boys joined me at my mansion in Florida, where they were all suprised when one of my very good friends Ariana Grande turned up

"Hey everyone, it's so exciting to be here and listen to how talented you all are, I wish all of you the best of luck and I hope you have fun"

So then me and Ariana sat down next to the pool ready to listen to the acts

Me: I'm really nervous for them, I'd say they all bring their own special qualities to each song they sing so all if them in their own way deserve a place so it'll be interesting to see how this goes

Ariana: well they should all be proud of themselves to get this far but you can only take through the people that you think really deserve it, the ones that will really put in 100% at the lives, anyone who looks like they would struggle it probably wouldn't be a good idea taking them through

Me: yeah I agree, Lets begin

First up is Jennifer Phillips

Me: Hi Jennifer how are you feeling?

Jennifer: I just want to do my very best I really want this and to be here in this lovely location singing for you both right now brings me lots of joy and I don't want it to end

Me: show me what you got then Jennifer take it away

Jennifer:

Me: yeah well done see you later on

Ariana: oh hey Wagner I have heard all about you, are you going to put on a show for us

Wagner: I will try to, I want to be in the live shows

Me: well don't let me down Wagner

Wagner:

Me: me neither I have some hard decisions to make......

[Owoaje1993]

okay, i'm excited for this twist




and some details for the first liveshow, 1 act will be eliminated in the sing off

[Strictly Jake]

So it's time to decide

Ariana let me know who she thinks she should go through and we mostly agreed but we did disagree on a couple of acts but ultimately it's my decision and who I think I could mentor to the top

First to hear whether she has made it through is Fleur

Ok Fleur, firstly I want to say that you do the overs catergory proud, the energy you have isn't usually evident in the overs category you bring some youth to it and you pick amazing songs, the only think I keep thinking is are you versatile say if it's 80s week or heartbreak week could you deliver or are you a one trick pony? I actually think you could smash anything you do, Fleur I have to put you in my top 4! Congratulations

Fleur: thankyou so so so so much! I won't let you down I promise I'm going to bring it Jake

Next to hear whether they have made it through is Maria

Hello Maria, I thought your performance was amazing and you brought so much power and passion to your performances it's good to see that, however I do sometimes hear the nerves in your voice when you sing and the notes are sometime a bit offkey I honestly do worry about that when it comes to live shows, I do feel there are stronger vocalists that are similar to you and I don't think I can put you through based on that, I think you have a lot of fans out there that will hate me but I gave it a lot of thought and I think you need more time to perfect what you do so please come back next year

Maria: ok, I'm really gutted I think I could have brought something special to your team but I appreciate your time with me and I will return

Up next is Wagner

So Wagner you will probably be the first to say your not a great singer, but what you do bring is entertainment and that's needed in them shows and usually get a lot of votes, I find you incredibly entertaining and you will bring something different to my team, it's going to shock a lot of people but I'm taking you into my top 4!

Wagner: are you crazy? That must be a joke?! Thanks very much

Next is Lillie McCloud

Lillie I find you incredible I really do, but I struggle to see where you would fit in the current music industry and who you would appeal to, but I sense how passionate you are for music and I can't ignore that I will be taking you through to my top 4

Lillie: I'm so happy I really am thankyou!

So with one spot left its either going to be Jennifer or Ruth going through

Jennifer your so great to watch you absolutely love what you do, and I have a feeling you could go far

Ruth I don't have anyone like you in my team, your a sexy rock chick and I love female rock singers

So this is a hard choice for me but I can't let this person go home, Ruth your in my top 4, I'm sorry Jennifer

Jennifer: ok I understand

Ruth: you won't regret this Jake, thanks so much!

So my top 4 overs are, Fleur, Wagner, Lillie and Ruth

Now for my boys

I'm calling Aiden and Carlito in at the same time

Aiden you make all your performances really dramatic, it's captivating and I love watching it but sometimes your voice sounds a bit weak

Carlito your a strong singer but do you stand out as different?

The boy I have decided to put through is Aiden

Aiden: wow! Really! Thanks

Carlito: ok I'm really sad it's over but I have had a great time

Next to see me are James and Rylan

James your an amazing singer but I think at times you don't come across to well to the public I think you could be viewed as miserable and disinterested but you definitely have talent

Rylan your not the best singer and I think your going to be one of those marmite acts where people will love you or hate you

Either way this is a risk for me to take either of you through, but one of you I think will really get the public behind them and will put on show stopping performances, the boy I'm putting through is...Rylan

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4CT...&feature=share

So there we have it, we have our top 17

[Owoaje1993]

We have a top 18 I will announce my 6th group in 20 minutes which will shock people

[Nicky91]

i'm so happy for Aiden to make the liveshows, but i am gutted for Maria, she's robbed

[Owoaje1993]

Not long now till the big reveal I'm gonna give you guys a little hint they are from the Xfactor

[Nicky91]

well Owoaje, you already have 5 great acts, but i am very excited for your surprise 6th group

[Owoaje1993]

The Sixth Group is
Country Boyband RestlessRoad

[Nicky91]

yeah i'm so happy for Restless Road, i love country

[Owoaje1993]

RestlessRoad-The reason why I chose these guys is because I wanted to test myself and take a massive risk also didn't want another urban group so I went with a country pop group because that's something I didn't have I'm nervous but excited about me mentoring them I also had wayyyy too many Girlbands so I wanted to make all my groups different .

[Owoaje1993]

So the Top 18 are

Groups
Paris Inc

NewReign
MelodyStone
RestlessRoad
Lazy j and big guy

Girls
CeCe Frey
Willis Jones
