And people are annoyed not because they're obsessive Katie haters but because of the sing off, where one act messed up their song and the other sang perfectly.

If they don't like it then they should just not watch. I very much doubt a few thousand people [or even a hundred thousand people] is going to matter at all to them. When they have 16 million viewers - it really doesn't matter. And, really, no matter how many people say 'I'm boycotting the show' - they will still tune in. In their droves. Just to see what happens. It's exactly why stuff like this happens. Simon and co love it and everyone laps it all up without realising what they're doing. It's outstanding but fascinating to watch and it does wonders for the show.

Even if that is the case [which I doubt] - everyone knows that's the way the show works. You vote for your favourite acts to 'save them from the Bottom Two'. The two acts with the least votes sing again for the Judges Votes - not the publics, as it's out of their hands from then on. Everyone knows what they're voting for. They have done for seven years now. Once the Bottom Two is confirmed - it is out of the publics hands unless it goes to Deadlock. ITV, Syco, the producers and the Judges can eliminate which ever act they want by using whatever means they want. It's that simple.
