His ego took a hit when he was in he bottom 2... what a hypocrite surely Rylan should have gone the week Ella left, if he is interested in the show's credibility!

[Vanessa]

I think Jahmene is better anyway. His voice just makes me melt!

[MrWong]

The tabloid papers make up BS stories all the time and the show feeds BS stories to the press to keep the show in the headlines.

I don't know why people bother quoting any of the ****e that the papers print.

It's true though, if Christopher won the show would take a massive hit. The same if Rylan would have won

He's a good singer, but he's not the best in there.

[Kizzy]

It made me laugh when I saw Simon Cowell actually thinks the show HAS some credibility....
These 'judges' just play a game with these poor sods, why do they insist on saving their own acts?
I thought This was a talent show... not an 'eliminate the other judges acts at all costs' show?

How can you say that when in 9 years the show has produced only a handful of stars and most of them were second place, this is a Saturday night entertainment show, its got nothing to do with music, as Kizzy says if it had the Judges would vote off their own acts.

Agreed. I think X Factor can still produce great talent. Like James and Jahmene for example. Both fantastic.

Haha Christopher wont be able to go out of his house if he wins :L

[King Gizzard]

This proper annoys me how they're all pally with Rylan yet off with Chris, when lets face it, even if we like Rylan for the lols Chris is better

That video is pretty telling, it's not just an article, there's actual footage of him saying it and Rylan smirking and ushering him away. Clearly they don't like Christopher, clearly the judges don't like him, and Gary Barlow is very good at pretending he has faith in someone to the cameras (see: Frankie Cocozza) - I doubt he likes Christopher when it comes down to it. Fair play to the guy for going for his dream, he's done remarkably well, but in terms of what the X Factor is after, he is neither (young and) energetic (Little Mix, One Direction, Cher Lloyd, JLS, Olly Murs...) nor is he a phenomenally talented singer (Amelia Lily, Misha B, Matt Cardle, Rebecca Ferguson, Alexandra Burke, Leona Lewis...) - and with the top 7, the remaining acts fell into one of those two categories: (young and) energetic = Rylan, Union J, District 3; phenomenally talented = Ella, James, Jahmene. Chris doesn't fit into either category, making him redundant in terms of what the X Factor show wants to produce. They either want the very best singers in hopes of emulating Leona, or they want someone fun and young to emulate the likes of Olly, 1D et al. That's clearly Chris' unique selling point in this competition, and I guess that's a good thing, but personally I think he's a fawning sycophant, he seems totally fake and I can't bear to watch his performances. Hopefully he makes the final and goes on to win so that the X Factor gives itself a kick up the arse and stops putting through people like this and stops with its stupid twists. The UK is FULL of talented singers and yet we get like 3 max every year on the show, which is stupid because it cheapens the show. If they put through 12 genuinely great singers/performers, it'd have incredible ratings, we'd have exciting sing offs every week, and instead we get half a dozen ****e pub singers, manufactured groups full of clueless solo artists over ones who've been practising for years, fairly good singers with potential get pigeon holed into dressing a certain way, performing a certain way, to sabotage their attempts to win and then the sort of chosen two or so who are pretty much ass licked into the final. It was actually really satisfying to see Ella vs James in the bottom two. Both of them have been surly arseholes all series who seem to think they deserve to be there more than anyone else (rightly so too, but still, calm the egos) and it was worth it to see Tulisa's tantrum. Wish they'd stop ****ing us around and give us a good series again, it's boring being able to spot the winner before they've even had the judges houses and it's boring knowing that it'll be an acoustic version of a pre-existing song with a gospel choir for the winner's single and it's boring knowing they'll do a charity single with the same bloody concept as the winner's single. Rant over.

But Chris isn't liked as a person and Rylan is. The judges don't like him, the producers don't like him. This isn't the first time James has been outspoken about his dislike for him and there is another article I read about a 'feud' Chris had with Rylan. There has to be something to it all. Speaking for myself, I find his vids and interviews cringe worthy and he comes across as fake.

Couldn't agree more. And I've said it before but I'm saying it again. People are only supporting Chris to annoy people. I do not, for one minute, believe he's remotely talented. He's dated and an act like his should stay where it belongs, in a pub on karaoke night or singing into his shampoo bottle in the shower.
The sad fact is, the amount of ''support'' he's getting will probably earn him the winners crown, and that would make the entire series an utter waste of viewing.
He will croon his way through his charity song then release an album full to the brim of cheesy 80's power ballad covers and then disappear on top of the **** heap of flop X Factor Winners.
Anyone actually kidding themselves into thinking he will have a career after this is deluded. The fact is, no one is thinking that. All they are thinking is 'lets annoy everyone for another week'

I hope he does win to walk down that path, he will be a no one this time next year.
Lets hope the tradition of runners up outdoing the winner still holds true because there have been some absolutely phenomenally talented acts this year, mainly the three, Jahmene, Ella and James. It would be tragic to see them disappear over the likes of the Annoying Orange.
