To be honest hes always going to be saved by the judges while they have that power unless hes up against Fleur who i think the judges know will have a longer career in the spotlight.


His fan base has been dwindling as week after week on the whole the songs he is getting are "very similar". Big ballards are ok but lets be honest here...all the other acts have shown more variety.


I can see him lasting another week but i doubt he will make finals night.


A hot fav to win the comp at the start has now drifted right out to 5/1 and the bookies usually have an insight to who is doing best when the votes are counted.

It's very hard for acts who are not from the UK to get to the final. And Simon and the show is also pulling all the stops to get him out. Singing first, Simon negative comments about his appearance, negative press, choosing Hero. All designed to get him out. It's a miracle he's still there, when they managed to get Paul out so early.
