millions of people can sing, tons can sing beautifully but thats not what the show is about. Look at any any town choir.

Its about the X Factor - that certain something, be it charm, a twinkle in the eye a certain something that sets a person out from the masses.

Witness the people the judges brought to help them - not one of them is a great singer (all can sing) but they have a certain something elsle that sets them apart


I am not saying Honey G has this but just its NOT a singing contest and never has been (its actually a TV show first and foremost)

The 'X-Factor' is not a quality which DEPUTISES for singing - it is a quality EXTRA to the quality of being a very good singer.

If it is not a 'singing contest', then bring on the Magicians, Jugglers and Comedians, and rename it; "Britain's Got The X Factor'.

I did not list Clowns above, because the show already has them in abundance - namely, the Judges, and the dross who they keep putting through at the expense of REAL singers.
