Liked Luke/Ellie duet a lot. Nick was ok, Sam/Nicole voices don't really go well together.

Nicole made Sam redundant.

Nicole is full package. If Sam was better than Nicole, then the fact that Sam is mumsy not conventionally attractive, unsexy, boringly married sweet but frumpy would not have mattered, but Nicole has looks, personality style sexiness AND is more talented. Why bother with Sam?

Female acts have to really market themselves now eg beyonce's sudden 17 videos, miley's naked wrecking ball, gaga's art pop nonsense. Male artists like jason derulo, pharell williams did less promo and succeeded. How the hell would Sam market herself?

My favs have been RC, luke, miss dynamix and tamera (like hannah but I know she's not going to make it) so last few weeks have been awful.

However the XF audience is a broad ITV1 audience, grans, older mums make a high %. Which is why Sam B, Chris Malone, Steve Brookstein all did well (Sam b fanbase is similar to Malone). No bearing on music buyers who in 2013 liked Pharell, Daft Punk, Miley, Robin Thicke, Rudimental, John Newman and Taylor Swift.

Good old John Newman.

And I'm the same as Joey and a few others, I will not be voting tomorrow as it's got to be the dullest final 2 ever.

Exactly. Why didn't she allow Sam her moment? She just made it about her. I think it's very selfish.

but what is nicole supppsed to do, put a bag over her head, a muzzle, wear a sack and not move? The simple fact is how do you know Nicole wasn't holding back to let Sam shine. The failure was 100% Sam's fault as she failed. For all we know Nicole might have tried to let Sam shine.

Sam must not worry though if people critique her performance. Nobody was noticing, her all eyes on Miss Scherzinger!

I don't think their voices go well together and that's another problem.

I have to agree with you, Ellie and Luke were very much a partnership, Shane knew when to step back and let Nicholas lead but it seemed in the performance with Sam that Nicole and Sam were in a battle for who got the best of each other.

Nicole totally outperformed and outsang Sam,which left Sam seemingly coming across as in a way struggling with the song and peformance by playing catch up almost.

It seems Nicole may be more insecure than she appears - with that attention-seeking performance. A fine demonstration of some tarnish appearing on your so-called star. All her 'shamazing' nonsence has become way beyond boring, just like her. Talk about 'over-kill'. She thinks she is x-factor anyway. Give me Simon any day.

Don't worry about Sam, if she loses she will get work as Nicole's backing fourth singer.

She better win. She's still miles better than nice, but dull Nick.

At the end when Dermot finished speaking to Sam her face is like thunder. I so wish I could do a screenshot of it.

Don't blame her. I'd be pissed off with Nicole as well. This is just like the Rebecca/Christina Agulera duet. She just made it all about her.

Why should Sam be angry at Nicole. It's not Nicole's fault she is a better singer and has all other things going for her. SAM should have sung better.

If you are going to take on Nicole you need to give your "A - game".

It's actually ruined Sam's career whether she wins or loses as it's rendered her pointless.

Imagine Sam and Nicole are both finalists and you are a music exec wishing to sign a female diva, who would you sign Nicole or Sam? I think we knowthe answer. Case dismissed.

Don't get me wrong Nicole has a great vocal (I am shocked she is not as successful as some of the top US stars) but she showed Sam up, plus shehas the looks, charisma and sexiness Sam lacks.
Her own mic wasn't working, she then shared his. Simple as that really.

It's why I've never rated Mariah Carey.

I don't equate volume and screeching with singing.

I can squeal in many different tones but no one wants to buy an album of it.
