Rhydian, emmmm, right.
Bev, too predictable. It be long til Louise has her singing "Last Dance" and compares her to Gloria Gaynor, Diana Ross.
Niki has a very tough song, the toughest of the bunch I think.
Hope - Very predictable, and yet another song that gives them an excuse to dress as slappers.

They didn't look like slappers that last time, they looked gawjuz and how young girls look, you go out night you will see that is what girls wear, I am one of them, and I ent no slapper.
IMO They looked awful. They were singing a slow song and yet they were dressed as ladies of the night. It's not their fault, its the wardrobe people.

A few people say Niki has a hard song to sing. She had a hard song to sing last week too. She’ll be fine.

I agree with Arneldo about Hope. They’ll be up their trying to look like the Pussycat dolls. So predictable.
This week though Niki was to have more "oomph" if you know what I mean. Hopefully she has it in her.

I think she does. It's a hard song to sing in that she'll have to hold a lot of notes for a long time.

Yes, she is definitely one of, if not the best, singer in the competition so far. I'm sure she will do it well but I think it will be hard to top her faultless performance last week.

Sorry, but my friend is in Hope. I can't help myself being angry if someone's going to call her a slapper.
Which one's your friend?

Rhydian will steal the show again most likely. I can't believe that some of you are buying in to this "he's the bad guy" gimmick that the producers have decided to give him. It was easy in the edited shows to make him look like a bit of an arsehole but you could tell on the live show last week that he was a decent bloke, he took the judges advice well even though Sharon was trying to belittle him, making him show his chest and stuff trying to take the focus off his singing, but he handled it well.

16-24 Females

Alisha has a pretty dull song again. There are moments which she could show how strong her voice is, but I think she'll be bottom two again (unless she does something to make the song more powerful).

Emily has a pretty dull song, too. After her performance last week and the way she hasn't been up-to-scratch with her first audition, I wouldn't be surprised if this boring song landed her in the bottom two with Alisha.

16-24 Males

Andy's choice of song will be interesting to watch because I haven't got high hopes for him pulling it off. He has a pleasant voice, but I'm not convinced that he's able enough as a vocalist to perform the song the way it should be performed.

Leon is a good jazz/swing singer and I'm not too sure what this song is. If it's Michael Buble, I think he'll do well. If it's Chris Daughtry, I imagine he could be in trouble again.

Rhydian has a fantastic opera voice and the song is simply perfect for him. If he performs like he did on Saturday, he'll sail into the next round.

25 And Overs

Beverley's song choice suits her down to the ground because of the powerful and strong voice she has. She's sure to be one of the stars on the night.

Daniel has a very bizarre choice of song this week and until I've seen it, I'm very sceptical on how well he'll do. Could be great, could be terrible.

Niki is a difficult one for me. She's done fantastically in all over performances other than 'Natural Woman' - a very big song to attempt. I hope she pulls it off and think she'll do Celine some serious justice.

Groups

Futureproof are once again playing it safe and are sure to be in next week's show with another boring ballad. I believe they'll perform well, but I can't help but think they're playing it a little too safe.

Hope could be either fantastic or terrible - I'm fearing the worst, to be honest. Leona sang the song averagely last year and she has one of the most powerful voices in today's music business. Leah and Pheobe are great, but I'm not too sure if the other girls have the strength because I've only really heard them sing in harmony (other than Racquelle, who isn't exactly show-stopping).

Same Difference are bound to do well this week because when they sing slower songs, they're actually very impressive. I hope they do well and have high hopes for their performance - the HSM theme suits them so well.

I agree. And of all the posts I've read about Rhydian being a jerk, no-one has actually said WHY they think this. And when they do say why they think he's bad, it's very vague, like "He's so smug/cocky/whatever" and they don't actually have anything to back this up. He seems really nice to me. He didn't even talk back to Sharon when she was trying to embarass him and have a personal dig.

I wonder if he can sing in a countertenor voice. They'll probably make the song lower though.

I don't like Rydian because he is such a big head, he iswith out a dobut the best male singer on X Factor, but I hate his personlaity and how big headed he is. Thing is none out there would want to work with him because of the way he is, and the GP will not vote for him to win because of how he is and how he puts himself across.

We go to the same college, and I've known her for about 3 or 4 years now.

In fact if I remember correctly I was singing Lady Marmalade with her at a party...oh dear...

And no

Rhydian's definitely a good singer. I quite like him but, the looks got to change. He looks like a villain in a Boris Karloff film.
