I said Nicole would steal Sam's limelight in the duet and surprise surprise, she did. She did it last year to Jahmain and snatched the mic to make sure she was heard (James managed to out do her).

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.

[Me. I Am Salman]

She stole the show for me, such an underrated singer her voice was always amazing when PCD used to perform live

Youtube video

but yeah her performance with Sam was mindblowing and gave me the same feeling when Alexandra and Beyonce performed, I truly believe Sam will win now because of that and I want her to as well.

She made crusie ship Sam look weak

[reece(:]

Nicole effortlessly slays lessors (sorry Sammy B)

[mizzy25]

Am I the only person that thought Nicole and Sam singing together was horrible? It was like who can scream the loudest. It hurt my ears.

[Mystic Mock]

Nicole did brilliant, but I felt that the limelight should have been on Sam B but Nicole took it away from her.

I totally agree - and it completely put me off Nicole. I find her very attention-seeking despite already being so successful. She was there to support Sam, not to attempt to out-sing her - it was very uncomfortable. With 'friends' like her - who needs enemies. Shame on Nicole and x-factor. I hope it doesn't cost Sam the final.

Nicole's looks and singing ablity is why she's better than Sam B.

Nicole to win this X Factor final lol.

[Apple202]

and the whole point of a duo is their meant to perform together as one, nicole was clearly trying to make it about her

[Samm]

They should have sang poison

[Marc]

Typical Nicole. Stealing the limelight

Nope, Nicole was just being nicole showing her ability. Why should she dampen her talent down? The fact is she 100% showed up Sam and Sam's short comings.

Nicole has a vastly superior vocal range and ability plus Nicole oozes sexiness, stage presence and charisma, which Sam lacks. Why bother with Sam? Sam looked like a local kareoke competition winner who got the chance to sing with Nicole. Last year Jahmain was dominated but mic gate and the fact he's a guy so he was not shown up as much and James Arthur held his won. Nicole easily wiped the floor with Sam.

Nicole was supposed to be supporting Sam (and Sharon) - not wiping the floor with her. She put herself first, instead of doing her job. Selfish madam.

[Vanessa]

Agreed. All i could hear was Nicole.

Again, disagree Nicole was just singing. If Sam b was as good as her fans overhyped her she would have more than held her own, she failed totally and to reiterate all Nicole did was show why Sam has no career in the real world. Sam b was just so so, all the best bits came from Nicole.

Sam was like a Buckie Thistle Fc player trying to play for Nicole's Bayern Munich or Paris St Germain.

[Mystic Mock]

Sam was really bland tonight for me, even Nicholas's Candy has stuck in my head more than any of Sam Bailey's performances.

[Cherie]

tbf I thought Sam was great tonight, but Nicholas was pants, I blame Scotland for being tone deaf.

Same here, I wonder where Luke's votes will go now.
I still can see Nicholas winning this somehow.

Luke's votes won't go anywhere as he was an alternative to bland Sam and Nicholas. The two finalists probably OVERLAP the most. If you like Sam b you probably like Nicholas.

Likewise RC voters wll probably have stopped watching.

You are probably right there, I was voting for Luke and now won't be voting for either of the ones left.

[Mystic Mock]

Sam B and Nicholas are both really bland and they will flop really hard in the charts, it's two Karaoke singers at the top 2 imo, it's a farce.

[Black Dagger]

They were both phenomenal together.

[GiRTh]

Didnt see it but not surprised this happened.

[Vicky.]

Yeah Nicole was fantastic, made Sam seem really plain for me :/
