Well he didn't win in the end

So who knows I just might be right again. There are similarities between the two of them in terms of them being one dimensional and only being able to sing in one style.

But there is one big difference Rhydian could sing a pure note!

I wish him luck. now he is doing Opera I'm happy. He is good at that. He just wasn't the X-Factor material.

And neither will she.
I beg to differ, Songstresses are very popular now in the music industry I can see her doing very well especially if she sticks to the same style of her auditions.
but she has gone miles away from how she was in auditions there wasnt no yodelling or jazz hands then
But there was. Sure, she didnt have the squeak in her voice, but if you listen to her bootcamp stuff, you it sounds the same, oh and the hands are still there.
Diana doesn't top every poll on the internet

her style is completely different now to what it was. i liked her in the auditions but i can't stand her now because shes become a parody of herself

How the fudge do know she can't dance? and so what if she can't, does Leona dance, no, does Duffy does, no!.

And why is it some people on here can't understand that her fans luv her and vote for her, just because you dislikers say she is the worse act and rubbish on the night doesn't make it true, it's called your opinon! IMO Yellow was her only poor performances, I luv Diana I want her to win I will be voting for her end of!

And there lies the problem with the X-Factor, it's not a talent show but a popularity contest.

It doesn't matter how bad you are on a particular show, your fans will always vote for you.

It's the "John Sergeant virus" and it will infect everything and kill off the format.

IMO, She had ONE bad performances, just because you think she has had more doesn't mean we all have to agree with you, X Factor stop being about talent years ago, I don't knwo why some people keep saying that, it's boring now. Diana has been my fav from day same as Alex, I am voting for them, and them only I don't like JLS, Eoghan or Ruth, so therefore I will not vote for them, why is that so hard to understand for some people. Why do all us Diana fans have to agree with all you Diana dislikers, we get it, you don't like her! doesn't mean we have to as well.

One of the big problems with the "popularity" aspect of it is the fickle nature of the viewers. While they'll happily vote each week for a certain contestant, they won't actually follow that up once they get signed, effectively making the winner unsuccessful.

Umm, Diana CAN dance, considering she is a trained ballet and tap dancer, but whatever, don't let good old fashioned facts get in the way of hate.

She could be more successful people didn't download her stuff, but that aside, she was consistent week in and week out.

Someone didn't listen to her first 2 performances then.

We are never going to agree if Diana is good or not, because some people like the quirks of her voice, others don't.

Leona was the exception to the rule. Have any of the other winners of these type of shows been as successful? Leona is the only one.

There were okay for the start of the show, Leona lacked confidence, still does sometimes you see it interviews, but her voice was as good. And nearly anyone is bound to improve as the show goes on, just from the voice coaching alone.

Back to Diana, at the start of the show I really liked her, it was like a breath of fresh air had been injected into the X-Factor, but as the show went on I have grown tired of her squeaky voice and her stupid left hand. The air freshness has turned in the smell of the swear, it's unpleasant and leaves a nasty taste in the mouth.

Leona got better in time (what a pun) meanwhile Diana started off strongly but has gotten progressively worse. Yellow was the low point, Patience was a slight improvement but she was back to full health (miraculous recovery from laryngitis...) so there is absolutely no excuse to be singing that poorly so late in the competition.
