Default Which act from this year did you think had potential to be really good but got wasted

I would have to go with Sophie as they gave her a rock song in week 2,gave her early time slots every week while the other girls was on considerably later than her.

Also a mention to The Risk aswell as in week 1 they was different for a boyband,but after that they got sabotaged with song choices that One Direction,JLS or Nu Vibe would have sung,also getting rid of a member from the group just to replace him with somebody from Nu Vibe didnt help either as he was talentless and just a poser,I also believe that Charlie was beliving the praise that the judges was telling him.

Anyway who do you think had there potential wasted this year?

I will do a thread that has all the series included in there tommorrow.

Janet, poor song choices and unfair comments ruined her chances

Sophie, she had the most talent in the contest and Bang Bang was a terrible song choice

Sophie, The Risk, and Janet were not managed right.

James should have been put through over Frankie.
Kitty was never going to get that far, public wasted her talent


& the Math teacher and Lascal were incredibly wasted not even making Judge's Houses!!!

2 Shoes, they could have actually been brilliant. That ****ing twist

And Johnny could have been a serious singer but no they had to make him a joke. :/

Sophieeee... and I couldn't stand Janet in the live shows, but when she sang Kiss Me and Chasing Cars, I thought they were brilliant, so I think that was just her being advised wrongly! So Sophie and Janet for me

Sophie Habibis for me, she is the stand out star on the charity single and it's awful she went out so soon, she had an amazing voice. I don't know why anyone would say Kitty, she delivered every week and was given fairly good songs but the public didn't warm to her, she wasn't wasted.

Really believe 2 shoes would of been good. They had that weird and wacky 'entertainment' factor that you get with most of the joke acts (jedward etc) but they also had great booming voices top go along with the entertainment, would of been interesting to see how they would of done.

actually come to think of it. A lot of the contestants could have been a lot better but think the mentors have been a bit rubbish. The only ones that have been given the right material are little mix, marcus, kitty, craig, amelia(now she is back, she should have never been sent home though) and misha. But all the rest werent mentored in the right direction especially Janet

The Risk. Kind of wish they had put Charlie through as a solo male instead of Frankie C.

Also agree with Claudia that Carolynne Poole had great potential, would like to see her try again next year.

I was never that sure about Sophie...always thought that Kelly got it wrong with booting Amelia out. NOW ITS COME BACK TO BITE HER.
But the real waste was Janet, who suffered from a mixture of average songs, average performances,(she showed fleetingly what she could do with her last 2 songs), and seemingly average mentoring from the Misha-mad KELLY....
