Default Fleur East - Uptown Funk, the most overrated performance of the night?

Am I the only one that thinks that this very gimmicky and average performance was really overrated by the judges tonight? All she did was use a backing track, and danced through most of the performance without singing a note, and then when she sits down on the chair her vocal falls apart, I mean Simon's script fell apart there I think.

Surely I can't be the only one on here that hasn't fallen for this bull**** with Fleur East am I?

Yep agree and as for her changing track at the 11th hour, it's about as believable that Simon didn't remember who she was at Judges houses

I'm stating that she's very overrated (like last years winner was) for other stuff that isn't to do with her singing, if you want to watch a dancing show there is a show on BBC1 called Strictly Come Dancing, and on Sky 1 called So You Think That You Can Dance.

And also how come Fleur was the only one doing an uptempo tonight? Simon deliberately did it to make her standout because she can't actually compete with the other 3 without some pathetic little gimmick, this being the most effective one of them all.

And she wasn't allowed to stay on earlier than Lauren in the time slots either, I wonder why that was? The show has always been a sham, but it doesn't even bother to disguise this year, if you're not a fan of Fleur and have been supporting someone else just give up now as we've been forced to have Fleur win.

She was singing and dancing I don't see the problem, I will be **** boring if the act just had to stand every week and sing a song

As do the 2nd bit;
>>>>>>>>> Lauren, Ben, Andrea

Fleur also got 1st & 2nd two of the worst places, the only reason she's getting praise every week is because she's amazing every week

First of all, X Factor is an entertainment programme. Therefore, that includes performances. And performances are often when someone puts on a good show by singing and dancing. If you want to watch a singing contest with no gimmicks, go and watch The Voice on BBC1.

Fleur was the only one that did uptempo because she IS the only one that can do uptempo. Lauren failed miserably last week at Clarity, Ben's voice is only suited to rocker-ish songs, and Andrea just hits ballads every week. None of them can dance as good as Fleur, so why even try and bother? Can you imagine how dull and slow the final will be without her.

And when it gets to final 5, the running order always switches about for the second performances, so I'm not really sure why you're crying over that like it's some massive attempt to rig Lauren out of the competition Not sure how we've been forced a Fleur win when her audition wasn't even shown and no one knew who she was until Judges Houses

You are a lost cause, there's no point explaining all this stuff to you as you are dead set on trying to make Lauren look like the best thing since sliced bread.

You must have **** in your eyes and ears because it was AMAZING! Im not even a Fleur fan but I literally watched it back 3 times.

She is as good as any popstar out there at the moment.
