One of the biggest things on X factor to ever annoy me so much is what they did to janet! I loved her at her audition, I loved the YouTube clips she had done previously. X factor destroyed her, gave her the wrong songs and had no idea what to do with her! But... I have just downloaded all her stuff on spotify(and yes I am aware her album flopped) but I have listened to it for the first time and listened to her covers too. It's so nice to see she has gone back to her roots and yeah I know there isn't a lot of support for her but I love her music so much and she is a very underrated talent. If you liked her I recommend having a listen I wish she could get some mainstream support!!!!

She got a bit awful towards the end of the series, but she had a decent voice

Yeah I know X factor really let her down. She had a really distinctive voice with that lovely Irish twang. Because of stupid weekly themes and ridiculous song choices(mmmbop?!?!) it ruined her chance. Personally I now think she is at her best and should maybe consider applying for the voice? I think they would nurture her really well

Well look at Ella now? She never would've been allowed to be so contempary on her series.
And Lauren's hatred by some of the public was just bizarre, I mean except for about 3 performances she was doing really good performances and along with Andrea was also doing the most iconic performances of the series.

Janet's best performance for me was Fix You.

She didn't do well because she was crap.
For singers like her, doing the X Factor is like admitting defeat. |

Name a young white girl that was seen as attractive by certain sections of the audience that was loved by the majority of the public and wasn't given the dull tag?
Btw I thought that Ella gave a strong performance on Comic Relief. But yeah young pretty white girls do just as well as proper Rock singers and Rappers.

![]() You've got to understand that just because a contestant is a pretty white girl, doesn't mean that's why they're hated... in Janet's case is was because she was impossible to connect with on a 'reality' tv show basis, she was incredibly dull.

Diana Vickers was hated by the general public.
![]() And with Janet I wasn't even a fan of hers, but when dullards like Ben Haenow can win then how the **** can anybody dislike any of these girls for being dull?

She got to the semi-finals, so she couldn't have been that hated
![]() And it's all about opinions, what you find dull, others might not.. and i think you might be a bit miffed because you don't get to see the pretty girls on tv for longer than you'd like tbh ![]()

And too true about we're all not gonna agree on who's dull and who's not, I just find that the pretty young white girls (along with Indie singers) do tend to get the dull tag more than anybody else does in the competition. And LiamPRW the only sad one for me as she only got to week 4 and she was stunning was Sophie Habibis, of course I would've loved Lauren to have won the recent series, but it was only one week without her so I could cope with that, but poor Sophie Habibis. ![]()

Sophie Habibis <3
I do agree with you there, i thought her going was a total travesty, but it was down to song choices that she left, not jealousy or hatred.

Sophie lost to Frankie Cocozza how can that be explained? Even with the bad song choices she was still better than him by far.

Well again Ruth suffered jealousy as this is what my Sister said about her at the time “she loves herself” and of course no home territory didn't help her either.

Ruth is easily my favourite contestant ever and she did have a lot of people saying she loved herself because she was a confident woman.. but again, if people hated her, she wouldn't have made it as far as she did
