Anyone watch the X Factor?

Well I actually don't like the show. I find the judges and all the fake sentimentality rather irritating. However, I do like to tune in to watch the acts sometimes and well, you could have pushed me over with a feather - they have someone genuinely amazing on this year!!!

Seriously, Diana Vickers - OMG!! What a performance! She's only 17 and has only sung at school and stuff before, but she did this on the first live show...

So beautiful. *sob*

I haven't watched at all this year, until the repeat of last night's show today (round in-laws so had to watch). I have to admit that none of the acts stood out for me at all.
You're right about her voice...you either love it or hate it. My sister-in-law loves her and I have to say that she was the best of what I'd seen...definately the most distinctive voice.
I have missed all of the background stories of everyone, which is probably a good thing as I think you can let that influence you sometimes, rather than just going on the voice itself.
Can't say as I'm that bothered about tuning in again though.

Guh, I don't like all the background story bit anyhow. They just totally overdo it - everyone has to have a sad story and preferably cry whilst cheesy music is being played in the background. *groan* I usually fast forward if it's recorded or change channel if it isn't!

I did like quite a few of the acts this yr though and I normally don't!

Hehe, and love your icon. rospberry has one like that too!
