ah yes, the joys of THE X-FACTOR... lol, omg!!

i dont think the yank version is so seedy and cheesy as the brit version. What makes me laff is they all want to be in it, but last years winner aint done shit.

I had an idea for a script once. It's basically Jaws except when the guys in the boat are going after Jaws, they look around and there's an even bigger Jaws. The guys have to team up with Jaws to get Bigger Jaws.... I call it... Big Jaws!!!

yer K and you know that all the judges are saying that this year we're looking for an "international star" to try and give it more credability and in not so many words saying that we need to find someone with a longer shelf life. Hahahaha - I'll start watching it again when they get to the final 10 acts.

yeah but the best bit is not the finals results and then the actual contest, the best bit is all the looneys who try-out for a place - classic entertainment

They said the chicken-factory guy is having another crack at it this year again - can't wait!

may as well be called chav-scum kareoke...its just barrymore rejections who are just desparate to be a celeb, earn dosh, endorse produc...er....i mean make music...and its my fave part of the show- i wont watch the rest once the chav has been weeded out...

seriously though, how deluded can you get? and talk about put all your eggs in one basket...essentially its arrogance at the highest level-

a bit like bands like oasis, echo and the bunnymen who claim to be the 'best band in the world'....oh yeah? if you are the best who influences you to write music?

these people think they can sing, they listen to a pro, hear themselves and the ego part of the brain goes into spasm causing them to think their voice is as good as if not better than the professional reference...well thats my explanation for it

Maybe its just a bit of harmless fun now. I mean it is a bit pantomine with Simon Cowell the evil villian and Sharon Osbournve the good fairy. I watch it as a bit of escapism.

X FACTOR winner Steve Brookstein is no longer a favourite of Simon Cowell - and after lambasting the show and his former mentor, that's unlikely to change.

Brookstein warned the contestants taking part in the new series, which starts on ITV1 on Saturday night, to think twice.

He told the Daily Mail: "The show gives you a platform but then pulls the rug from under your feet by making you sign to a certain record label and having no say in what happens next.

"It should be about music and talent but it's not. X Factor damages your credibility."

Steve's comments come hot on the heels of the news that Sony BMG have dropped him, and Simon Cowell has lost interest in him.

Steve is convinced he knows why. "In the same period last year, prior to The X Factor, I had performed over 200 hours of singing," he said. "This year, thanks to Simon Cowell, I've sung for a total of just 35 minutes.

"It's a joke. I keep asking myself what more I could have done and where I went wrong. I did everything that was asked of me - all the breakfast time TV appearances, radio tours and promotional stuff.

"I did my vocals for the album in two weeks. But it did not come out for six months and I suspect that was because, after the show finished, Simon spent a month on holiday in Barbados.

"Then he went to America and did Pop Idol. I was never was one of Simon's priorities. Simon Cowell is Simon's priority. All the show has done is restrict my trade - but c'est la vie."

And Steve had this message for wannabe singers thinking of auditioning for the show: "I would not advise anyone young and with talent to go on The X Factor. If you're young and any good, then you've a chance of making it on your own terms.

"The show is suited to older people - to those who have run out of opportunities and are at a dead-end in their careers, like I was."
