I think that the result of seventh show of X Factor 2009 final was expected by majority of viewers. Between last 5 contestants Lloyd has the less impressive power of his voice.

He is a nice young guy attracting attention of girls’ part of audience but it’s not enough to win this competition.

So here is his last performance because on Sunday he has received the least number of votes. Lloyd is out of competition.

                             

Olly Murs again has to fight for survival because he received not enough votes to move to the next round:

                             

Joseph McElderry, Stacey Solomon, Danyl Johnson and Olly Murs will perform next Saturday to fight for the first place.

When last two contestants were announced on X Factor 2009 final 7th show majority of the viewers including head judge Simon Cowell were in shock. We expected  John and Edward be there, but Olly Murs who is definitely one of the candidate to win was there also by number of viewers vote. I can understand why judge Dannii Minogue asked her question, "are we in singers competition or not"? You need to have great imagination to place John and Edward and Lloyd above Olly. 

Nevertheless, Simon’s shock was understandable but is not he sorry for his act regarding Lucie? Maybe, I don’t know but hope he is.

My wife was crying to see Olly there. And it was great relief when three judges finally decided that John and Edward should leave. They are nice guys and they are very popular between youngsters but this is "singers competition", so it was very fair decision at the end.

                             

Five sontestants will continue their jorney to the top: Danyl Johnson, Joseph McElderry, Stacey Solomon, Lloyd Daniels and Olly Murs.

Who will be next to leave? You decide! Competition is really heavy now, four contestants from these five each might be a winner but all five are real talents.

Like amazing Suzanne Boyle and Mariah Carey who shown their talent on Sunday show. Millions viewers enjoyed their beautiful songs. Who knows who will be next world’s pop star like Mariah Carey, may be the future winner of this competition.

The result of X Factor 2009 Final fifth show probably shocked the majority of viewers.

Head judge SimonCowell’s decision to apply for people’s vote result instead of making his own choice of the contestant who will leave the show was absolutely horrible from my point of view. And many viewers agree with me. Simon made it doubt what he said many times about real talent.

If you remember what Saimon said after Lucie Jones performance you will agree that on Sunday Saimon made a bad trick. Just to remind you what happened on Saturday show watch this video and pay attention on Simon’s word:

                              x factor 2009 final, simon cowell, lucie jones

It was absolutely unfair in respect of Lucie, she was really one of the favourite of X Factor 2009.

Tweens John and Edwards may have some charm and support of youngsters but there is no way to compaire their singing ability. Who else will be the victime of this dirty game?

In any case brothers are in for next round together with

Forth round of X Factor 2009 talent show was over last Sunday with surprising result.

Twins, John and Edwards were voted by the public to continue competition despite of their poor singing performance. I wonder how many more talented contestents will be out of competition because of public votes for John and Edward. Do you think that Simon need to start preparation for quick leave the country?

Rachel Adedeji sis not survive third time, she is out viewers’ vote. Head judge Simon Cowell decided to challenge her popularity making judges’s score 2:2. Here is her last performance:

                              x factor 2009, talent show, rachel adedeji                                  

Lloyd will continue competition despite of his pure performance this time. Lucky guy!

My favourite is still Olly, great performance and he is becoming better and better with each phase. Jo, Jamie, Jucie amd Stacey are following him. They are all very good, so competition is becoming stronger and stronger. Danyl needs to change his attitude, only the strongest person will win, and he looks rather lost on the stage.

Simon Cowell – An Idol Of Our Times

simon cowell, x factor, american idol, libra, mars, jupiterIt is my belief that the popularity of the American Idol and X-factor judge, Simon Cowell is down to a recognition, deep in the belly of the collective, that it’s healthy to revolt against sycophancy and tell it like it is. There’s certainly nothing plastic, or false, about Mr Cowell’s honesty on his talent search show.

Infact, it seems that Simon was born with a form of Tourettes Syndrome. Every time he’s called to judge someone, he hears them sing and exhibits an uncontrollable urge to say what millions are thinking — but few would dare utter out loud. His no-holds barred approach resonates strongly in the psyche of the ‘authenticity challenged’ millions worldwide who are saying, "Hey, it’s great to see you" or "Have a nice day", whilst really wanting to tell the person to take a hike.

This is Simon’s fascination; his ability to eschew any facade and still be accepted by the social elite. In his uniform of tight black tee shirts, he is like a modern day comic book hero. Superman may have his costume of indestructibility but Simon has his cloak of opinion, and uses it to great effect.

Looking to his birth chart it’s easy to locate the letter that Simon Cowell should wear on his body; P for Pluto or Power. This is the secret of his success. Venus, ruler of his Sun is in close conjunction with Pluto, in the picky, detail oriented sign of Virgo. The Venus/Pluto conjunction is perfect symbolism for his ability to take singers (Venus) and transform (Pluto) their life and fortunes.

From a wider standpoint though, as viewers we are not responding to Simon, per se, but to the energies of Neptune (plastic, imagery, illusion, music) in Aquarius (the collective). Throughout the 1990’s and early 2000’s we were all subjected to an incessant barrage of images on celluloid, or via broadcast and print media, about how perfect and harmonious our lives and interactions with one another should be. Unfortunately, the majority of us were merging into that ideal of perfection, rather than living authentically and being who we are. Now though, the illusion is slowly beginning to shatter.

When someone like Simon comes to public awareness he embodies the shadow side, whilst also appealing to the ideal – hence the title of the show. Like the ‘perfect’ celebrity who shocks us with their anorexia or drugs battle, revealing a hitherto unguessed fallibility, unconsciously Simon Cowell represents the shadow of the collective psyche and has forced us to look at the side that we would rather deny exists. This is perfectly expressed through Neptune sextile to his Venus/Pluto conjunction and is reiterated by his Moon (midday) being close to the Galactic Centre. Simon’s birthtime is not publicly available but, as I have noted before, people who are born with a personal planet close to the Galactic Centre at 26 Sag, often seem to come to worldwide prominence.

Simon Philip Cowell was born on 7 October 1959 in Brighton, England. It is commonly believed that Libra is the sign of diplomacy with a penchant for sitting on the fence. However many in the legal profession, and those who act as Judges in any connotation, are often born under the sign. Librans may have to weigh up decisions about themselves but, when it comes to dealing with other people, they get to the point quickly and succinctly (Aries rules 7th).

Mars in aspect to Simon’s Mercury increases the ability to be ‘cutting.’ Additionally with Saturn (the planet of authority) and Jupiter (the planet of Judges) in their own signs, he is confident of his ‘rulings’. This Mars in sextile aspect to Uranus (and the Moon at midday) speaks of his delight in shocking the public and generally stirring things up a little. Sextiles always point to communication or travel issues and the same planets incline him to be to-and-froing in his ‘flash’ cars, or private jets.

For someone who makes a living out of handling images it is hardly surprising that Simon Cowell should manage his own extremely skillfully. For all his apparent arrogance though, rest assured that this is someone who is his own worst critic, who sets impossibly high standards for himself and can even be shy.

The Moon in close proximity to his natal Saturn reveals that his emotional control is as strictly controlled as his public image; but what you see is not necessarily what you get. Although he openly flirts with Paula Abdul, assiduously cultivates an image of being a ladies man and is seen to be in a relationship with Terri Seymour, rumors persist about Mr Cowell’s sexual persuasion. Astrological correspondences simply cannot denote whether someone is gay for that’s a matter of personal choice. What is revealed with this birthchart is that with Mars conjunct the Sun in Libra, sextile from experimental Uranus, this person is likely to be charismatic — to members of both sexes. Combine this with Venus conjunct Pluto and, well, let’s just say, I’m sure Simon Cowell has great success in the ‘lurve’ department but probably ensures his lover hangs up his/her clothes and signs the Official Secrets Act before any encounter. With Mars in the sign of Venus, which is itself in the sign of Mercury, this tells us he probably prefers his lovers to be slightly androgynous looking, youthful, and clean! He’ll be particularly attracted to exotic looking women (Moon Sag).

Here’s a man who is literally idolised because he embodies the societal dream for fame and riches. However before those who aren’t desirous of ‘fools gold’ rush to pledge their distaste for the Man, let me just conclude by saying that without Simon Cowell in this world, a large proportion of the population would still equate candor with social and business suicide.

Cowell has shown there is another way. If only politicians could see that truth is a bitter but necessary pill, and doesn’t preclude adoration, then he will have done us all a great service and moved us a step closer towards a more honest society. In this respect he truly has become a powerful truth idol of our times!

Previous Winners of the X Factor

The X Factor 2009 is set to hit our screens again in just under ten days; it’s amazing that the time of year is once again truly upon us. X Factor for me signals the end of summer and the beginning of the cold winter months. I am certain that the show will once again have millions of viewers tuning in and this year’s show is set to be even bigger and better than any other year. Simon Cowell has indicated that he wants to find a worldwide superstar again. So in the run up to the show, let’s take a look at some of the previous winners and where they are down.

                                                 Steve Brookstein

                             

Steve Brookstein was the winner of the first ever series, the X Factor was still fresh for the public who had been used to the Pop Idol format, so probably a lot of talented singers were waiting for the more successful at the time Pop Idol auditions to begin. There was a bit of talent and one was in the form of Steve Brookstein, Steve shot to number one with his debut single and then disappeared out of the limelight after he was dropped from his record label.

                                                   Shayne Ward

                                

The second season of X Factor started to produce some real and unique talent and personally the second season helped X factors shelf life, simply because the public saw their was talent. Shayne ward went on to sell millions of singles worldwide and dominate countries such as Asia; a new album is planned for 2009.

                                                        Leona Lewis

                             

The X Factor had truly built up momentum by the third series and this is one that the public will always remember. Leona Lewis literally came on the show and blew every one away. Since the show Leona has gone on to become a multi platinum selling artists, her singles have shot straight to number one and she has been the one of the most successful UK acts to ever break America.

                                                     Leon Jackson                      

                                                 

After the two successful seasons of the X Factor, there was bound to be one failure, the fourth season just really did not cut it and I do believe that there was much talent. Personally I believe the fourth season was more about the judges as Danni Minogue was introduced. Leon went straight to number one with his debut single, but failed to impress after. In March 2009 he was dropped from the Sony record label.

                                                   Alexandra Burke

                             

The most recent series again saw some good talent come through, the winner Alexandra Burke shot straight to number one with her debut single and her album is set for release in October 2009. The show also produced JLS who were runners up and have since launched a successful career.

Hay, how it may happen that competitors without any vocal talent have been voted for next round and the bright star who is one of the srongest competitors was placed on the edge of survival? There is something wrong here! It is singers’ competition, to win the contestent needs to sing at least good.

X Factor Sanday’s show definitely shocked may viewers by the result of people’s votes.

I don’t think that we expected to see Danyl Johnson at the bottom two results. And I cann’t agree with judge Cheryl Cole decision, but it was up to her to decide.

I am very glad that finally Danyl was on the track again but he should be there from the beginning.                    

                             

The good surprice was new Rachel’s appearance, it changed voters’ mind. She became nice young girl with strong voice. Thanks to people who are working on her image!

                            

Stacey was not of her best this time but public like this girl and she is in again.

                            

As usually, Olly, Jamie, Lucie, Joseph performed very well and they were recognised by the viewers accordingly. lloyd is in also but he still struggling to build his confidence, hopefully it will come during the competition. 

                           

                           

                           

                           

                           

It’s a pity that Loui’s group Miss Frank had to leave the contest, girls peroformance at Saturday show was pleasant suprise, girls definitely improved a lot. And I hope that they will find their way as a vocal group, they have something to become known. 

                           

So who is your favourite? Who will be the next to leave? Let’s wait till next Saturday, November 1st.

The 12 best contestants of X Factor 2009 have started the fight of their life.

The first round that took place on Saturday 10 th of September and Sunday 11th was completed with rather predictable result. As many viewers agreed, the weakest link, girls group Kandy Rain is out of competition.

But there were two surprises on Sunday’s show. John and Edwards were moved to next stage by viewers’ votes and Rachel Adedeji was place in the position to compete with Kandy Range to survive. 

After two last contenders finished their acts the judges’ verdict was 2:2, Simon made very clever decision to vote for Kandy Rain. So final decision who will be out was taken on the basis of viewers votes. Rachel Adedeji joined lucky 10 contenders.

Here is final act of Kandy Rain:

Judges of X Factor 2009 show have announced the best 3 acts in each 4 groups.

They are:

The boys:   

                                                     Joseph Mc Elderley

                              

                                                           Lloyd Daniels 

                              

                                                       Rikki Loney 

                              

The girls:

                                                        Lucie Jones    

                              

                                                      Rachel Adedeji

                              

                                                        Stacey Solomon

                                                             

Over 25s:

                                                        Danyl Johnson          

                              

                                                     Jamie Archer

                              

                                                        Olly Murs

                              

The group:

                                                  John and Edward

                              

                                                           Kandy Rain

                              

                                                      Miss Frank

                              

Judges had rather difficult tasks to make their choice, especially Dannii Minogue and Simon Cowell who had, from our point of view, the strongest contestants.

Dannii has the strongest group this year and Stacey Solomon, Lucie Jones and  Rachel Adedji are very strong contenders to go.

Simon went for Jamie, Olly and Danyl, and these guys have all potential to reach final.

Cheryl supprised the viewers by not putting Duane on the list of final three. Joseph, Rikki and Lloyd will have very difficult task to survive because of their age and lack of confidence, at least at this stage of competition.

As far as the groups, this year Louis has the weakest contenders and we don’t think that John and Edwards, Kandy Rain and Miss Frank will go far in this contest.

But sometimes strange things happen, so let’s see what result first shows on Saturday and Sunday will bring.

Who Will Win the X-Factor Fashion Stakes?

The X-Factor returned to our screens on Saturday and the show ended up with what Simon Cowell described as the best first audition ever from school teacher Danyl Johnson. It was a really great performance, certainly not possible in the old format in front of just the judges, but with the live audience Danyl set out to entertain, and boy did he entertain.

Cheryl Cole and Danni Minogue both looked fantastic. Danni sported a great new bob hairstyle and looked very stylish. As usual she was seen in her trademark one shoulder outfits. Danni’s look on the show has always been marked by blouses, knee length skirts and dresses, and great statement shoes. This perhaps indicates her more mature years over Cheryl.

Cheryl wore agreat Tibi dress, and sported a coiffed pony tail look. She appeared to have adopted more colourful items, although as the auditions were through the summer maybe that was an influence. Think of Cheryl and you think of short dresses, tightly fitting outfits, leather trousers and platform heels. As the most talked about member of glamour girl group Girls Aloud, she is a trendsetter rather than a follower of fashion.

Do they compete which each other over fashion? They say no, but no doubt they both want to look better than their fellow judge, although I am sure they would not dare to be heard in public saying rival.

My money is still on Cheryl getting more fashion headlines, but that is more to do with her looks and youth, and popularity, than necessarily dressing better. Danni has her style, and no doubt will also have designers wanting to dress her when the live finals come around.

As for who will win in the fashion stakes? Hard to tell, but there will be plenty of great dresses that will have celebrity wannabes clamouring to get a similar style in the coming weeks.

Simon Cowell: The Man Behind the Scowl

Ah, Simon Cowell: the wit, the jabs, the accent. If you’re like me – a fan of American Idol (Hi Sanjaya!) – you probably find yourself having a love/hate relationship with good ol’ Simon. On one hand he’s cute, he’s funny, and he’s extremely honest: he’s seemingly what every girl wants to find in a man. But, on the other hand, he’s a little too honest. He’s not the type of guy a woman should approach in a new pair of jeans and ask, "Do these make me look fat?" Sometimes Simon should simply plead the fifth.

simon cowell, pop idolStill, you have to respect his honesty. In a world where lying and brown nosing run rampant, Simon has taken a stand and said what most people are afraid to say: exactly what he thinks. This leaves many of us curious about who he really is; just who is the Cowell behind the scowl?

Simon Cowell was born in Brighton, England to a music industry property executive and a socialite. From a large family – and here we thought he was an only child – Simon has three half brothers, a half sister, and a younger brother. A family of success, many of his siblings are multimillionaires.

After dropping out of school at the age of 17, Simon teetered between a few random jobs before, with the help of his father, landing a job in the mail room at EMI Music Publishing. Going from the mail room to where Simon is now may seem like something straight out of television, but for Simon – a man known for blending TV with real life – this "television like plot" proved to be his reality.

He soon began to climb the ranks of EMI, periodically leaving to pursue other endeavors, only to return when those endeavors failed. In 1985, however, the failing temporarily ceased: Simon, along with a coworker, launched an independent record label called Fanfare Records. For four years Fanfare saw success, but in 1989 – when the mother company of Fanfare discontinued – Simon was met with bankruptcy, debt, and a move back in with his parents.

In late 1989, Simon landed a job as an A&R representative for BMG. Here he signed a number of pop acts who were well received and began releasing novelty recordings. These featured, among others, songs from The Teletubbies and The Power Rangers.

In 2001, Simon was given his proverbial gavel and became a judge on Pop Idol, a British television reality series that featured undiscovered young talent in the United Kingdom. Like its spin-off, American Idol, Pop Idol involved viewers calling in to vote for their favorites.

Born from Pop Idol, American Idol hit the airwaves in 2002 and – with Simon at the judging helm – became an instant hit. The success of American Idol is based on many factors – America’s love for music, the excitement of discovering talent that would otherwise go unnoticed, the ability to participate in the choice that is made – but one huge factor is simply Simon. Without people tuning in to see what he will say, American Idol would not have garnered such a huge fan base.

While working on American Idol, Simon also serves on the judging panel of The X Factor, a British talent show airing on Saturdays. Produced by Simon’s production company, The X Factor aims to find performers who possess that indescribable factor capable of making them a star. Unlike Pop Idol or American Idol, The X Factor has no age limit, allowing anyone over 14 to participate, and allows both solo singers and groups to enter the competition.

In 2006, Simon secured himself – both financially and in pop culture – by signing a five year contract worth 38 million. In addition to American Idol, Simon is involved with American Inventor, America’s Got Talent, Celebrity Duets, Grease is the Word, and Rock Rivals.

Love him or hate him – or go back and forth – American Idol would not be the same without Simon Cowell. He brings an element of surprise and brutal honesty to the show. Sometimes he seems cruel, but most of the time he simply appears like a man whose bark is way worse that his bite.

The biggest thing fans really have to appreciate about him is that when he sees someone who is a good singer, he doesn’t play games: he tells them they’re great and when he says it we know he means it. It is a sentiment dear to the heart, and one he conveys in my imagination each time I sing in the shower.

Can Cheryl Cole Break America?

Cheryl ColeFor those of you that do not know who Cheryl Cole is, she is one of the members of the Girls Aloud group and married to footballer Ashley Cole. Cheryl Cole, who was formerly know as Cheryl Tweedy was born in Newcastle – upon Tyne, England. She is one of five children in her family.

Before getting her big break in Girls Aloud, Cheryl won various modelling gigs as well as appearing on TV commercials and shows. It was in 2002 that Cheryl auditioned for Popstars: The Rivals, singing S Club 7’s "Have You Ever". After singing her way to win a place in the band she has gone on to become a national hit.

Cheryl Cole, X Factor, Simon CowellIn 2008 Cheryl’s career moved to the next level as it was announced she would be a judge next to Simon Cowell on the popular X Factor show, which was widely accepted by the British public. She went on to win the show with one of her acts Alexandra Burke.

But now it is suggested that Cheryl could be well on her way to crack the American market. Although a very daunting task that a lot of people have failed to achieve, with the help of fellow judge Simon Cowell and his ever growing popularity, it is a feat that is in sight of being achieved.

It is rumoured that Simon Cowell is helping Cheryl Cole obtain a working visa for the US market and that he is trying to organise an interview with Oprah Winfrey to boost her profile.

Oprah Winfrey, Girls AloudBut is this only about launching Cheryl Cole or is it a great approach to launch Girls Aloud? We all know that it is very hard to break open the USA music market, but with getting in Cheryl Cole first and building up her profile in the USA, it would then become a lot easier to launch a successful band.

Simon Cowells recently successful launch of Leona Lewis has made his profile a lot stronger in the form of bringing over talent from the UK. But to be honest Girls Aloud are no Leona Lewis and they have nowhere near her vocal range. But I feel with the correct type of music, maybe a more of an urban take then Girls Aloud can crack the market in no time.

                                                   GIRLS ALOUD

                               

Although it will be a hard task for Cheryl to balance all of her schedule including cracking America, being a judge on the X Factor, touring with Girls Aloud and spending time with her Husband, I am sure it is achievable and we all know that the harder a person works the more benefits they get. So let’s see how it all turns out.

X Factor 2009 contest is at the final stage of nomination of 12 finalists that will be announced by judges on Sunday 4th of September. It will be very hard task for judges because most of the contestants in boys, girls and over 25s categories are rather good. We shall see what judges will decide. 

Below you will find the information about some changes of the foprmat of the show in 2009.

X Factor Reveals a New Format For 2009

x factor, x factor 2009, simon cowel, louis walsh, cheryl coleWe are currently in the middle of a great summer and we all know when the summer comes to an end because we begin to hear the X Factor theme tune, which has become a great part of British telly. The X Factor is probably one of the more successful reality shows on TV which is up their with Britain’s Got Talent, which has just finished its 2009 run. Britain’s Got Talent pulled in some of its largest viewers to date and it also greatly took America by storm, so this year’s X Factor has to get a whole lot bigger and a whole lot better.

But there will be a big change for the 2009 version of the X Factor, for so long people have been auditioning only in front of the judges and the camera crew. But Simon Cowell has announced that people will instead audition in front of a live audience, something pretty similar to Britain’s Got Talent. The audience will be able to boo the auditionees off of the stage if they are not good enough.

This move could be both a good one and a bad one, the reason for saying this is because the good aspects will be that the public will be involved right from the beginning stages of the show. The bad aspect is that we must remember that this show is not like Britain’s Got Talent, this is a singing contest and the more nervous someone gets the less likely they are going to be to sing well. Besides from that we may not be able to hear each acts voice very well because of the booing from the audience.

On the other hand the team have indicated that it is not the audience that are going to be in control, the judges will still have the final verdict. The panel on the other hand remain the same with Simon Cowell, Louis Walsh, Cheryl Cole and Danni Minogue. Auditions have already began for the series and with almost three months left for the show to air I am sure there will be much more in store such as act and judges arguing and walking out.

All in all it is looking set to become another great show with lots of talent and controversy, I just hope that they are able to find another great star like Leona Lewis, Alexandra Burke and Shayne Ward.

The X Factor 2009

This talent competition produces better and better talent year on year, and 2009 is no exception! At the time of writing this article there have been only three shows, and I have already chosen TEN potential winners. Admittedly some are more potential than others, but if you’ll permit me, I’ll share my list with you along with my thoughts on the artists.

In no particular order, I have…

Jamie ‘Afro’ Archer. Auditions 2.

                               jamie archer

This 33 year old has been trying to get a big break for a long time, feeling that his talents were not appreciated in the small venues that he’d played before this show.

He performed Sex On Fire by the Kings Of Leon in a manner that Simon Cowell described as ‘fearless’. I was not personally familiar with this track, so after his performance I went off to listen to the original. Oh My God! In my opinion Jamie Afro did a FAR better job than the original group! He brought his own passion for music and an ability to involve the audience together in a perfect fusion. He’s got a great rock singer voice and the ability to perform in the studio or live on stage with equal panache.

Jade Fubara. Auditions 3.
Jade is a 17 year old school girl with big dreams and a big voice, along with a dedicated group of supporters.

Young Jade amazed me, I must admit. Her Acapella rendition of And I’m Telling You was without doubt impressive. She wowed the crowd with her note-perfect singing and powerful voice. I feel this raw talent could go a very, very long way.

Lucie Jones. Auditions 3.

                               lucie jones  

This Welsh delight comes from the village of Pentyrch, a place so small it could be described as a ‘one 4×4 town’. A charming young lady, unafraid to take on one of the biggest songs in pop history.

When Lucie announced to the panel that she was going to perform Whitney Houston’s song I Will Always Love You, Simon Cowell asked her if she was "sure she wanted to perform that song". She was! Lucie performed this oh-so-hard-to-sing track with apparent ease. Her clear and perfectly pitched voice was used to great effect, and was sung ‘her way’, without trying to impersonate Whitney.

Daryl Markham. Auditions 2.

                               Daryl Markham

Daryl is a 40 year old carpenter from West Sussex. He was meant to be on last year’s show, but the dates clashed with his brother’s wedding day, so of course that came first. Sadly, he lost his brother to lung cancer shortly afterward.

Although emotionally charged after telling his story to the panel, Daryl was still able to perform Rod Stewart’s song I Don’t Want To Talk About It. Louis Walsh described his voice as amazingly commercial and I concur. Like Lucie he performed the track without trying to impersonate the original artist, and it worked very well for him. I just hope that revealing his personal tragedy is not going to influence the voting in any way. The big test for Daryl, I feel, will be getting through boot-camp.

Miss Fitz. Auditions 2.

                               Miss Fitz 

A girl-group with a clever name and a clever twist. One of the girls, Gemma, got through auditions in 2006 (Leona Lewis’s year), but didn’t make it through boot-camp. Now she’s back with fellow brunette Marina and a blond girl whose name (I think) is Maikin.

Most often, a girl-group will attempt to perform another girl-group song and fail miser 4f7b ably doing so. These young ladies were smarter than that. Marina announced that they were going to perform Britney Spears track Womanizer, but with a twist, and what a twist it was! They used a style that I can only describe as a cross between Big Band and The Andrews Sisters. A resounding success taking a modern song and taking it back to the 1940’s and making it work incredibly well.

Rozelle Phillip. Auditions 2.

                               Rozelle Phillip

This 21 year old is originally from Trinidad and Tobago and moved to the UK a year ago. Brought up by her grandmother, she decided that she MUST enter the competition after seeing Leona Lewis win. With the full support and urging of her grandmother her she is.

This girl is a Diva in the making! Another big performance, this time of Jennifer Hudson’s track One Night Only. Perfectly delivered, her eyes were full of delight and a hint of wickedness that enhanced her performance to huge effect. She is another natural-born singer and performer.

Danyl Johnson. Auditions 1.

                               Danyl Johnson

This 27 year old school teacher had Simon Cowell standing and applauding at the end of his audition. At round-up time, Simon described it as "single handedly the best first audition I have ever heard". An accolade indeed!

Singing The Beatles track With A Little Help From My Friends, this audition was a winner right from the start. Performed with the passion and feeling of a natural live entertainer, he had the audience and the panel totally with him with ease. Keep an eye on this one!

Stacey Soloman. Auditions 1.

                               stacey solomon

Ok, so she’s 19 years old, she’s blond, she’s from Dagenham in Essex (UK readers will already be forming stereo-typed image), and she came on stage in tiny shorts showing long, perfect legs.

So what does she choose to sing? Louis Armstrong’s classic, What A Wonderful World. It is no exaggeration to say that her rendition took the entire panel by surprise. A clear, sweet and perfectly controlled voice which Simon said was "really, really good", and I humbly agree! I’m still blown away by the amount of talent I’ve reviewed so far, and there’s more to come.

Joseph McElderry. Auditions 1.

                               Joseph McElderry

An 18 year old student from Cheryl Cole’s neck of the woods, South Shields. This young man had never performed before an audience larger than about 100 and a few charity gigs.

This guy sung a tough song with heart-touching perfection. His treatment of Dance With My Father by Luther Vandross was simply wonderful. Already a song that brings a tear to the eye, Joseph’s clear and strong voice did it full justice and would have put a tear in the eyes of the Presidents of Mount Rushmore! I believe this young man is destined for great things.

Lloyd Daniels. Auditions 3.

                               Lloyd Daniels

He’s a 16 year old student from South Wales; he’s also blond and a young ladies dream! Before X Factor, he’d only ever done Karaoke and school plays. So quite a transition!

At first Lloyd tried to perform I’m Yours by Jason Mraz. It started well enough, but although he didn’t lose the lyrics or his timing, his vocals were unable to keep up with the formulated pitch-changes that make the song a lot harder to perform than most people think. Thankfully, Cheryl Cole had spotted that this young man had potential, and stopped the audition so that Lloyd could try another song. She could see that audition nerves were affecting him and convinced Simon Cowell to give him a second shot. So Simon asked Lloyd to sing something else acapella. Pushing his nerves aside he launched into the R Kelly track If I Could Turn Back The Hands Of Time. Without the backing track, Lloyd was a little faster in tempo than the original, but he certainly did not do it harm by doing so. Another one to watch!
